Bond with your pup while having fun
Bringing home a rescue dog?
The 3/3/3 rule can be a good starting point:
3 days to decompress a tiny bit
3 weeks to know your routine and feel safe to have their personality come out. New challenges like chewing. jumping, or not listening occur.
3 months to really feel comfortably and at home with you. If you have worked on a good structure and routine, then it smooths out for a bit.
Bringing home a new puppy?
They are adorable but are little “land sharks” and are exhausting at first.
A good starting point is focus on independence training, potty training, not biting/chewing and know what is appropriate to chew on, positive or neutral socialization, along with good structure and routine can help shape your puppy for life and give you the breaks you need!

Manage and change behavioral issues
Long term behavioral issues including barking, jumping, biting/chewing, lunging, leash pulling, reactivity, resource guarding, and separation distress can be challenging to manage and often times hard to work with an in person trainer. With dogs that are fearful or aggressive adding more triggers or stimulation may not benefit you or your pup.
Virtual training can be helpful to see what is going on naturally at home, asses the situation, and work with your specific needs to find a good plan for you.

What our clients are saying
Summer M.
“My puppy is only 11 weeks old but Barkasana has helped me start training and setting foundations for her to learn. I tried down, leave it and bed after watching YouTube videos my puppy didn’t understand, Sara showed me and within minutes she was doing the cues. After a few weeks of training with Sara, Dior was already potty trained, crate trained, not biting me, and she even talked me how to look for in person puppy socialising classes when she’s fully vaccinated.”

“Sara is amazing, friendly, and professional. We really had lost hope with our Border Collie Ringo, with his aggression, resource guarding and issues with thunder/lightning. With virtual sessions, the trainer could see what was going on, and I was able to understand Ringo’s behaviour, triggers and adjust when needed. Nothing was too much trouble. We decided to go with the weekly subscription and it was easy to schedule and we could pause when we wanted to skip a week. They have been so responsive and helpful for all of our questions in depth we have. I honestly feel like i can breathe knowing we have Barkasana in our corner and feel like im getting the Ringo we used to know back.I cannot recommend them enough!

“My 2 daschunds barked at everything, chased anything, and stole food all the time. Walks were terrible. After a few months with Barkasana, Chester can walk by other dogs and people without barking and Lucy know Leave It and will mostly leave the food alone at the dinner table. Sara showed us that each dog was doing things for a different reason and help our family train them as individuals and what to watch for. My 3 yr old can finally eat his food on the couch again. I can’t wait to keep training and getting them to stop chasing the kids, cats, and cars. Sara changed our lives for the better! ”
