Mutts About Training

Mutts About Training Dog obedience and behaviour modification Hi! My name is Stacey and here is a little back ground on me.

The beginning of my journey was with my family's breeding kennel and conformation show dogs, with lots of traveling and training to compete all over Victoria. later in life moving into vet nursing where puppy school and watching the behaviourist working on many dogs was always the highlight of my week. this all lead me to the realisation that dog behaviour was my passion and so I became a certified nationally recognised trainer through NDTF (national dog training federation).

Our costs are -
55 per day 9am-4pm pick up and drop off available for in town dogs.

Thursday
- 2 Spots available

This is Bobby, a 3yo red heeler. He’s looking for his forever home. He’s a very affectionate guy, he just might lick you to death! He loves pats, long walks and fetch. He doesn’t like swimming but has a β€œI’ll go if you’re going!” Attitude. He’s microchipped, and up to date with all needles. He is a quick learner and he has good manners but forgets them on occasion, mostly when he’s excited. Bit of a high energy guy so needs a high energy human!

At our Puppy Academy, we go beyond practical training and socialisation. We understand that as a puppy parent, you may have questions, concerns, or specific behavioural challenges that you'd like to address. That's why we include a compulsory theory session as part of our 6-week course, ensuring that you have the knowledge and tools to understand and address your puppy's needs as well as build a relationship with your trainer and fellow puppy owners.
(no puppies or children under 10 allowed at the theory session)

During the 6 weeks we will cover from the basics in obedience, manners, boundaries, to dog body language, mental stimulation, socialisation activities and confidence-building exercises. Each week's objectives are designed to build upon the previous ones, creating a comprehensive and well-rounded training experience for your puppy and will all be outlined clearly in your very own syllabus so that you can track your puppy's progress.

Additionally, in our commitment to providing a holistic approach to training, the sixth and final session takes place at your own home. This session serves as an opportunity to reinforce what you have learned and ensure that you have successfully implemented the training techniques and established good boundaries in your puppy's everyday environment. Our trainers will visit your home, assess your puppy's progress, and offer personalised guidance to address any remaining behavioural concerns or fine-tune the training as needed. This personalised touch ensures that your puppy training is tailored to their specific living situation, allowing for a seamless transition into a well-behaved member of the family.

At our Puppy Academy, we believe that a comprehensive training experience should encompass theory, practical skills, addressing unwanted behaviours, a clear course outline, and opportunities for personalised guidance. By enrolling in our 6-week course, you can expect to receive a well-rounded education, support, and the necessary tools to foster a strong bond with your puppy and set them up for a lifetime of happiness and success.

There are a few main steps in your journey to achieve our highest level of obedience. But personally we believe the main factor would have to be the relationship between you and your trainer.

-First you need to choosing the right trainer for you
(this is such an crucial part of your journey.)
-Be willing to listen and willing to trust your trainers advice
(over YouTube or a video you saw on TikTok last week.)
-Put in the time and effort to achieve the behaviours and obedience you want.
(you get what you give! 20% effort at home = 20% learnt at home, it may start at home, but you need to practice in multiple places once you have the basics down from level 1/beginners. So don’t complain when your dog isn’t as reliable as the owner putting in 80% effort in multiple settings)

Our trainers at Mutts About Training are not just here for a one-off interaction with you. We want to build up our dog community and provide excellent training, guidance and care to all clients!
We are aware it can be scary, out of your comfort zone or seem silly that you 'need help' BUT! let us reassure you, not all dogs are perfect and seeking a little guidance to take your dog from "eh, his okay, glad my dog doesn’t do that" to "omg I wish my dog did that! What a good boy!" is worth a little discomfort in the beginning.

At Mutts About Training, we want the public to see that we don’t just β€˜talk the talk’ we β€˜walk the walk’ as well!
Check out this fantastic crew
Practice makes perfect guys, and you can see all the hard work our Master handlers have put into their dogs as we start to put all of our training into action in some real-life situations

Preach!

I continue to have the same conversation with owners even with the smallest things..

Do not practice behaviours as a pup, adolescent or adult that you don't want in a fully grown dog.. period.

But it's cute* , it dosent bother me* is the main answer I receive.. until the dog dose said behaviour in the wrong setting... and now it's a problem.

Train the pup/dog for the fully grown dog you want to have.
