Paddle with your Dog • 1-on-2 Coaching

Enjoy Shared Adventures on the Water with Your Dog in Specialized Coaching Sessions

Turn your paddling sessions into shared adventures with your furry companion through this fun and practical SUP with your Dog program. Designed for dog lovers and paddlers alike, this course helps you train your best friend to feel comfortable, confident, and safe on the board. Under the guidance of experienced instructors, you will learn how to introduce your dog to the paddleboard, build trust, and teach them the cues and balance skills needed for a smooth ride together.

Each session focuses on creating a positive experience for both of you because stand-up paddleboarding is even better when shared with your loyal friend. You will also gain a deeper understanding of how to paddle safely and efficiently with six legs on board, learning important techniques for stability, communication, and safety on the water. The instructors emphasize the importance of gradual exposure to the board to ensure that your dog remains calm and happy throughout the entire process.

By the end of the program, both you and your pup will be ready to enjoy calm lakes, gentle rivers, or coastal paddles together with confidence. This is a great way to strengthen your bond, stay active, and have fun exploring nature side by side. The training covers essential safety protocols, including how to handle unexpected movements on the board and how to maintain balance while your dog shifts their weight during the paddle session.

This two hour session is a fantastic addition to any Canada adventure, providing a unique way to enjoy the outdoors with your pet. Whether you are a seasoned paddler or a beginner, the coaching is tailored to your specific needs and your dogs temperament. You will leave with the skills to embark on future water adventures, knowing that you have established a safe and enjoyable routine that celebrates the special bond between you and your canine companion.
