I’m making it my mission to introduce you to some amazing businesses and brands throughout the 2022 Yamnuska Wolfdog Sanctuary Calendar Contest. It’s my privilege to introduce these companies to you as sponsors of the fundraiser.
I’d firstly like to introduce you to our platinum sponsor, Dogma Training, from right here in Calgary, Alberta Canada.
Dogma Training is committed to giving you and your dog the tools you need to make your life together the best it can be.
Their training programs and day school curriculums were developed by one of the first elite CBCC-KA accredited trainers in the country – my friend, Megan Stanley. Even worldwide, there are few trainers of her calibre. At Dogma, you and your dog benefit from the best and most up-to-date techniques in dog training today.
Dogma focuses on the positive and uses only supportive training practices to achieve their quick and measurable results. They know what a dog needs to be successful, and adhere to strict dog to trainer ratios in both their daycare and training classes. Each and every dog in their care gets the time and attention they deserve.
Dogma day school guides dogs through a variety of subjects each day. At the end of the day, you’re taking home a dog with better basic obedience skills, and better manners.
Isn’t that what we all want for our dogs??
Dogma Training may have “training” in their name, but they offer a variety of services! They offer Day School AND they offer trainer accreditation as well.

Day School
Day school is where the cool kids go to learn! They start off their experience with an assessment on their first day. Once your dog settles in, Dogma will recommend one of the following levels:
KinderPups
The early stages of your dog’s life are a critical time for learning. KinderPups classes are active and adorable – perfect for energetic puppies.
Dogma High
After these structured training classes, your dog’s improved behaviour, obedience, social skills and impulse control will have them destined for the honour (sit, stay, and) roll(over).
DogmaU
Follow up your dog’s DogmaHigh diploma with a DogmaU degree. Here they tackle a more advanced course load that focuses on mastering their manners and more advanced skills.
Dogma Alum
Once your dog has graduated from DogmaU, they become mentors to Dogma’s younger scholastic canines. As a part of Dogma’s alumni program, your dog still enjoys the added enrichment of Day School without an individualized training plan.

Reactive Dog Training
Our human world has a lot going on, and all that busyness can be challenging and scary for a dog. Dogma’s developed training especially geared towards helping prepare dogs for success in the urban environment.
Private Training
If you’d rather your dog get one-on-one training, if they need a little extra attention or are experiencing a particular behavioural problem, private training is for you.
