Specialized obedience and field skills for the modern sporting dog

About Torch Retriever Training
Owned and operated by Allan, Torch Retriever Training is Calgary’s premier destination for retriever-specific development. Whether you have a competitive field trial prospect, a weekend hunting companion, or a family pet that needs better impulse control, Allan’s hands-on approach delivers results. His training ensures that dogs are not only high-performing in the field but are also well-mannered, calm members of the household.

Why We Collaborate With Torch Retriever Training
We collaborate with Allan because of his deep breed-specific expertise. Retrievers are high-energy, mouth-oriented dogs that require a specific style of communication and motivation. His commitment to building a “thinking” retriever that works in partnership with its owner aligns perfectly with our goal of providing owners with total confidence and safety at home.

“Don’t just walk your retriever—work with their instincts. Allan’s foundational programs are the key to a dog that is as reliable off-leash as they are on the sofa.”
