Farrah's Canine College

Farrah's Canine College is a Deerfield Beach dog training business founded in 2022 by owner and trainer Farrah Nickerson. It is built on the belief that no two pets are alike, so each one needs training shaped around its own traits and mannerisms. Farrah works on everything from basic manners to complex behavior problems such as reactivity, and she focuses on teaching owners to communicate effectively with their dogs.

Her training follows LIMA, or least intrusive, minimally aversive, which means she chooses tools and methods based on what each dog needs. Services include private sessions, board and train, group classes, a service dog program, and boarding. Farrah has pet dog and working dog experience, has trained under a variety of professionals, and is a service dog handler herself.

Farrah actively trains and competes in AKC, UKC, IGP, French Ring, and disc sports, and she has titled multiple dogs. Her titles include IGP3, the highest level of tracking, obedience, and protection, along with BH/VT, CSAU, AKC Rally Novice, a UKC Championship, a dock jumping division title, and SPOT-ON. Long-term clients praise her clear communication, honest feedback, progress videos, and individualized plans.
