When not hiking dogs, you can find Sarah working as a dog trainer with Sublime Canine Services. Sublime Canine is currently offering classes in Halifax at Happy Hounds Doggy Daycare on Lady Hammond Road, and their agility classes are held at Nova Dogsport in Harrietsfield.
Sublime Canine focuses on using reward based training methods to help create a trusting relationship and bond with your dog. They are never too young or too old to learn! The American Veterinary Society of Animal Behaviour's position statement is that puppies should be taking every safe opportunity possible to socialize before they are fully vaccinated. They say "In general, puppies can start puppy socialization classes as early as 7-8 weeks of age. Puppies should receive a minimum of one set of vaccines at least 7 days prior to the first class and a first deworming." Sublime Canine offers classes in Puppy Socialization, Basic Life Skills, Advances Life Skills, Trick Training, Loose Leash Walking Skills, Private Training Sessions, Agility, Online Classes, and keep an eye out for more new classes in 2020-21!
