Welcome To
Mellow Vibes Dog Training
Practical dog training that actually works for the real world. Let us set the foundation so you can enjoy a stress-free and more fulfilling life with your dog.
Mellow Vibes started with our dad, Boysie, a simple farmer from St. Vincent and the Grenadines, just wanting to be outdoors while the family visited our grandparents in Canada. Being a farmer his whole life, he loved being outside and had little patience for being cooped up indoors. Missing our (over a dozen) dogs back home, and always being outside anyway, he took up dog walking.
He and our mom, Tamara, quickly realized that there was a real need for dog trainers in the city, and that this was a skill that he could use to feed his family of five (now six). It started as casually training the dogs he walked for fun, but progressed quickly from there. In 2001, with a few fliers and our first family dog in Canada, Country Boy, Mellow Vibes Irie Dog Training was born.
What once was just an old Vincy farmer working from High Park is now a thriving family business with a strong reputation for exceptional dog training and rehabilitation work servicing well beyond just the GTA, with clients from as far as Niagra Falls, and even some Americans visiting family. Boysie’s especially proud to note that all four of his children have their own testimonials for dogs they’ve trained themselves.
Now Boysie works with his three sons, Daniel, Paul, and Nathan, who themselves now each have over a decade of experience in dog training and rehab. Even Sarah, the youngest of the bunch, is now off studying to potentially become a vet.
Your trust is the most important thing to us. Many people seeking us out have already spent years and thousands of dollars trying to help their furry best friend without seeing meaningful results. With this in mind, we put our money where our mouths are. We don’t take payment upfront and only accept full payment at the end once you’ve seen the results. We film 30-60 minutes of footage showcasing our results, as well as spending 3-5 hours with you and your family to teach you what you need to know in order to move forward successfully.
Make no mistake: this is not a silver bullet. We can only set the foundation. It’s up to you to put in the time and effort necessary to maintain the results.
We also back all of our full training programs with our commitment to support you with unlimited free follow-up phone calls and full sessions at no additional charge. We pride ourselves on our commitment to our clients and many of our testimonials will attest to that fact.
We seek to help all of our clients live healthier, less stressful, and more fulfilling lives with their dogs through love, respect, and discipline. With understanding and proper training, you and your furry best friends can have the relationship you always wanted!
