At All Bright Dogs, most of our clients come from referrals - our happy students tell their friends about us, then they tell their friends and so on. We want to give you a R+ (positive reinforcement) for telling your friends about All Bright Dogs Classes! If someone new to All Bright Dogs signs up for a class and fills your name and contact information out on their registration form, we'll send you a certificate for $10 off of your next class! There's no limit to how many you can apply to any class - they're as good as cash at All Bright Dogs. If your friends are getting a new dog, or complaining about their old one, send them our way - everyone wins! |

| About Us | |
| At All Bright Dogs, our goal is to improve the lives of dogs and the people who care for them. We do this by meeting dog and handler where they're at, and then bringing them closer together.
We use positive training methods; positive reinforcement (rewards for the correct behavior) and negative punishment (taking away something they want when they do the wrong behavior). This creates a great learning atmosphere for both dogs and people - and if we're having fun, we'll do more training, right?! Laurie Albright (our head trainer) is a member of the Canadian Association of Professional Pet Dog Trainers. She has been training professionally for 10 years. Laurie is a CKC and CARO Rally Obedience Judge, and enjoys competing with her own dogs in CKC Competitive Obedience, Rally Obedience, Agility, Conformation and has started getting into Herding with her Australian Shepherds, Andi and Shea.
