Course Curriculum

" My favorite part of this challenge was how Noortje discussed how dogs need to be given a choice. I mean, Finnegan's life is spoiled rotten, but I never thought about asking him which direction he wanted to walk, or which treat he would prefer (he chose the bully stick over the tarter buster this morning)! "

 " The 7-day challenge was a great way to start each day with a goal of doing something with Kohl. I do things with him all the time but it’s good to get new ideas to keep him happy and engaged - and to stay aware of how my behaviour impacts him. The 7 day challenge was perfectly paced with achievable objectives - It became a fun daily exercise and took us out of our usual routine"

Heather and Kohl

 "Noortje is open and friendly in her videos. It is evident that she knows what she's talking about. My favorite part of the challenge was more insight into a dog's thought process and their needs and, perhaps, even ways to meet those needs -- my dog and I need more practice on that!"

Wag Wise Dog Coaching and Education provides one on one coaching and education to dog guardians and their dogs in the comfort of their home (or a suitable outdoor space) in the greater Fredericton area (New Brunswick). Wag Wise aims to help dog guardians better understand their dog, their needs and behaviors and to help build a safe and trusting relationship.

Wag Wise is owned and operated by Noortje Kunnen. Noortje graduated from the International School for Canine Psychology and Behavior. Working with dogs and their guardians was inspired by the arrival of Alfie, a fearful boy, who was seized while running at large by the SPCA.

Alfie found life difficult and was worried about most things. There was very little known about his history, but it was clear there had been some trauma. He did everything in his power to keep himself safe and to protect himself. At a loss how to best help and support Alfie, Noortje embarked on formal canine behavior education and graduated with distinction from the International School for Canine Psychology and Behavior (the ISCP).

Throughout her education she worked with Alfie and other dogs and their guardians. In August 2023, Wag Wise Dog Coaching launched as an official business.

The focus of Noortje’s services is on helping guardians and their dogs live their best life together, by understanding the dog, their behaviors, their personality, their needs, likes and dislikes and coaching guardians on how to help make their dog feel safe and secure.

Wag Wise promotes a fun and non-forceful way to address a dog’s unique needs to help the dog thrive. The focus of the coaching and education Wag Wise provides is on helping guardians to make their dog feel safe and confident, more optimistic and happier. Wag Wise’s methods are based on the latest evidence regarding dog emotions, behavior, mood, trauma-informed care and learning theory.
