Do you train all breeds and ages?

Yes. I work with all breeds and all ages — from 8-week-old puppies to adult dogs with more complex behaviours.

How does your training work?

Each session begins with an assessment of your dog’s behaviour and environment. From there, I create a personalised training plan and guide you through practical skills you can use in daily life. Sessions include one-on-one coaching and ongoing support.

How do I book a session?

You can book online, submit an enquiry through the website or contact me directly via phone or email. Once your session is confirmed, I’ll send you a short intake form to learn more about your dog.

How long are the training sessions?

Most private sessions run for around 60 minutes. Behaviour consultations may run longer depending on assessment and planning.

What sort of puppy training do you offer?

I offer puppy pre-purchase advice, puppy school, one on one puppy training in your own home and puppy socialisation classes.

Training includes basic commands, toilet training, crate training, sleep training and common puppy behaviours.

What sort of dog training do you offer?

I work with dogs of all ages to improve behaviour, reduce problem habits and strengthen communication at home and outdoors. One on one training in your home or local environment. Training includes behavioural issues, crate training, separation anxiety, over excitement, poor recall, poor leading and jumping. Rescue dog training a speciality.

How many sessions will my dog need?

It depends on your dog’s needs and your goals. Puppies sometimes progress quickly in one or two sessions. More complex or long-term behaviour concerns may require a series of visits and ongoing support.
