Balanced Training
We use a balanced training approach to ensure we are rewarding the behaviours and actions we want and do not want through comprehensible boundaries.
Modern Techniques
We believe that every dog (and their owners) should benefit from socialization and positive reinforcement training as part of their health, wellness and relationship building.

Our mission is to help every dog, regardless of their issues, by partnering with you to create a loving, calm, and joyful relationship between your dog and your household. We focus on building strong relationships founded on love, trust, and respect using balanced training philosophies and new age techniques that ensure long-term success.
Training your dog from the very beginning is a crucial step in achieving a lifetime of positive and balanced behavior. Unite Canine Training helps you get over those first obstacles of puppyhood such as potty training and sleeping through the night. The beginning months of a puppy’s life will stick with them forever.
Beginner Class
Congrats, you’ve made it through puppyhood, or perhaps you’re new to this whole dog parent thing and have just adopted a furry family member. No matter the case, our beginner classes are designed to be inclusive for every range when it comes to training. This class is best for dog parents who are looking to build a basic foundation and foster a strong relationship with their dog.
Board and Train
Unite Canine Training's Board & Train Program offers a structured, immersive solution for out-of-town owners or those seeking intensive training. Tailored to address basic obedience, complex behaviors like reactivity or aggression, or even intermediate obedience with optional e-collar recall training, program lengths range from 2 weeks (basic manners) to 6 weeks (severe behavioral challenges). Weekly updates keep you informed of your dog's progress.
Private Class
Unite Canine Training offers personalized, private sessions for those welcoming a new furry friend, struggling with busy schedules that clash with group classes, or facing behavioral challenges best addressed in a one-on-one setting. We cater to your learning style and comfort level, offering training at your home or our facility.
Small Dog Beginner
This "Small Dog & First-Timers" class caters to all ages (8 weeks and older) and dogs 45lbs or under, perfect for those seeking a training experience with smaller pups. All behaviors are welcome, though an assessment is recommended for dogs with moderate to extreme reactivity before enrolling. The class covers everything included in our Beginner Class.
Intermediate Class
Our intermediate classes build on the foundation set during beginner class while adding in new challenges and obstacles. Here you’ll master everything from basic commands such as: sit, down, stand, stay, to loose leash walking, greetings, recalls and more. We move from mainly short leash work to longline work.

Unite Training has an amazing training program for all kinds of dogs. We had a great experience working with Colton in the beginner training course. This 6 week session had our pup Snoopy walking better, listening to command and following leash pressure, having good treat manners, and recalling better than ever before. Highly recommend!
We took puppy classes with our 16-week-old puppy at the time, and it was the best training we and our puppy have received. Colton is extremely knowledgeable, and patient. He communicates each step along the way, following up each week on how things are going and providing detailed notes to continue practicing at home. We did lots of research on training and highly recommend Colton / Unite Canine training!!
Unite Canine Training is definately the only place to look for dog training courses in the lower mainland. Colton is a very caring and thoughtful teacher, adaptive for each dog, and very knowledgable about all dogs needs. His methods are clear and easy to understand. If you follow them, you will see success with your dogs manners and obedience. He was very accommodating allowing our 3 month old puppy to take part in the beginner training course and provided additional support relative to the age of our younger dog. I highly recommend Unite Canine Training.
