1. Services Provided
Pawfection K9 provides dog training, behaviour support, walking services, puppy visits, and related canine services.
We reserve the right to refuse or withdraw services if a dog presents a risk to itself, other animals, staff, or the public.

Provide appropriate equipment (e.g., harness, leads) as requested for training or walking.

3. Behaviour & Safety
Your dog’s safety and wellbeing are our priority. To manage risk:
Dogs displaying aggression or reactivity must be declared in advance.
Muzzles may be required for certain dogs; we will discuss this openly and professionally.
