Yvette's teaching style put us on a path to success. She took the time to examine our process and broke down every precise detail of the technique step-by-step. She provided a correction, a demonstration and an explanation for why each action is so important. This precision and deeper understanding of how a dog learns is exactly what my 10-month pup Boston and I needed! Yvette has helped us connect with our pup, and both owner and pup are more confident because of it. Boston is on his way to being an 'Awesome Dog' for years to come!

Yvette has a thorough grasp of both the science of dog training and how to apply that science in everyday situations. Without a doubt, she will help your dog. But critically, she will also help you learn how to help your dog. It’s a combination that gets results!

I have used Awesome Dogs twice: first for a rescued feral husky mix that had trouble adapting to an urban lifestyle, and for a Chihuahua puppy. Both helped teach me how best to help my dog in real life situations. I went from having a husky that was a bite risk to being an avid 'dog parker'. You have to trust the process and put the work in. It's worth it.

We’ve gone to Yvette for adolescent dog training, and now Elliott sees her twice a week for enriched walks.
She is amazing!

We are so happy to have found Yvette! Her knowledge of animal behaviour is second to none, and she uses a ton of creative ways to address problem behaviour. Her analogies make it easier to understand the psychology behind the training she provides, and you can tell she genuinely cares about helping you and your dog communicate better. She's truly exceptional at what she does!
