Alex is the owner and operator of Happy Puppy and leads our off-leash pack hikes, training and enrichment programs, and house sitting services. She also works closely with our valued team member, Gabrielle, to thoughtfully integrate new pups into her on-leash pack walks and private sessions.

Alex is pet first aid certified and has extensive experience in dog training, working with dogs of varying temperaments and energy levels. Her training approach begins with looking beyond the behaviour and understanding the pup’s needs. She then applies structured methods, focusing on mental and physical fulfillment through walks and controlled play. She leads sessions with clear, calm, and confident energy, creating an environment where pups feel safe, secure, and eager to learn and play!

Across pack walks and hikes, Alex prioritizes safety and thoughtful group matching, ensuring pups can thrive in social settings while building confidence and reinforcing essential skills.

When not leading services, Alex is continually learning from a wide range of respected dog trainers and canine behaviourists, drawing from multiple perspectives to bring a balanced, informed approach to every service.

Above all, Alex is passionate about helping guardians support their pups’ mental, physical, and emotional fulfillment — leading to a better life for them both.
