Need help with your dogs behaviour or just want to make your holiday beach walks less of a headache?

It all starts with an initial training & behaviour consultation. Have an experienced and qualified trainer come to you, and together we will assess what’s going on, start with some practical training & advice to move things in the right direction and get a plan in place to support you moving forward.

Ongoing support may include 1-1 coaching, or the Jump Start program where I do some of the training for you over 4 weeks.

Group classes on their week 2!
This week was all things engagement, targeting and some PLAY (my favourite thing to teach!) for our foundation students. These foundation concepts lay the groundwork we can build on for whatever goals we have for our dogs in future.
Our next steps crew tackled Kihikihi Domain, building on our listening ears around other dogs in this space, using markers to tell our dogs where to expect the reward (great for building reliable stationary behaviours), some fun tricks and general existing around other dogs.

Our next rounds of classes will be starting in mid-late January, and sign up info will be announced here.

Our final group classes for the year are off to a great start, with two new Foundation classes and our brand new Next Steps class where we are tackling different spots each week for greater reliability in different situations.

Across my classes we have everyone from teens in school, mums with new babies through to retirees, first time dog owners to professional dog handlers, with schnauzers to leonbergers, puppies to mature dogs and everything in between. The common thread though is a desire to improve relationships with their dogs, build new skills and confidence around other like minded dog owners. Love this community we’re building 🙌🏻

Good morning from Needle and Halo ✌🏻

A couple of months ago I was in a bit of a slump with my dogs. Things were starting to feel like a chore, and as a result we weren’t making the progress towards our goals that we wanted. We’ve all been there if you’ve had dogs long enough!

But motivation doesn’t just happen when we wait for it. Action is what brings on motivation.

For us, I know that getting out in nature is what refills our cup and supports the rest of what we do together. So at that point I made the commitment that hey - at least 4 times a week we’re going to fit in a good hike. We might not have “time” but we made time by getting up earlier and making it a priority in our day before getting into the work that is building a small business.

And you know what? That action of getting out and doing the thing - even on days we don’t necessarily feel like it - has lead to the motivation we needed for the rest of our goals. Like training for our first PSA trial scheduled for next year and taking on a business course with someone I’ve been listening to for years.

If we wait for the motivation, it’s not going to just magically arrive. But when you decide you’re ready to commit to change, whether that’s to do something new or restart old habits you used to enjoy with your dogs, that’s what gets the ball rolling and things get better.

What can you commit to doing with your dogs consistently to get that ball rolling?
Maybe it’s getting out on x number of adventures a week.
Maybe it’s fitting in a small training session each morning and night.
Maybe it’s committing to a group class for a set time.

Choose something, let me know about it, and get that ball rolling. 🙌🏻

Foundation classes start next week and we still have some spots available! If you want to get unstuck and start enjoying walks with your dog, build your confidence and practice listening ears around other dogs in a controlled environment this is for you.

Held in Te Awamutu, suitable for fully vaccinated pups as well as mature dogs. Two class options available.

Questions? DM me “FOUNDATIONS” to discuss whether this is the right next step for you and your dog.

Get to know your dog breed and specific line your dog is from, not just the umbrella “herding dog” term! Each herding breed was developed for a specific purpose, and understanding the types of behaviours they were specifically bred to emphasise can help us make sense of their behaviours, as well as understand how to manage and fulfil these genetic traits.

If you’re interested in learning more, I’d highly recommend spending some time watching videos of your chosen breed working stock. You can learn so much and get a much clearer appreciation for who your dog is at their core.

A handful of the recent faces I’ve been lucky enough to work with!

November is quickly filling up with some awesome dogs. In the lead up to Christmas I will not be offering weekend appointments, however do have limited after hours sessions available. If you’re having a challenge with your dog or just want a hand getting on the right track with obedience or life skills make sure you get in touch sooner rather than later to avoid disappointment. 🐾

You got your dog to get out and enjoy fun adventures with, but it’s tough to find safe environments to practice one of the biggest hurdles - listening around other dogs and people! That’s why we created the Foundation Classes, run in Te Awamutu over a 6 week course. We create a safe and supportive environment where you can learn new skills, grow your confidence as a team and your dogs listening ears so that you can get out and better enjoy your summer adventures.

With students coming from across Te Awamutu, Cambridge, Pirongia, Te Kuiti, Hamilton and Morrinsville to join us, find out more at https://www.wolfedogs.nz/foundation-class-1

PS we think these classes are pretty great, but if group classes aren’t your thing or your dog is displaying behavioural challenges better suited to 1-1 help, private coaching is also available.

Foundation class 2 graduation pics! From puppies to older dogs needing work around other dogs, we saw massive growth from these dogs and handlers both in terms of skills and confidence. Now we have the foundations in place, it will be cool seeing many of them continuing their training journey in our Next Steps classes out and about 🙏🏻

I’ve spent a little time with Jack this week! I could see him being someone’s best mate to ride around in the truck with, head on bush walks and generally be a great little side kick. Classic JR, just with a mismatched floofy face to trick everyone into thinking he’s cute 😆
