Professional E-Collar Dog Training in Hamilton

We sent our 3-yr old Boxer, Nacho, to Scott and the Perfect Dog for Life team on a 7-day board & train. Nacho was a good boy but tended to get overly excited about people, dogs and other distractions. He pulled on walks and had an unreliable stay and recall.

Scott had Nacho walking loosely at his heel by day 2! By the end of the week, he was sitting off leash in a busy Costco, while shoppers passed by all around. Overall, he’s a calmer dog, looking to us for guidance, and his training is already making our lives much better.

While Nacho was with Scott, we received daily pictures and videos. The dogs sleep in Scott’s home instead of a kennel, which made a big difference for us. It’s clear Scott treats the animals well and cares about their success.

Can’t say enough about Scott and his team for giving us the tools for Nacho to succeed!

Calm, Reliable Control.
For The Perfect Life With Your Dog.

Why Hamilton Dog Owners Choose Us.

If your dog pulls you through your neighbourhood, embarrasses you at Gage Park, barks at every jogger on the Waterfront Trail, or turns into a completely different animal the moment there's a squirrel, another dog, or a crowd nearby — you're not alone. It's frustrating and stressful.

 

NOW HERE'S THE GOOD NEWS - IT'S FIXABLE!

We've already helped lots of Hamilton dog owners with their dog and would love the opportunity to work with you and your dog.

Proven with Hamilton dogs specifically.

We're not guessing how our training holds up in a busy city environment — we've already done it with Hamilton clients, in Hamilton's own streets and parks.

Expert Training, No Shortcuts.

You and your dog work directly with our professional, proven trainers, never a trainee or new hire. This means your dog benefits from our years of experience and consistent success.

With our Board & Train programs, we work with a maximum of two dogs per trainer so your dog receives the attention and training needed to achieve maximum success.

Training for Real-World Distractions.

Our unique 6,000 sq/ft indoor training facility and outdoor field lets us safely introduce your dog to a wide variety of noises and challenging distractions that help prepare them for life in Hamilton.

Daily Video Updates.

You deserve to know exactly what is happening with your dog every day of any Board & Train Program. We provide daily video updates so that you can see exactly how your dog is being treated, what they are learning, and how well they are progressing in their program. Daily updates help you understand what your dog is actually capable of and what you can expect when you take them home.

Owner Training and Support

It's simple, but not common. We support every single dog we train. All of our programs come with guaranteed ongoing support. If you have any issues, just reach out; we're here for you and your dog!

Scott was amazing with our sweet girl Daisy, she's a rescue with an unknown past, stranger danger issues, reactivity and low energy. We, trusting the process and Scott, are absolutely floored with the results of the 1 week ecollar training.

Before Perfect Dog for Life, taking her for a walk, even in secluded areas brought out anxiety and fear as she was reactive to everything, her threshold was so far, (almost 50meters) so taking her out and about was not an option. Coaxed by trainers and advice pages to use positive reinforcements and treats only gave us no results.

With Daisy now a 'graduate' of Scott's program, we have taken her out, walked past dogs, cyclists, children, joggers and even a chipmunk with almost perfect neutrality.

The gift Scott has given us of peace and the confidence to be a strong leader for our girl is phenomenal, and we will be forever grateful for him showing Daisy that the world isn't so scary if she just follows our lead.

For anyone that questions if this investment is worth it. Absofux*ingloutly!

If you already have e-collar equipment, we're happy to evaluate the gear you have to ensure it is appropriate for you and your dog.
