A little training goes a long way towards a happy, well-behaved companion. We’ll teach you about dog behaviour and how to use this knowledge in everyday life, including for training. We use fun, reward-based methods that teach people and dogs to love training.
Beginning Series
For dogs over three months of age, ideal for those that missed out on puppy training. This class will help you teach your dog using fun, reward-based methods. From sassy adolescents to mature-age mutts, this class benefits dogs of all ages. We’ve had students older than 8 years of age, proving you can teach an old dog new tricks!
Training topics include sit, down (drop), stand, stay, wait, walk nicely on lead, come when called, take/leave it (toys, food), good canine manners and more.

We are based in Bacchus Marsh, but have worked with clients across Western Suburbs of Melbourne, including Ballan, Werribee, Hoppers Crossing, Sunshine, Rockbank, Tarneit and Caroline Springs. We also travel to Geelong on appointment.
We can create a customised program for your dog and help you achieve your training goals. If your dog has a behavioural problem that we are not qualified to treat, we will be happy to refer you to a veterinary behaviourist.

Extra Services
Alongside dog training, we also offer a range of other services.
Pet sitting (dog and cats)
As an alternative to kennels, which can be very stressful for your pets, we offer a pet sitting service. We are happy to look after your pets in their own home, or we offer a lovely safe environment in our own home. Dogs have a fully enclosed courtyard with comfy beds and toys to play with and daily walks. Cats have their own space with comfy armchairs to spend lazy days enjoying the sun. Lots of cuddle time provided for both dogs and cats. Inspections welcome.
