Why owners choose Good Calm

Training that feels like play, and actually sticks

Most dogs don't need to be “dominated” into behaving. They need a better game than the squirrel. Here's what that looks like.

Kind, force free method

Positive, game based training from the UK's ProDog system. No shock, no prong, no fear. Your dog learns because they want to.

Built on real confidence

Games grow a dog's focus and self esteem, so calm behaviour holds up at the gate, on the leash and around distractions, not just in the living room.

You learn it too

Lorna teaches you the games and leaves you the training materials to keep, so the results carry on long after the lesson ends.

Fits your real life

Puppy manners, leash walking, recall, reactivity, separation worries or a fun new hobby. Every plan is shaped around your dog and your goals.

Local & hands on

Home visits and park sessions across Chilliwack and the surrounding Fraser Valley. Lorna has even met clients outside training hours to help.

Proven & loved

Champion level obedience background and a wall of 5 star reviews calling Lorna a “dog whisperer” who makes training genuinely fun.

Sound familiar?

Does your dog do any of these?

These are the four we hear about most. Every one of them is fixable, usually faster than you'd think.

📣

Barks too much

At the window, the doorbell, other dogs. Noise that never seems to switch off.

🤗

Jumps on people

Muddy paws and knocked over guests every time someone walks through the door.

🦮

Pulls on the leash

Walks feel like a tug of war instead of the relaxing outing they should be.

🙉

Won't come when called

You call, they keep sniffing, because right now the squirrel is more interesting than you.

Whatever it is, there's a game that fixes it.

Hi, I'm Lorna 👋

Founder & Certified Dog Trainer · Good Calm Dog Training

I've loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up showing them. My Irish Terrier, Chipper, earned his Canadian Champion title with obedience credentials, and I've been chasing the same feeling ever since: that moment a dog lights up because training finally makes sense to them.

In 2015 I found a group in the UK who train dogs by playing fun games with them, and it changed everything. I tested it on my own rescue dog, Pia, before I ever taught it to anyone, and the difference in her focus and confidence sold me for good.

“Lorna is an excellent teacher and dog whisperer. I learned so much from her.” · Good Calm client

Today I help owners across Chilliwack and the surrounding Fraser Valley turn barking, pulling and chaos into calm, confident companionship, the kind that makes life with your dog genuinely more relaxing. And yes, part of the job is being sexier than a squirrel.
