Adolescent and adult dog classes are held on our 5 hectare property in West Melton where there are fully fenced training and play areas.  This allows you the freedom to train and play with your dog off lead.  There are hills to climb and areas for running and jumping. In summer we offer a large swimming pool for you and your dog.

Puppy classes are held at Prebbleton Veterinary Hospital, Blakes Road

We provide safe, secure and controlled environments that help you and your pet maximise your learning potential. Classes are restricted to small numbers to ensure individual attention and care is maintained. We will provide individualised, dedicated professional training and behavioural consultations for dogs and animals of any age, breed, or background.  You will learn skills in classes/consultations that you can apply to situations in "real life" - we will teach YOU how to teach your pet!

We are passionate about making training and behaviour modification successful and enjoyable for all involved - living with animals should be a hobby, not a chore!
