Meet Dante 🐾

A 5 month old Rottweiler with an extremely invested owner, looking to make the best start possible with her new furry family member.

She has already done such a fantastic job working on some basics, introducing some regulation techniques, and providing structure, which is very important for a pup - especially one that's going to be a big dog sooner rather than later.

See photo 3 toward the end of our session 😅😴

Meet Harvey and Tachi 🐾

Their owner reached out with some issues of barking at the front door, which is waking up her baby. Harvey (left) has a little bit of anxiety, and the barking has now rubbed off on Tachi.

We worked on how to help Harvey's emotional state in general and how to set up scenarios to help practice new, calmer behaviours. Rome wasn't built in a day, as they say, but Harvey is a smart boy and took to the training very quickly!

Looking forward to seeing how they go 👏

Puppy sleep tips with Ajax 😍

Play some calming, meditative music when its sleep time for your pup and sit next to the crate while they learn to fall asleep in their safe space. They will become conditioned to the crate + music = sleep time, which will help with routine and make things easier for everyone.

Tired puppy ❤️

13/12/2025

Meet Nyx! 4 months old and full of beans. She has since welcomed a little (not for long) fur brother, so the house is in full puppy mode.

Helping their parents to navigate two puppies and prevent issues before they arise is vital with two dogs that will be huge before you know it!

Stay tuned for more baby amstaff photos 😍

Meet Zimmy ✨️

Zimmy has been experiencing some general anxiety that has resulted in some reactivity towards most unfamiliar dogs. Luckily for her, her Mum is an absolute legend that takes her training homework very seriously!

These two have made immense progress in a short amount of time and have proved that with the right information and some consistent effort, results are just around the corner.

Very proud of them and can't wait to see the progress continue 👏👏

Pro tip: train OUTSIDE of the dog park and get your dog comfortable relaxing with strange dogs playing and barking in the background. Msg to find out WHY that is so important.

Meet Dash ❤️🐕

A young husky in a new home, who is still coming out of his shell, and learning that kids and the outside world aren't as scary as they may seem.

Patience and time are key for this lovely family and their new furry addition. They are also getting their kiddies involved in Dash's routine, so that he knows that he creates some positive associations with them bringing him his food or afternoon treat.

Slow and steady will win this race 🏁

This may not look like much, but it's massive. Read on for more.

KeKe was a recent rescue to my clients who have done their absolute best to give her a new lease on life. KeKe had no world experience, as she was used as a breeding dog that didn't get out of the property much, if at all.

Fear of new things resulted in KeKe desperate to try and protect herself, unfortunately, by biting to create space from herself and the seemingly scary situation or person.

KeKe is a dog who needs calm, time, and space. Which is why, in this scenario, I didn't interact directly with her unless she specifically invited it. The result? A much calmer version of herself, even choosing to lay down and face away from me (a potential threat) - this shows trust and a level of peace in the environment. Respect your dogs boundaries and the results will astound you.

Can't wait to see this girl thrive in her new home with her beautiful new owners.

Life lately with my 3 girls 💕

19/01/2024

Exciting news! I am currently on maternity leave as we eagerly await the arrival of a new pack member. Brooklyn and Luna can't wait to meet their little sister 💕

During this time, the website will be temporarily inactive, and I unfortunately won't be available to take any inquiries as we will be prioritising family in this time.

We appreciate your understanding, and while I'm uncertain about the exact return date, I look forward to coming back refreshed and ready to share more paws-itive training insights with you.

Thank you to all of the incredible clients that have made this year such an enjoyable one - you will all be missed! Keep up your training and homework - your dogs will thank you for it.

To anyone looking for a trainer to assist you and your furry friend, please ensure that they are fully qualified in Dog Training and Behaviour, and practice up to date and scientifically backed methods of positive reinforcement.
