Let's Talk Dog Training

Is Your Dog Stubborn?

Is Your Dog More Interested in Everything Else Other Than You?

Is Your Dog Obsessed with Food?

Does Your Dog Misbehave In Public?

Would You Like to Take Your Dog Everywhere With You But Cant Trust Him?

It Really Is That Simple

Good dog training should not only produce lasting results, it should also be fun for you and your dog.

My training is based on the LIMA principle.

"Least Intrusive, Minimally Aversive"

Which means that learning is enjoyable for your dog and importantly, sensible for you.

It really is easy when you know how.

Training For Your Lifestyle

We Specialise in Active, Strong and Working Breeds.

Claude Bertoni at K-9iQ pioneered lifestyle dog training which basically means that your dog isn't a robot focused on competition obedience, but rather is able to deal with "real life" situations that you will encounter, such as;

Being able to take your dog to a busy cafe and know for certain it will stay and ignore all that is around it
Being able to take your dog anywhere that you go such as the beach, parks, camping, on public transport etc knowing it will behave well unconditionally
Being sure that your dog will not obey strangers
Being sure that your dog will not take food from strangers

My Training Guarantee

Successful Training requires Good Training Methods and equally as important Consistent Effort from Dog Owners.

K-9iQ is able to resolve the vast majority of Dog Behaviour Problems in just one session, however some will require on-going attention by you with my Free on call assistance to help you get it right.

If for some reason I am not able to do this, follow up sessions will be offered at significantly reduced rates until the issue is resolved. I will know this once I have assessed the problems your Adult Dog or Puppy is experiencing.

I target the cause of the problem not the symptoms so this may take a little longer to resolve.

I will design a simple and straight forward training programme for you to follow on completion of our in home session together.

If after this you are still not happy with my service I will happily refund you your initial consultation fee less my modest call out charge.
