Bark Dog Training

Bark Dog Training Committed to bringing out the best in your dog using positive training methods Send us a message to get started!

Imagine a life where walks are leisurely strolls and not tug-of-wars, where your dog listens when you call them, and where you and your pup are speaking the same language! At Bark Dog Training, we speak fluent ‘woof’ and ‘arf’ and can teach you how to as well! We use fun, science-based, positive reinforcement techniques to help your dog become the best they can be. From positive learning experienc

es for your spry puppies to advanced skills and manners for adult canines, we’ll customise a programme that’ll make your pup’s tail wag and make you smile! We offer group classes, private training, and daytime training/enrichment sessions. Classes and training sessions available in Central and West Auckland. TRAINING PHILOSOPHY
At Bark Dog Training, we believe that dog training should be a joyful and enriching experience—not just for your four-legged family member but for you as well. Positive reinforcement is the heartbeat of our training methodology. Using this approach, we reward desired behaviours, making it fun and motivating for your dog to learn. Instead of focusing on what your dog is doing wrong, we highlight what they’re doing right! When your dog understands that certain behaviours bring treats, affection, or playtime, they’re naturally encouraged to repeat those behaviours.

"This book is not only an enjoyable read for the whole family but also an educational tool, equipping children with knowledge and important life skills to stay safe around all dogs."
This book will be a valuable resource for teaching kids to learn how to live safely and happily with their canine family members, and for canine family members to live happily with their human families. I'm excited to have already ordered a copy.

🌟 Exciting News! 🌟

I couldn't wait until Wednesday to share this — I’m absolutely thrilled to announce the release of my new children's book, perfect for a Christmas gift! 🎄

Though dogs don’t speak, they have a lot to say! 🐶

In A Friend Named Dog, young readers will learn how to understand dog body language and create safe, happy friendships. They’ll explore the right ways to pat a dog, how to play with them and recognise when a dog needs space.

This book is not only an enjoyable read for the whole family but also an educational tool, equipping children with knowledge and important life skills to stay safe around all dogs.

🤩 Shipment is on its way and pre-orders are now available! Secure your copy today here:

EDIT: I'm all sorted with a puppy for training this time. Thanks everyone! Stay tuned for doggy fitness classes and new training offerings coming soon!
Puppy needed (8 weeks to 6 months old) 🐾 for a free canine fitness training session today (Thursday) or Friday!
My name is Sarah and I run Bark Dog Training. I am currently completing a Certified Professional Canine Fitness Trainer certification and I'm looking for a puppy owner who would like to do a session of fitness training with their puppy!
I will be videoing the session so I can get feedback from my course instructors about the quality of my instruction for both the puppy owner and the puppy.
The session will run about 20 minutes and we'll be working on things like basic body positions with correct form, following a food lure, beginning movement and proprioception exercises, and more! The session will be fun and both physically and mentally enriching for your puppy. Fitness training is great to build a happy healthy dog, to prepare your dog for sports or an active lifestyle, and to help prevent injuries. It's fantastic for puppies to do fitness training to encourage brain development. I train using positive reinforcement, so your puppy will need to be happy to take food treats throughout the session.
I will need to do the session either later today (Thursday afternoon or evening) or Friday morning.
You don't have to have done any training with your puppy (but if you have done training already with me or anyone else, that's great!), and I'm happy to also answer any training questions you have after our fitness session.
Thank you!!
