Dog training programs at Hello Pets in North York include puppy training (starting at 8 weeks), basic obedience, advanced obedience with off-leash reliability, behavior modification for reactivity and aggression, immersive board-and-train with daily daycare, and private one-on-one sessions.

Foundation program for puppies as young as 8 weeks. Covers socialization with people and other dogs, core commands (sit, stay, come, down), crate training, bite inhibition, and housebreaking across [X] sessions over [X] weeks. Sessions use short, positive repetitions matched to a puppy’s attention span. Graduates are prepared for group daycare and confident real-world outings — less jumping, less nipping, and a puppy who comes when called.
For dogs of all ages who need reliable fundamentals. Covers sit, stay, come, heel, down, leave it, and loose-leash walking across [X] sessions over [X] weeks. Ideal for adolescent dogs who have outgrown puppy class, newly adopted dogs adjusting to routine, or owners who want consistent recall and calm leash behavior. Most dogs show measurable improvement in obedience and leash manners within the first 2–3 weeks.
For dogs with specific behavioral challenges — leash reactivity, dog-to-dog aggression, excessive barking, separation anxiety, fearfulness, or resource guarding. Our trainers identify the root cause through a detailed behavioral assessment, then build a personalized modification plan using desensitization, counter-conditioning, and structured management protocols. Programs run [X–X] weeks depending on severity. Owners report calmer behavior at home, less frustration on walks, and significantly reduced anxiety triggers.
Immersive training where your dog stays at Hello Pets for [X] weeks, receiving daily one-on-one training sessions ([X] minutes each), supervised socialization through our daycare program, and structured overnight care. Ideal for owners with demanding schedules or dogs who benefit from intensive, consistent repetition. You receive a detailed progress report and a handler transition session at pickup, so training carries over at home. No other training provider in North York combines immersive training with daily daycare socialization under one roof.

We follow a structured, dog-centered approach designed to support both pets and their owners. Our training program focuses on building a strong relationship between you and your dog, fostering better communication and understanding. This approach benefits both you and your dog by improving confidence, obedience, and overall harmony.
