"Abby and I really enjoyed the class. I found the "individual attention" on my dog’s needs to be very helpful and I was able to apply the techniques easily.

I have found the notes a great help and have referred back to them to check on what I am doing.

I would recommend your classes to anybody with a puppy."

"Not only we were impressed with Monique and Carolyn's professionalism but also with their constant encouragement, guidance, warmth and friendliness.

They were quick to follow-up whole class directions / instructions with one-on-one reassurance, reinforcement and coaching.

As for Jack! He improved noticeably over the time he had with the class and continues to do so as we keep working on what we learnt during the sessions with Monique and Carolyn

We highly recommend ClubK9 - and can confidently say that Jack does too!"

- Sandy, Don & Jack

Dog Training & Behaviour

 

Club K9 offers a range of dog training options taught by experienced, qualified trainers.

From personal experience and our academic learning and research in behavioural science, we have found that the most successful way to train any dog is through the use of reward based methods.

Reward based training creates a fun, calm learning environment for both dog and owner.

You will not see in any of our training programs, the use of choke chains, prong collars, shock collars or the administering of any physical force.

DOG TRAINING ONE ON ONE

If a class environment does not suit you or your dog Club K9 is available for 1:1 dog training at the centre.

DOG BEHAVIOUR CONSULTATIONS

Club K9 offers behavioural advice for owners of dogs who may be displaying problem behaviours. Some examples of problem behaviours are:

  • Aggression
  • Fear/Phobias
  • Separation Anxiety
  • Hyperactivity, over stimulation
  • Attention seeking
  • Excessive barking
  • Resource guarding
  • Destructive behaviours

The initial consultation is approximately 1½ hours in length. During the consultation we will take a thorough history of your dog and the problem behaviour. We will observe your dog and make an assessment. A behavioural modification program will be implemented where we will demonstrate practical applications and management techniques to help with the problem behaviour.

A written report outlining our recommendations will be sent to you after the first session.

Cost $200 includes 2 sessions. In some cases only 2 sessions are required. Follow up sessions as required are at a reduced rate.

Behavioural consultations may be held at the centre or in the dog’s home environment depending on the behaviour that is being exhibited.
For appointments please email or phone Club K9.
