Obedience Services

Obedience services focus on building clear communication, reliability, and everyday manners in real-world settings. Sessions may address skills such as loose-leash walking, recalls, impulse control, and polite behaviour around people, dogs, and household distractions. Training is tailored to the individual dog and household, with an emphasis on practical skills that support safety, predictability, and a calmer day-to-day relationship. These services are suitable for both foundational training and refining existing skills where consistency or reliability has broken down.

Separation Anxiety

​Separation anxiety services focus on helping dogs develop comfort and emotional stability when left alone. Sessions may address behaviours such as vocalising, destructive behaviour, pacing, drooling, escape attempts, or distress linked to departures and pre-departure cues. Training is tailored to the individual dog and household, with plans built around gradual alone-time training, environmental management, and careful pacing to support progress without setbacks. These services are suitable for mild to severe separation-related concerns, as well as cases where previous training attempts have not led to sustained improvement.

Behaviour Modification

Behaviour modification services focus on addressing fear-based, reactive, anxious, or aggressive behaviours that impact safety and quality of life. Sessions may address responses to people, dogs, handling, environments, or specific triggers, including behaviours such as barking, lunging, freezing, avoidance, or escalated stress responses. Training is tailored to the individual dog and household, using force-free, evidence-based approaches that prioritise emotional safety, clear communication, and careful pacing.

QuickStart Programs

The QuickStart Program provides structured guidance for dog owners seeking clear direction without ongoing in-person sessions. This service focuses on assessment, education, and practical next steps based on the information provided by the owner, which may include intake forms, written history, and video submissions. Guidance is tailored to the individual dog and household, with an emphasis on clarity, safety, and realistic expectations. The QuickStart Program is suitable for a wide range of behaviour and training concerns where professional input is needed to inform next steps.

Cat Training

Cat behaviour services focus on addressing common behaviour concerns such as litter box issues, fear, stress-related behaviours, and changes in behaviour within the home. Support is based on understanding feline behaviour, environmental factors, and household dynamics that influence emotional wellbeing. Guidance is tailored to the individual cat and household, using force-free, welfare-centred approaches. These services are suitable for indoor cats and multi-cat households experiencing behavioural challenges.

Self-Study Courses

Self-study courses provide structured, educational content for dog owners who prefer to learn independently and at their own pace. Courses are designed to explain behaviour, training concepts, and practical skills through clear instruction and step-by-step guidance. Content focuses on understanding the dog’s experience, setting up the environment for success, and applying force-free, evidence-based methods appropriately. These courses are suitable for owners seeking foundational knowledge, skill development, or supplemental learning alongside professional support.
