The Smart Dog Academy has been in operation since 1992.
We have served the region well, training over 500 dogs
for their roles as family pets, companions and protectors.

In 1996 Brian closed the School in order to further develop
his training methods to an even higher degree.

In 1998, Natalie and Brian were married and the plan for the
re-opening of the Smart Dog Academy was set into motion
with a projected date of the year 2001.

January 2001, the SDA is open to the Ottawa area public
and an exciting a new era in the area of
Canine Education and Development has begun!
