Annika McDade

Owner & Intuitive Connection Coach

Annika McDade is the Founder of Canine Connection Training. She is a triple certified Professional Behaviour Consultant & Coach with a passion for facilitating a deep connection between dogs and their people.

She combines the unique balance of science-based knowledge & spiritual curiosity when working with clients. Her ability to interpret a dog’s needs or behaviour allows you to strengthen your bond while achieving your training & relationship goals.

She has a compelling history as a radio personality, world traveler, energy worker and adventure seeker. From training wolves in Inner Mongolia, to Great Pyrenees dogs in France, to working with rescues, sled dogs & family pets in Canada, Annika has been working in the industry for more than 15 years. These accomplishments are secondary to her natural knack for connecting with people.  

Annika is invested as much in the transformation of her clients as she is in their pets. To her, working with you is anything but transactional.

Annika has built a team of reliable, professional & talented trainers that have been hand-picked to support you!

With a strong belief that our dogs come into our lives for a reason, she feels if we remain curious, open hearted & self aware, our dogs have much to teach us, about us.

If you’d like to work with Annika, she is now also offering 1:1 Intuitive Connection & Business Coaching online, and sometimes works 1:1 with dog training clients.
