Just me and your dog(s). I love to run with dogs, and we can go to your dog's favourite spots to play fetch or meet pup-friends. I am highly experienced in walking reactive dogs and big strong dogs.

DOG TRAINING
Single Session Zoom: $45
Includes 1hr Zoom Call and unlimited free text and email advice.
Single Session In-Person: $65
Includes 1hr Home Visit and unlimited free text and email advice.
In these sessions I will work with you and your dog to achieve your training goals. I will help you understand your dog's behaviour, give you tailored advice on management and alternative behaviours, coach you to improve your handling and training skills, and train your dog directly.
-- TRAINING PHILOSOPHY --
My dog training is based on foundations of positive reinforcement, clear communication, and dog-human cooperation. My goal as a trainer is to help owners and their dogs work together to live more happily and with less frustration.
I follow the LIMA (Least Intrusive, Minimally Aversive) philosophy in my training. This means that I want the dog to feel calm and relaxed during training, and I always use the least intrusive training method before moving up to the next step.
I use proven methods like operant conditioning, classical conditioning, reinforcing alternative behaviours, desensitisation, and counter-conditioning. I do not use tools with a high potential for harm (e.g. choke collars).
I specialise in behaviour modification for puppy, adolescent, and adult dogs. Example problem behaviours that I can help with include jumping on people, pulling the leash, biting the leash, barking at other dogs, chewing furniture, and more.
-- HOW TO BOOK --
Please contact me via Gumtree or text ******** 482 to make a booking.
Please include your suburb and your pet's name, age, and breed. For dog training, please include as much information as you can about your dog's history, personality, and the problem or goal. I look forward to meeting your pets!
