After consulting the shelter, I contacted a behaviourist to get help. Although this was informative and lead me in the right direction, it was not affordable. I further consulted a trainer (whom was really helpful) He inspired me to pursue education in Dog care.
I followed this up with my certificates in Dog training and Dog psychology. I orginally did this to just help my dog, Sasha, however I soon started walking reactive and anxious dogs in my community.
This eventually lead to training and behaviour modfication, along with educating dog guardians on how to fulfill thier dogs needs and create a relationship together.
Power Pooches doesn't train, we teach.
We hired Jake for our 1.5 year old American Staffy and WOW!! The results in a short 8 weeks were amazing. Jake knows his stuff, but he made the experience even better by always being accomodating, accessing the community and our home, and he is just a genuine person wanting to help dogs and their owners. We would recommend Jake to everyone and anyone looking for a dog trainer!
I recently had the pleasure of working with Jake for some dog training for my miniature 1.5 year old Dachshund Arlo and I couldn’t be more impressed. Jake was incredibly accommodating and took the time to really understand my dog’s needs. My dog typically struggles with strangers (especially men) but by the end of the very first session, he was calm, relaxed, and not barking at all. I was honestly amazed at how quickly Jake built trust with him. Since our sessions began, I’ve already seen a noti
Jake was wonderfully patient with our dog, and genuiniely connected with him and us over the course of the training which he tailored to our specific needs. Great resources, facilities and knowledge and would highly recommend

Power Pooches is Sasha (Canine) and Jake (Me, Human), who crossed paths and became family.
Sasha was a rescue that had been in a few different homes and was unable to connect with people.
She had various anxiety issues:
Leash ractivity
Seperation anxiety
Fear of cars
and was not a very confident dog.
I had not been the guardian of a dog for almost 40 years and wasnt sure how to help Sasha.
All dogs are welcome: reactive, anxious, nervous, adults, older, rescues, pups and all breeds.
However, humans only welcomed if they are committed to putting in the work to help thier dogs!
Please note: Power Pooches services are NOT for every one. We do not use aversion methods, halti's or negative cues. We do not believe you must be the pack leader. Our way is centered around positive rewards, education and learning how to read your dog. This will allow a deeper level of communication. Our services require a level of commitment from YOU. Without your time and effort, you and your dog will not reap the benefits of our services.
