Our Training
At Bella & The Misfits, training isn’t one-size-fits-all ... it’s a relationship.
We focus on real-world progress for real dogs, especially the reactive, fearful, or misunderstood ones who need more than cookie-cutter advice. Whether you’re looking for private sessions tailored to your dog’s unique needs or supportive group classes filled with owners who truly get it, our training is designed to help you both feel confident, capable, and connected. Every step is guided, judgement-free, and paced with your dog’s comfort in mind, because progress feels best when you don’t have to do it alone.
Private Training Consultation
Before starting any private lessons, every training dog begins with a one-on-one consultation. This session allows us to fully understand your dog’s history, behaviour, and current challenges so we can create a clear, structured training plan- no guessing, no going in blind. This consult is packed with real value: 30 minutes of hands-on assessment, personalized coaching, and thoughtful planning. We put maximum effort into understanding who your dog is and what they truly need. You’ll receive a hands-on introduction to our balanced training methods, guidance tailored to your dog’s needs, and unlimited support through phone and email. This is the foundation that sets you and your dog up for long-term success.
Private Training Lessons
Every private training lesson is unique because every dog is unique. We tailor each session to your dog’s current needs, goals, and emotional state. While no two lessons ever look the same, a typical session may include a 20–30 minute “homework review,” where we go through the exercises assigned specifically for your dog. This is where you’ll learn why each piece of homework matters, covering the fundamentals of balanced training, canine communication, and how these tools support real-world progress.
​
From there, we dive into hands-on training and practical application. Owners learn how to confidently work through behaviour challenges as they appear, whether that’s reactivity, fear, uncertainty, impulse control, or building new habits. Because we specialize in rescues, reactive dogs, and “tricky” cases, no dog is too much. We can accommodate shorter or modified lessons when needed. Sessions are held wherever your dog learns best, at home, on walks, in parks, or in the environments where their challenges are most present.
