The biggest of thank yous to everyone who was so wildly generous as to give myself and the girls some gifts for Christmas! It's so touching that anyone would extend their Christmas gifting thoughts to us over an already busy time of year!!

You asked, we've delivered!
Many of our clients have asked us to do some walking over the Christmas period. After checking with the girls, we've come up with a timetable that suits everyone.

Please note - walks over this time will be charged with Weekend Walking Rates. We will also not be doing any training over this time.

It's a matter of first in, best dressed, so if would like your dog to join us over that time, please get in touch ASAP so you don't miss out!
If you have already talked to us previously about walks over this time and the dates match up, we have already booked your dogs in, but please don't hesitate to check with us ☺️

"Dogs pull about 60% harder on a leash when wearing a harness compared to a collar, even when marketed as 'anti-pull'.

Just train your dogs guys. It's the best and truly only alternative to having a dog that pulls.

Accidentally drew a crowd getting this pack photo!

Puppers making me look good as always!!

I always have a lot of fun getting pack photos, but they serve a purpose beyond just a cute shot. They teach dogs concepts of impulse control, to focus even amongst distractions, to hold sit/stays and 'place' commands. You want a dog you can put anywhere and trust they're going to stay there? Doing random training just like this is how you do it!

"Sam is absolutely incredible. Since her time with Sam over the last few months, we’ve seen such a huge improvement in our dog, Honey. ✨ Sam has helped her develop into a confident and obedient lil pup! If we could take Sam to the Gold Coast with us, we absolutely would. 100000% recommend!!!!!!"

Honey is off to a new chapter in life, a life on the coast filled with beach days and Cafe trips! I'm gonna miss this absolute treasure of a pup. She was SO much fun to work with and has all the potential in the world. Have fun you two!!

From between 23/12/24-6/01/25, we will be taking a break!
We will be running some limited walks over that time, but availability is limited - If interested, please reach out well in advance to get your pup in!

Ruby needs our help!!

The community that has sprung up around StackedPack is an absolutely beautiful one and there is no doubt that Ruby is an integral part of the StackedPack family. If you have anything to spare, please consider donating to help her get through this horrible event!

Introducing Erin!

Please welcome our newest member to the StackedPack team! Erin currently works for Jogs for Dogs in Brisbane and is already familiar with pack behaviour and pack walking - and more than that, runs packs of dogs 🤣 We won't be asking her to do that with us! She's very excited to be joining the team and meeting all our pack and learning all about them and is currently in training with us (some of you may have been seeing her traveling around with Sam!) but will hopefully soon be taking walks independently ☺️

Would you believe it?? Jorja has been with us for just over a year already!!
So thankful to this beautiful girl. She has proven herself to be an exceptionally hard worker, so willing to learn and apply herself and of course, the dogs have all come to ADORE her (as have we!).

So appreciative of everything you have done with us and excited to see what's in store!!

He had a lot of fun on our excursions and the fun meant he was less white and more... Brown 🤣

Handsome Charlie Boy went on a big excursion with Stacked Pack Dog Walking yesterday! I wish I took a before photo! ❤️

I have no caption.
I just think this may be one of the best photos I've ever taken and wanted to share!
Featuring my .au shirt which is still my favourite shirt to wear when working!

I know there's a few pups we take out that this could apply to! 😊

🐾 Calling all owners of dogs with behaviour problems! Join our research study! The human-animal bond in dogs with behavioural problems in Australia! 🐾 🐶

In collaboration with The University of Queensland and Future Proof Training Academy, this project aims to uncover the prevalence of behavioural issues among dogs in Australia and their impact on the bond between pets and their caregivers.

If you're 18+, based in Australia, and have a dog over 6 months old, we need your insights! Your participation involves filling out a questionnaire (approx. 20-30 min). Your contribution will help shape strategies to prevent behavioural problems and strengthen the human-animal bond.

Together, let's make a difference in understanding and supporting our furry friends.

Client Review!
"Sam and her team are awesome! They took on my very nervous and highly strung dog, Larry (who had a fabulous combo of dog AND human aggression!) and turned him into a regular pup. I’m not sure how they do it, but Larry is now calmer, more regulated and way more confident as a result of his walks and training sessions. HIGHLY recommend booking with this crew, we wish we could take them with us to NSW! Considering even putting them in the will! 😭😭😭"

All the dogs we take on become special to us in their own ways, but Larry was one of those hard won success cases that endeared him to us forever. It took him three weeks for him to decide I was alright and stop attempting to snap at me every time I got 'too close' 😂. And even once he got over his fear towards us, he was quite fearful towards many dogs - especially if they had a smooshy face. Boxers in particular. By the end of his year with us, not only was one of his best friends a boxer, but he was one of the dogs we could trust the most. Off leash, on leash, new meets with dogs, new meets with people. He learned and grew so much and we feel so lucky to have been able to be part of his journey. We already miss him dearly and he is welcome back to the StackedPack any time!!!
