BOOKING IN
Have you checked through the page and are inspired to join a course? If so, feel free to check out the following dates of the courses available and how to book in. NOTE: There are also options if you would like me to travel to you.
Obedience course
HIGH LEVEL OBEDIENCE COURSE | $660
Designed for dogs 5 months old or older (no maximum age). Dogs need to be non-aggressive toward people and dogs. Course is 3 days.
Includes: Dogs learning to walk on a loose lead, listen to their owners in all environments; develop impulse control; create a language which your dog and you can communicate in all settings; stop unwanted behaviours such as jumping, nuisance barking, excessive excitement in meeting people etc. The training does not use food, as many times food creates inconsistent obedience. Instead, I use the tone of your voice, your relationship with your dog, and pats and love as positive reinforcers.
​
Upcoming available courses in 2024 are:
September 8, 15, and 22
October 13, 20 and 27
November 10, 17 and 24
​
All courses are in Ararat*, Victoria. $660. 9am-12pm. I encourage everyone who lives with the dog to come to the training (including children) so everyone is on the same page.
*There are opportunities for travelling to you. Please see the attached brochure titled: 'Travel to you' for more information.
