WELCOME TO TNT TRAINING!

Janice heeling with one of her dogsWe opened our school in 1998! Owner, Janice Gunn is the main stay behind the training class structure. She has been training dogs for nearly 40 years now, but it’s not only her longevity in the world of dogs that has given her, her expertise. Janice has attended training seminars with some of the World’s best pet dog trainers. The list includes, multiple seminars with Ian Dunbar, Terry Ryan, John Rodgerson, Truid Ruugas, Patricia McConnell, Jean Donaldson, Leslie Neilson, Chris Bach, Diane Jessup, Patty Ruzzo and Sue Sternberg just to name a few! There are many others as well. Janice has also attended APDT and CPDT extensive conferences that are held thru-out the US and Canada.

Janice has earned titles in many different venues, actually proving that she can train her dog, AND that her training follows thru in competition where dogs exhibt stress and anxiety and often do not perform well. There is a fine balance in dog training when using food to train. Dogs learn very quickly in the presence of food, but when the treats are gone, only a well trained dog will perform in the ring. And this requires a skilled trainer, one that understands how to find the balance between using food rewards, and yet still “teaching” the dog how to perform without food.

This is why TNT is so unique, Janice and all her trainers actually DO compete with their own dogs and earn titles. They are not afraid to put themselves on display and show the world that they really do know how to train a dog! Janice herself has earned titles to the highest levels. This includes titles in conformation, agility, tracking, field trials, hunt tests and competition obedience.

The TNT Training Center is only a short 15 minute drive from both Abbotsford and Langley located near the Greater Vancouver Zoo and attracts students from Langley, Aldergrove, Abbotsford, Mission, Surrey and even Pitt Meadows.
