Frequently Asked Questions

How much does is cost?

Initial Sessions are $199 and Follow Up Sessions are $150.

What training methods do you use?

I am what’s known as a balanced trainer, which means I use a combination of rewards, structure, and accountability in my approach. Every dog is different, so I tailor my methods to suit their temperament and your goals, always prioritising clear communication and fair expectations.

How long will it take to train my dog?

This depends on your dog’s personality, behavioural issues, history, and, most importantly, how consistent you are with training at home. While some dogs may take more time than others to see lasting results, most of my clients will see considerable improvements in just one session.

Can you fix aggression or reactivity?

This is my speciality, so in most cases, yes—but it takes time, structure, and a clear plan. Aggression and reactivity often stem from fear, confusion, or lack of boundaries. I work to build your dog’s confidence and teach them better ways to cope and respond.

My dog is too old to be trained, it’s too late.

It is an absolute myth that you “can’t teach an old dog new tricks”. While puppies are generally more impressionable, dogs of all ages can learn. Older dogs often pick things up quickly—they just need consistency, patience, and clear communication.

I've tried everything before.

You’re not alone! A lot of dog owners come to me feeling frustrated after trying multiple things with little success. Most training fails because it’s either too soft, too harsh, or just inconsistent. I take a balanced, practical approach that’s clear, fair, and tailored to your dog.

No more trial and error—I’ll show you exactly what to do, and you’ll likely start seeing results within days, not months.

i don’t have enough time to train my dog.

You don’t need to spend hours a day training your dog. Just a few minutes of the right approach can make a huge difference. I’ll show you how to fit training into your normal routine—so it works with your life, not against it.
