Training & Education

🐾 Empowered Learning for Dogs & Their Humans

We believe dog training isn’t about control — it’s about connection, communication, and mutual respect. Our training and education programs are designed to help you understand your dog’s unique needs, build trust, and foster a deeper bond rooted in compassion and clarity.

🧠 What We Offer:

  • In-Home Dog Training

    Tailored sessions where we work directly with you and your dog in your own space — where behaviour matters most. Great for reactivity, leash work, household manners, and relationship-building.

  • Specialized Consultations

    Focused support for complex behaviour challenges or unique cases — including reactivity, fear-based aggression, anxiety, multi-dog households, and more. We help you navigate the root causes and create a realistic, holistic plan of action.

  • Education for Humans

    We’re passionate about teaching you how to “speak dog.” We offer learning tools, compassionate coaching, and workshops that empower you with insight — not intimidation.

🌿 A Holistic Approach That Works

Rooted in canine psychology, behavioural science, and heart-led practices, our method goes beyond basic obedience. We help you build lasting change from the inside out — no dominance, no quick fixes, just deep understanding and sustainable solutions.

Our Approach

More Than Training—It’s a Whole New Understanding

At Wildwood K9, we don’t just teach dogs to sit and stay—we teach humans to understand the hearts and minds behind every bark, growl, or wag. Our training philosophy is rooted in dog psychology and behavior, not just obedience. We believe that true change happens when we look beyond surface-level “bad” behaviors and get curious about the why beneath them. That’s where the real magic begins.

Our team lives and breathes dog mentality—we study it, observe it, respect it, and most importantly, we speak it. With over a decade of experience in animal behavior, emergency vet care, and real-world training scenarios, we bring more than credentials—we bring devotion. We don't train dogs into submission—we guide them toward confidence, calm, and connection. We don’t force compliance; we foster communication.

This is training that empowers you, not just your dog. Whether you're navigating reactivity, anxiety, aggression, or simply want a deeper bond with your companion, our private and group training programs offer personalized guidance rooted in empathy and real behavioral science.

Testimonials

  • We feel incredibly lucky to have found Tyler and Tasha from MNM-K9! They fostered our dog, Churro, before we adopted him, and it’s clear that their care and dedication played a huge role in shaping him into the amazing pup he is today. Since then, they’ve continued to be an invaluable part of Churro’s life by helping us with training to make sure he’s behaved and happy.

    Churro absolutely loves going to stay with them for boarding too. He gets so excited every time we drop him off! The fun pack walks and the loving environment they provide make it feel like a second home for him. What really sets them apart is how they involve our whole family in the process. They’ve included our kids in the training and have been so patient in teaching them how to help train and understand our dog, which has been both fun and empowering for them.

    We couldn’t ask for a better trainer, mentor, and extended family for our dog. Highly recommend!

  • Tyler and his associates are the best dog trainers that you can ever find! It doesn't matter what breed of dog you have! He was recommended to us by a friend and it was just the best experience from day one! We have a female doberman (now 5 years old) who is not easy to handle! He met her when she was just a puppy and is the only one from day one that we trust 100% and do not need to worry about anything! Our dog stayed with him so many times when we go on vacation and always had the best everything (training, outside exercise and hanging out with other dogs, food, accommodation and unconditional love). Not to forget to mention, always available if you have any kind of questions about food, ticks, no appetite, separation anxiety, spayed from skunk, better training or vet visits(this is only some things that I can remember we asked him through the years). Simply just one of a kind who dedicated his life to dogs! We would recommend him to anyone in a heartbeat!

  • This facility is like in home dog boarding. it offers lots of playtime, enrichment and most importantly qualified, experienced owners to keep your pet safe. Wildwood k9 have helped our rescue with some of our most difficult dogs and we are forever grateful for their help. I recommend this place for training and for boarding. Lovely, quiet setting too.
