I was referred to Andrea through multiple friends after a disastrous trip to Oregon with my English Setter puppy Finn. To start, we did a week long board/train where Andrea introduced an e-collar, which I was extremely nervous to do by myself. Even after such a short stint, I picked up a completely different dog. We continued training through 1:1 sessions where we focused on recall, place work, settling, playing with other dogs; so much stimuli. I found the 1:1 sessions to be absolutely invaluable as you often don’t realize how quickly your dog can be the one training you! She was insightful, offering a plethora of tools for the toolbox, which can be so crucial as our dogs are exposed to different settings. We still continue to visit day camp, where she introduces Finn to anything and everything, including group hikes all the way to running alongside a bike! We actually just returned to Oregon for our annual trip and the difference a year can make is absolutely astounding. If you want to give your dog the best possible life, she is really the best!

andrea is the BEST. we have had the most amazing experience working with her and our pit/husky/gsd mix. she catered a training plan to help us achieve the life we wanted for our dog, and has been so supportive along the way. she prioritizes connection with your dog, and understanding dog psychology which has helped our dog gain confidence and so much more responsible freedom. we get so many compliments on how well trained our dog is, i recommend everyone to andrea!

I can’t sing the praises of Andrea enough. We have had our pup working with her since he was around 6 months old (he is now almost 2) just because we love her and all her programs. They can build on eachother so easily and all are so effective! We started with her virtual reset which helped our high energy Australian cattle dog/Australian shepherd settle and learn to be bored and it saved my mental health. Having a puppy is so hard and it gave us a sense of sanity back. We enrolled in her relationship reset to work on using a slip lead and loose leash walking and building a relationship instead of just obedience and it has changed our lives! We talk almost weekly about how we are so happy that our boy is responsive on the leash and his pack drive has really increased. During this process, Andrea gave me the time and attention I needed to be able to do the moves safely and effectively We did a board and train to tune up some behaviors and through that process, Andrea did e-collar training with him. I never really thought we would use but boy was I wrong! I love it. It gives our pup so much freedom but gives me confidence to keep him safe and responsive. We now use her for her weekly day camps to help him socialize and stay calm around other pups and I look forward to it every week. He is so fulfilled and happy just spending time around her and other pups but still staying calm. 1000% would recommend to anyone who is looking for an amazing trainer.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Andrea from Canyons Canine Training is truly a lifesaver! We enrolled our 6-month-old heeler mix puppy, Titou, to the three-week board and train program while we were away, and the results were astounding. Thanks to Andrea's energy, knowledge, and dedication, Titou underwent a remarkable transformation. From a puppy lacking direction to a dog who now understands boundaries, leash/e-collar pressure, and loose leash walking, Andrea's guidance was invaluable. Not only did Andrea equip Titou with the skills he needs to thrive, but she also empowered us as owners. Her thorough guidance and clear communication provided us with the tools to maintain and reinforce Titou's training effectively. The compliments we receive on our walks now, and the positive feedback from family and friends, speak volumes about the effectiveness of Andrea's work. Her genuine passion and commitment to her clients success make her the go-to choice. If you're looking for a deeper, more fulfilling relationship with your dog, Andrea at Canyons Canine Training is your answer.
