vancouver’s dog trainers
it takes a town to raise a dog
New puppy… or senior floof? We’ve got a class for you.
Here at Raintown, we offer a variety of dog training and puppy training classes in Vancouver. Our professional trainers are passionate about leading quality programs for pups of all ages and breeds, focusing on the areas of manners, socialization and tricks. Our (fun!) approach is designed to help you and your fur-baby connect in a more communicative and cooperative way, and our hope is to bring you into the wider dog-parent community around the Lower Mainland.
We believe that a little bit of dog obedience training goes a long way in bringing you and your dog together into a deepened and joyous bond. Whether you’re em"bark”ing on your first outdoor adventure together, learning the joys of sit-stays, or hoping to wander the streets of Vancouver with a comfortable loose-leash, we have a class for you!

What people Are Saying
“She is creative, encouraging, and incredibly patient when it comes to training dogs. When Ollie and I first attended class, we realized that he had some leash reactivity, which Kristina suggested we examine more in a private session. We're now back in classes and Ollie is rocking it! I didn't realize what a quick learner he was until I started doing classes/training with Kristina.”
