About us
Lisa Frederick-Leyland: A dog lover my entire life, I was never able to have a dog as a child due to my father's allergies. I walked and trained a neighbourhood of dogs and worked at dog groomers and veterinarian hospitals all through high school and university to get my "dog" fix!
I obtained my B.A. in Psychology studying animal behaviour and learning theories with great interest. Much of this knowledge has been incorporated into my training methods. For me it has never been enough just to do something with my dog - I have to understand why it works, or doesn't. I take pride in using motivational methods and have a wonderful relationship with my dogs which shows in their performances.
I started in the sports of Schutzhund, CKC obedience & tracking 15 years ago. During this time period I have titled 9 different dogs to a total of 44 performance titles!
Mike Leyland: I first started competing in CKC obedience in the 1980's and shortly thereafter joined the German Shepherd Schutzhund Club of Canada to pursue the sport of Schutzhund (tracking, obedience & protection). I founded the Lakeside Schutzhund Club where I was the President for 10 years. I am also a past Training Director for the Ontario Region of the GSSCC.
Over the years I have raised, trained and titled multiple dogs from puppies all the way to SchH3, competing many times at a National level with a top 10 placing for Canada. My female V-"Trixie" SchH1, SchH2, SchH3, AD, KKL 1a Lbz was a Canadian National Siegerin. I have earned my Bronze, Silver and Gold Sports Medals in schutzhund, winning multiple High Tracking, High Obedience and multiple High Protection In Trial awards.
Prior to the Toronto Police Service having their own K9 Unit I was requested to use one of my trained dogs in a missing person search earning a letter of appreciation from them. I have also successfully trained a dog through to RCMP Police Dog Certification.
I then got into TV work, with my trained dogs appearing in Littlest... show more Hobo episodes, on Wayne & Shuster and appearing on Dr. McCutcheon's People and Pets. show more
