We can’t say enough great things about Kaitlyn at CANIS Dog Training! Our Australian Shepherd, Wren, absolutely adores her and it’s easy to see why. Kaitlyn truly understands the breed and how they think, which made such a difference in our training experience. She customized everything to fit our family, including working with our teenage daughters so we’re all consistent and confident with Wren. Thanks to Kaitlyn, Wren is now able to join us at restaurants and just about anywhere we go, which has been a game changer for our family. She’s also doing great with her off-leash training and continues to improve every day. We’ve learned so much and feel set up for long-term success. Highly recommend!

Every single person at Canis is AMAZING 👏🏽. The organization's customer service is very appreciated. From the front desk staff to our trainer, everyone is so professional and warm. Thank God for Christiana. We have been working with her and she has been patient, friendly and supportive with training Danuta, our 5-year-old German Shorthaired Pointer. I'm so lucky to have found Canis. This has truly been a great experience and investment. 10/10 recommend.

I took my little pup, Oso, to CANIS for behavior problems. Christiana, Brent, and everyone at CANIS have been so amazing with him. He went from walking in shy, not wanting me to leave the first day to quickly walking in happy and excited for each day at CANIS. He graduated in October and we’ve been back for group classes, grooming, and an occasional day club. He gets so excited every time we go back and absolutely adores Christiana (and everyone else there). I feel more confident taking him out in public and have learned so much about how to deal with/get ahead of his reactivity. Friends have said how much calmer he seems since his training. I highly recommend CANIS for anything and everything dog related. They listen to your story and truly care about all the dogs. From the moment I did my initial consult, I knew it was the right place for me and Oso.

Such an amazing place to send your dog. Staff genuinely cares about your pup and gets excited anytime they come thru the door. My dog Cody, a 3 year old blue heeler, was adopted from the LA Shelters 2 years ago. With basic training knowledge he was pretty great. Unfortunately we got ran up by two off leash giant german shepherds. Ever since then he’s been incredibly reactive towards other dogs. From then on the difficulties became more and more. Finally we found Canis. Having the first meeting we knew it was going to work out. Cody did a 4 month board and train with his trainer Brennen. Thank you so much. With a long road ahead of us, Cody can now be around other dogs without reacting all the time and home life has become so much easier. (If you know blue heelers, ya know what i’m talking bout). Cody now can go to restaurants, hikes and even Target!

I highly recommend CANIS! Kaitlyn is our hero. She made it possible for Chance and I to remain together. Through working with her I am relaxed and confident and in control Chance has moved passed his reactivity and is now a balanced and happy boy.
