Andrew A. Brana
I am a passionate dog trainer with extensive experience working as an animal shelter volunteer, pet foster parent as well as working with private clients. After many years of training and working with shelter and rescue dogs, I started my own dog training service.My commitment is to force-free positive reinforcement training because it is humane, based on solid behavioral and learning science, fun for dog and human, and, most critically, very effective to develop desirable behaviors. I am a Certified Professional Dog Trainer (CPDT-KA.) In 2013 I earned my Professional Dog Trainer Certification from the Karen Pryor Academy (KPA CTP), which is the founding and leading authority on positive reinforcement and clicker-based training. I'm a graduate of the Puppy Start Right Instructors Course. Additionally, I’ve attended training programs in dog behavior and body language, lead handling and walking skills, kennel enrichment, aggression and counter conditioning, fear and BAT (Behavioral Adjustment Training), therapy dog visitation program, Clicker Training, TagTeach and microchipping. I am an American Kennel Club Canine Good Citizenship evaluator. I work with private clients, focusing on their specific priorities and challenges with customized training plans.

Andrew Simon Din
Back to Pack Rescue Shelter (BPR) strives to prevent re-homing of dogs. To us that means putting in the work that needs to be done to train dogs in obedience and exposing them to different situations. Our goal is to adopt dogs that are well balanced and ready for a home that will be compatible with their unique personality. BPR is the first shelter in Winnipeg to house-train dogs before they are given up for adoption. This requires a lot of work from our staff, but it is worth all the time knowing that these dogs will stay with one family for their entire life.

Andrew Wellington McDonald
I have ten years experience working with dogs, and their people, suffering from behavioral issues. My areas of specialization are dogs that are fearful or making aggression displays. I will work with these dogs with, and without, a bite history. because so much of aggression in dogs is routed in fear, my goal is to help these dogs develop confidence and recognize that the world is not such a scary place after all. To do this it's critical to help the dog's people learn how to recognize when their dog is becoming uncomfortable and how to diffuse the situation. I work with all dogs using the Least Invasive, Minimally Aversive (LIMA) techniques and work to instill trust in both dog and their people.

Frequently asked questions about dog training
How much does dog training cost?
Dog training costs vary by type and location. Group classes typically run $50–$200 for a multi-week session. Private sessions range from $50–$150 per hour. Board and train programs can cost $500–$2,500+ per week depending on the trainer and length of program.
What dog training methods are most effective?
Positive reinforcement is widely considered the most effective and humane dog training method. It rewards desired behaviors rather than punishing unwanted ones. Look for trainers certified by organizations like CCPDT, IAABC, or Karen Pryor Academy.
How long does dog training take?
Basic obedience typically takes 4–8 weeks of consistent training. Behavior modification for issues like aggression or separation anxiety may take 3–6 months. Every dog learns at their own pace — consistency and practice between sessions are key.
What certifications should a dog trainer have?
Look for trainers certified by CCPDT (Certified Professional Dog Trainer), IAABC (International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants), or the Karen Pryor Academy. These certifications require demonstrated knowledge and adherence to humane training standards.
