In this 5 week course, you’ll choose 6 tricks to begin teaching your dog, learn how to cue tricks without having food on you, and discover what’s needed to take your tricks to a trial level. Most importantly, you and your dog will have loads of fun learning new things together!

Training Should Always Be Fun! 🎾 🐶

When it comes to training, one of the biggest secrets to success is keeping the sessions short and fun for both you and your dog!

In the video below, you’ll see Jaffa and his friends during his private lesson at the beach. We were working on his recalls, but rather than making it all about repetition, we broke up his training with plenty of playtime alongside his doggy friends. You’ll notice how much fun the group is having; and that’s exactly the point!

Why incorporate play into training?

✅ It gives your dog a mental and physical break.

✅ It strengthens your bond and makes training something they want to and enjoy doing.

✅ Play itself can even be used as a reinforcer. If your dog loves to chase, tug, or play, you can use that as a reward.

Training doesn’t have to feel like a chore. By mixing in games and play, you’ll not only improve your dog’s skills but also build a stronger, happier relationship together.

Remember: keep training sessions short, fun, and positive. That way your dog will always look forward to learning with you!

Check out best boy Ted in his private lesson with Kylie this morning. Ted is learning how to walk politely beside his mum and his brand new baby sibling. It was his very first time practicing with the pram, and he handled it like a total superstar. What a team! 🌟

During this morning’s private lesson with Razzy, we focused on an area that lots of dogs find tricky: reactivity around other dogs. Reactivity often looks like barking, lunging, or pulling on lead when a dog sees another dog, but underneath it’s usually caused by big feelings like frustration, fear, or excitement.

During our walk at Kangaroo Bay, his mum worked on helping Razzy feel calmer and more confident when other dogs were around. With some structured training, distance, and plenty of rewards, he absolutely smashed it!

Razzy also had his friend Vogue along for moral support. Sometimes having a familiar buddy nearby can really help a dog relax in tricky situations. 🥰

Every positive experience like this builds Razzy’s confidence, teaches him better coping skills, and strengthens the bond between him and his wonderful mum! Yay Razzy!

Meet Reef, a 12 week old Golden Retriever pup! Isn’t he adorable?

In the video below, you’ll see Reef learning that “4 feet on the mat = treats!” We’re marking the behaviour (with a “yes!”) when Reef steps onto the mat, and then lure and rewarding him in a nice relaxed drop. Over time, he’ll start offering that drop on the mat all by himself, which is exactly what we want!

Notice how Reef’s mum isn’t giving him any verbal cues to get on the mat. Instead, she cleverly positions herself so Reef is more likely to walk onto it, then marks and rewards once he does. This way, Reef is learning to figure things out on his own which helps makes the behaviour stronger in the long run!

We also introduced a super important skill today: a release word! Reef’s release word is “beep”. This tells him when he can hop off his mat, come out of his crate, jump out of the car, or go through a doorway.

Why is training a release word to a puppy so important? Because starting now means we won’t end up with a 40kg teenage Golden barging through doors, launching out of the car without permission, or bolting out the front gate. Teaching a release word early builds safety, patience, and good manners!

Reef absolutely nailed his first lesson today! I can’t wait to watch this clever pup grow into a well-mannered (but still cheeky I’m sure!) big boy!

The famous last words I hear from new clients: “I’m never getting a second dog. One is more than enough!”

Fast forward 12 months… and there’s puppy number two (sometimes even number three) zooming through the house, chewing the furniture, terrorising your first dog, and reminding you EXACTLY why you said those words in the first place!

Here’s your video proof: Soda and Queenie, strutting like the good little angels they are on my left… and on the right? Vogue. Living, breathing evidence that puppies are full-time professional troublemakers. 😅

Now it’s your turn!! drop a photo of your second (or third!) dog you were “never ever getting” in the comments below. Let’s see those irresistible faces!

Dogs deserve a say too! Let’s talk about consent. 🐶

From grooming, clipping nails, putting on a harness or even just attaching the lead, when it comes to handling our dogs, consent is everything!

So many dogs tell us they’re uncomfortable through their body language: running away, freezing, lip-licking, turning their head, or avoiding eye contact. Sadly, so many owners assume this is “just how my dog is with having their harness put on, getting their nails trimmed, etc.” But when those small signs of discomfort are missed or ignored, they can escalate into bigger behaviours like growling, snapping, or even biting.

But guess what? We can teach our dogs how to feel safe, comfortable, and even happy about being handled! By slowing down, listening to their body language, and setting them up for success, we can create trust and cooperation!!

Take little Button for example, despite being a generally confident Italian Greyhound puppy, the moment her mum picks up the lead, she runs away.. In our one on one private lesson, we built a new training protocol to change that.
We:

✅ Introduced a predictable routine with a cue and a designated spot to wait for the lead.

✅ Broke the process into tiny steps – starting with rewarding Button just for being near the lead.

✅ Gradually built up to calmly introducing the lead to the collar.

By the end of the session, Button had gone from dodging the lead to calmly waiting while Maddie clipped it on. The video below captures a small snippet of the training session, where Button is practising how to wait while also feeling comfortable as the lead is introduced. By rewarding her calm choices, we’re helping Button build positive associations and trust, turning lead time into something she’s happy to take part in, rather than something to avoid!

Remember: when our dogs feel safe and heard, handling becomes easier, less stressful, and so much more enjoyable for both of you! 🐾
