The Dog Project The Dog Project was founded in 2010 to provide the local community with easily accessible dog training classes and advice.

The Dog Project provides dog training classes & individual consultations for puppies and adult dogs, behaviour modification solutions for common problems, and guidance and assistance with any dog related behaviour enquiries. We work throughout Wollongong and the Illawarra. The Dog Project's mission is to help Australian dog owners better communicate with their dogs so that they can live happily together. We focus on developing a great relationship between owner and dog, balancing obedience and calm with lots of fun. We use positive rewards-based training methods which are fun, but most importantly, effective.

Some great info on helping our ageing dogs thrive.

As our dogs age, changes in strength, mobility and physical function can gradually impact their comfort, confidence and quality of life. While slowing down is often considered a normal part of ageing, many of these changes can be positively influenced through early intervention, targeted exercise and appropriate management strategies.

Drawing on real-life clinical examples, we’ll demonstrate how small, consistent changes can make a significant difference to a dog’s long-term physical health and wellbeing.
