Why Norwalk families trust
Hope Gables Canine
Nick started Hope Gables Canine after rehabilitating his own reactive dog, Layla, the hard way: trial, error, and a handful of trainers who didn't get it right.
​
That experience shaped how we train today: no shortcuts, no one-size-fits-all plans.
​
We've since worked with dogs from SoNo to Rowayton to East Norwalk. Different breeds, different histories.
​
Same result: it holds up once your dog comes home.
This is what 'winning your walks back' actually looks like.

A year ago we adopted our pup Piggy and immediately learned she was highly reactive on leash — pulling with such strength every time she saw another dog that our anxiety levels were sky high before we even left the house. We sought out remote, desolate places to walk her, or went out at odd hours, just to avoid other dogs. After working with several trainers over six months with little to no results, we found Nick and Hope Gables Canine. Following her October Board & Train, Piggy now walks confidently by our side, past other dogs, without reaction."
