Why choose us? What sets us apart from the rest? Why bring your beloved family member to Training Loyal Companions Academy? What makes us different?
I look at every dog I meet, as if it were my dog. With my canine education and knowledge, if this dog was placed in my hands today - what could I do to make things easier and create happiness for this dog? What can I do to decrease this dogs over arousal levels, high stress levels and anxiety levels? What can I do to create harmony in the home? What can I do to create RELIEF for this family?
When working with any dog, we need to OBSERVE your dogs behaviors, IDENTIFY the behavior concerns, understand what your dog is COMMUNICATING to you and build a PLAN on how we can create a feeling of RELIEF for your dog. Take the time to prioritize you dog training GOALS. The SMALLER the STEPS, the greater the SUCCESS.
RELIEF doesn’t happen over night. It takes time, commitment, patience and above all - COMPASSION.
Dog behavior training is best compared to a personal training program, a therapy program or a first session doctor’s appointment. It’s a journey and a process, we learn as we go and adjust when needed.
I am a huge vocabulary trainer, meaning if we set the right words in our heads, we set the positive mind set. By using words such as CONNECTION seeking, instead of ATTENTION seeking - it completley changes how we visualize our dogs behaviors.
I specialize in puppy training, starting at 8 weeks of age, setting up your home environment for best success, and decreasing and or eliminating behavior problems forming strength into adulthood where it takes much longer and longer commitment to uninstall. Working hard together on understanding communication, socialization and exposure into their new world ahead, being kind and patient, and consistent.
When giving your dog CHOICES we build CONFIDENCE creating the CONNECTION.
Looking forward to meeting you and working together!

Our canine friends have become part of our families, lets teach them the rules of the house and stop punishing them for being dogs. We chose to provide them with a good life. We provide them with shelter, food, companionship and love. In return they provide us with joy, happiness and above all loyalty.
Christie takes pride in her two dogs Amaya 10-year-old Akita and a 3 year old Australian Shepherd. We currently own two Guinea Pigs - Willow and Twitch.
In her spare time she enjoy running and has completed multiple Half Marathons and 5K events ranging from the Manitoba Half Marathon, to the Rock and Roll Marathon in Las Vegas Nevada.
You will find her in the summer months planting Lily flowers, enjoying gardening plucking carrots and eating strawberries from our strawberry patch. Christie enjoys photography with sun dogs, sun sets and sun rises on the Prairie Sky and enjoys spending time in any walking hiking trail.
Christie has many years of experience with dogs including:
Casper came into our home at 8 weeks of age. He has challenged me both professionally and personally, I am humbled by what I have learned with him. Casper is very high drive, extremely intelligent willing to learn anything, very workable dog.
Amaya arrived in our home at the age of 10 months. A sweet girl, with a sensitive personality. She is very lovable, everyone who meets her - just loves her. Amaya is not a fan of getting her paws wet, she will find all the driest spots to place her feet in the yard. She sheds twice a year for 6 months at a time.
Harvest is the sweetest most sensitive soul. A bouncing puppy learning all new things. She enjoys spending time with her human and canine family, night time couch snuggles and walks in the yard.
Group Dog Training Classes will be held at the St Norbert Community Centre.
The Hall is a 2800 SQFT room with direct access to washrooms, with outdoor training space
