Canine Education Academy

Canine Education Academy Dog Training in a Fun and Supportive setting since June 2017
Southern Highlands in NSW, Australia Dogs are my life.

We acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the land where we work and live, the Wodi Wodi people of the Gundungurra nation and pay our respects to Elders past and present. We celebrate the stories, culture and traditions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders of all communities who also work and live on this land. Sydney and surrounds has long needed a dedicated dog training facility that h

as capacity to host trainers from not only Australia but beyond. Canine Education is close to my heart, as the founder and manager of one of the most dynamic Animal Welfare Charities in NSW, I have seen great dogs fail, and other dogs languish because their handlers didn't have the skills or knowledge to get the dog they wanted. In a perfect world all dogs get to have great homes and while I no longer work in Animal Welfare, I do believe the smarter we train, the better we become at having great dogs. Our mission is to help people and dogs get the training they need and provide a quality space for people to work with their dogs. With our beautiful location and 900sqm training field we have provided assistance to the dog training community for almost five years. We have hosted over 140 workshops in and around the Southern Highlands since 2017, including hosting three Agility World Champions. In addition we have run Behaviour Training Workshops, Instructor Training and Hoopers and Nose Works training. Your event is important to us and we look forward to helping you have a fantastic clinic, including accommodation and catering. I first attended obedience classes in 1976 with my mixed breed dog, Tibby. We have lost count of the dogs we have fostered into their permanent homes, and we truly believe that every dog matters. We look forward to seeing you at Robertson soon,
Mark and Lisa Wright

Dealing with canine separation anxiety and aggression can feel overwhelming and isolating, not to mention how deeply distressing it is for our dogs. 💔🐾

That’s why we want to help people find a way forward with tangible strategies and support, not more generic advice.

👉 This three-day professional program is designed to take you from first assessment to real-world decision-making in some of the most complex behaviour cases we face.

Those attending in person will get the invaluable chance to practice these skills hands on with our incredible hosts, and the opportunity to network with other trainers, vets, behaviourists, and owners, in similar situations 🏋️‍♂️🤝

If you can’t make it in person, don’t miss out on live-stream tickets! 🎟🎟🎟

When around dogs with aggression and separation anxiety behaviours, you may look back and wonder about initial warning signs, and what could have been done differently… ❤️‍🩹🤔💭

The reality is that these undesirable behaviours are just the tip of the iceberg of what is going on emotionally for our dogs 💔 and the responsibility to help improve our dog’s quality of life can feel overwhelming.
💡To support dogs and their guardians in these situations, what is needed is a clear roadmap for assessment, diagnosis, and intervention 📝

That’s what we are presenting: FROM START TO FINISH: SUCCESS IN AGGRESSION AND SEPARATION ANXIETY CASES - With Michael Shikashio CDBC and Dr. Moira Hechenleitner DVM, CSAT.

This seminar explores how medical, emotional, and environmental factors intersect, and offers a start-to-finish approach to handling aggression cases complicated by separation anxiety, ensuring safer outcomes for dogs, handlers, and the wider community. 🐶🐾

We want this crucial information to reach people who need it. That includes Veterinarians ⛑️ Veterinary Behaviourists 👩‍⚕️ Dog Trainers 🏋️ Dog Owners 🐶 Pet Sitters 🏡 Dog Walkers 🐕 Behaviour Consultants 👩‍🏫 & Shelter Staff ❤️
When each person involved in the care of a dog is informed and confident about managing these behaviours, intervention strategies can lead to great success!

As we count down the days to this seminar, we are giving away some prezzies 🎁🎁🎁 including bonus online modules, additional Q&A opportunities, and more! All ticket holders have a chance of winning these bonuses, so if you already have your ticket, stay tuned…

If not 👉 secure your ticket now and join this opportunity to learn 💪 and practice 💪 proven strategies in managing these cases.
