About

Cindy is a Certified Professional Dog Trainer (CPDT-KA) and Fear Free Certified Professional (FFCP) who believes strongly in continuing education. She loves nothing more than to dig into many different dog training and behaviour books, seminars and webinars. Her knowledge and passion for dog behaviour will aid clients in forming a lasting relationship with their dogs, based on mutual trust and understanding.

Cindy has attended two Canine Sport Scent Detection seminars in Winnipeg as well as a Treibball seminar in Wisconsin. She attended the Association of Professional Dog Trainers conferences in San Diego, California, and Las Vegas, Nevada as well as The Pet Professional Guild Summit in Tampa, Florida and Portland Oregon. She is a proud member of the Pet Professional Guild and believes in a force-free and fear-free training philosophy.

Cindy’s love of dogs goes back many years. When her first Great Dane Evy came into her life, she began to realize how important training was to both of them. The initial meeting between Evy and her future husbands Border Collie Shadie did not go as she would have hoped, which led her to seek out professional help to see what could be done to work out their differences. From the first consult, she was hooked and made the decision to professionally pursue her passion. In 2009, Cindy started apprenticing in group classes, behaviour consults and one on one training, which quickly led to teaching on her own.

Cindy shares her home with her husband and their dog, Sawyer.
