Windsor’s Best Training Centre & Largest Dog Daycare Facility
ABOUT US
Animal Antics Behaviour Centre was founded in October 2015 to help provide a safe and enjoyable space for dogs to socialize & provide positive reinforcement training you can enjoy as well as your pet. Our group and private training options can assist pet owners right from the start, to help prevent behaviour issues from even starting. We can also assist once your pet is showing unwanted behaviours, to help keep pets in their homes and reduce the need for relinquishment to shelters or behavioural euthanasia. Contact us to find out how we can help you and your pet live in harmony together!

FAQs

Animal Antics subscribes to the humane hierarchy as the guiding principle to our training. That means we start by looking at lifestyle factors, move on to prevention, and then work on teaching and reinforcing alternative behaviours. Aversive tools are not in our kit. That means no prongs, chokes, or pinch collars, e-collars, corporal punishment or corrections. If you currently use these tools, don't despair! We are happy to help you in your journey, no matter where you are at, if you are open to working towards no longer needing those tools. Judgement free, guaranteed.

Yep. But not for everything, and not forever. Using food helps us get results fast, and we'll make sure you don't create the "show me the money" dog that will only do stuff if you have a treat in your hand.
Worried that your dog isn't food motivated? That's ok! We can find out what works for your dog.
Trainer's favourite treats:Real food (boiled chicken, cooked steak, bacon, pork loin, cheese, apple, red pepper, carrot... whatever your dog likes... We have even used french fries, cheetohs, and broccoli with some dogs!)
