Philosophy
Our Philosophy of Dog Training:

The Academy of Good Dog Training is committed to the following objectives:

We train dogs using positive methods incorporating positive motivation and rewards. We will refuse to be involved with any approaches that compromise this principle.
We believe that the development of a genuine and trusting relationship with your dogs is essential to the training process.
We believe that building ‘fun’ into the training process makes learning easier and something that both dog owners and their dogs look forward to doing.
We aim to help dog owners understand what’s happening for their dogs and then use the appropriate response depending on the situation.
We tailor all of our interventions and training to the individual dog and dog owner – we design the program to fit the dog – we don’t try to squeeze the dog into a structure that won’t fit or work on its individual requirements.

Our promise to our clients is that we will work in partnership with them to achieve the best possible results. We will always provide them with honest, unbiased advice in the best interests of their dog and their personal situation. We will ‘stick with it’ for as long as it takes to get the results the client needs.

About Shannon O’Donnell (Principal Trainer):

Shannon has been an avid dog handler and certified trainer for over 40 years. He undertook his professional dog training at the Hillsborough Dog Obedience School and has subsequently designed his own training methods and conducted several of his own dog training seminars at both beginner and advanced levels. Shannon only uses positive reinforcement methods to achieve results.

Shannon is a registered breeder. He works with each dog and their owners, on a one to one basis. Solutions are tailored to the individual needs and temperaments of the dog. He is highly regarded for his work with highly reactive dogs and has had considerable success in desensitizing situations for reactive dogs. This is an area that is highly specialized and requires a very competent and experienced trainer.

Shannon has a sincere love of animals, especially dogs. He finds the process of teaching and training dogs very rewarding and enjoys the results of watching dogs and their owners improve and develop closer bonds over time. Shannon has several of his own dogs, and they have been used in film work (“Yindi the last Koala”), and also in protection situations for celebrities such as John Farnham, Angry Anderson and Prime Minister, Mr John Howard.
