Yuki Training Video
Introducing Yuki!
Yuki was used to leading the way during walks, often pulling on the leash with plenty of enthusiasm. He just loved to explore the exciting world around him. Additionally, Yuki's encounters with other dogs while out and about often resulted in barking and lunging, creating quite a bit of difficulty during walks for his family.
Yuki learned the importance of manners, starting with leash manners. Yuki excelled at keeping his handler in focus and maintaining a loose leash regardless of his surroundings, making walks a more enjoyable experience for everyone. His interactions with other dogs also saw a significant improvement, with Yuki staying focused on his handler's cues rather than being distracted by other canines. Obedience training provided Yuki with a sense of purpose and helped him practice impulse control in the face of distractions. Most notably, Yuki now responds promptly to recall commands, realizing that returning to his handler is both rewarding and enriching.
Well done, Yuki! You are a superstar!

Bolt Training Video
Meet Bolt!
A strong and enthusiastic boy, he had a tendency to pull forcefully on the leash during walks and would jump up on people in his eagerness to say hello. Additionally, Bolt showed signs of reactivity towards loud or moving objects, such as the vacuum cleaner.
Bolt has learned the art of manners and polite greetings. His leash skills showcase him walking calmly alongside his human rather than pulling with vigour. We also addressed Bolt's concerns about the vacuum cleaner, now he confidently looking to his handler for reassurance and guidance. Additionally, his obedience skills are top-notch, including an adorable recall.
We love you, Bolt. Come back soon!

Meet Louis!
The lovely Louis had recently moved to Melbourne - WELCOME FRIEND! Louis needed some help adjusting and adapting to his new busy lifestyle. He would often get distracted and pulled hard on a leash towards exciting stimuli during walks. Louis' lack of impulse control made walks challenging for both him and his owner.
After Louis' B&T Program, he has mastered impulse control, allowing him to stay focused and composed during walks. With new leash rules in place, Louis now finds his handler much more engaging, making walks a joyous experience. He has learned to prioritize his handler's commands over distractions, understanding that other dogs and people are simply part of the background. While his recall skills have significantly improved, Louis is still perfecting his ability to use his brakes.
We are super proud of this adorable boy and his family. Well done Louis, you are a star!

Meet Spencer!
Spencer was a whirlwind of energy and excitement. He approached every moment with enthusiasm, whether it was chasing after critters, birds, or even bikes and skateboards. Spencer's zest for life often overshadowed his impulse control and listening skills, as he was too busy exploring the world around him. His love for people and dogs knew no bounds, though sometimes his exuberance could be overwhelming.
Spencer has discovered a new way to channel his boundless energy. He learned that he could have just as much fun with his human companion as he did with the world around him. Through calm and focused behaviour, Spencer earned rewarding playtime and strengthened his obedience skills. Now, he walks calmly on a leash, even around potential new friends, and can maintain his composure around distractions. He's overcome his urge to chase bikes and skateboards, finding enjoyment in other activities. Spencer's recall abilities have also improved significantly, speedy little man!

Meet Harvey!
Harvey, the lovable Groodle, had a few habits that needed some polishing. He was a friendly pup, but his excitement often led to jumping up on certain people when saying hello. Additionally, Harvey could get a bit distracted around other dogs, making his recall training a bit of a challenge. Plus, his leash manners needed some fine-tuning as he occasionally veered off unexpectedly during walks with his owner.
The handsome Harvey has now mastered impulse control, no longer jumping on people during greetings. Harvey now confidently holds positions like sitting and dropping, even in the midst of distractions. His leash manners have significantly improved, and he's learned to walk alongside his handler without cutting across unexpectedly.
Hooray for Harvey! We loved working with you, you are a superstar bud π

Levi mastered commands like "drop" and "bed," laying strong foundations for his obedience. His leash manners improved significantly, making walks a more enjoyable experience for both him and his owner.

Meet Mosely!
Mosely was at the age, prime for putting boundaries to the test and enthusiastically engaging with the world. This lovely boy had developed a habit of jumping on people when excited and determinedly pulling on the leash during walks without any regard for the person on the other end.
With improved leash manners, Mosely now walks calmly beside his handler without any pulling, making walks enjoyable for both him and his human. He learned to greet people politely, showing off his newfound manners and social skills. Mosely also mastered holding positions like sitting, even in busy settings with distractions all around. He loves playing fetch and tug-of-war, which we used to reinforce his good choices!
Atta boy, Mosely! You are a true superstar and we miss you heaps!
