We offer one-on-one behaviour modification and training consultations catered to working/herding breed (and apparent crossbred) dogs. Our consults focus on you and your dog/s specific needs and goals with a specialist focus on the style of training suited to working breed needs and drives. I provide notes about the consult by email within approximately a week to ensure you have a reference point for the training. Consults can be held in your own home or on my property in Burpengary East, QLD. Service area includes North Brisbane suburbs, Moreton Bay region and southern Sunshine Coast suburbs. Outside of these areas may be available with an additional travel charge for in home consults. Contact us to book a consult. Please read the terms and conditions before booking. Proof of vaccination required before attending consults.
