We knew there were so many sports and activities available to us as dog owners, but our recent post asking what people did with their dogs really brought to light just how many there are!

The activities in these slides didn’t come from us, they came from your comments. It was great to see the responses we got and just how excited people were about their sports!

If you’re curious about any of the sports in this post, drop a comment below and if you’re already involved, share your club or group so others know where to start.

The dog who can’t hear no has never really heard yes either.

I see it a lot; owners who love their dogs so much that saying no and setting boundaries feels too strict. Correcting behaviour feels cruel.

So they avoid doing it, and instead live a life of management. Tighter leashes, fewer outings, more restrictions. A smaller and smaller life built around what they and their dog can and can’t handle.

That’s not freedom, it’s containment disguised as affection.

Balanced training asks for short term discomfort. Discomfort, not pain. A boundary held, a moment of frustration, a no that actually means no.

With consistency, what comes out the other side is a dog who can go more places, do more things, and exist in the world WITH you without you bracing for what might happen.

The no is what makes the yes possible.

Over the long weekend, myself, Cora and Charm made the trip over to Victoria to take part in the Northern Victoria Sled Dog Classic, Australia’s biggest dryland sled dog event.

It was a bit of a last-minute decision. After entering our very first race only a few weeks ago and quickly catching the bug, we figured there was no better excuse for a road trip with a few of the dogs.

What an incredible weekend it turned out to be. The event was so well run, the atmosphere was fantastic, and it was great meeting so many people who share a passion for working dogs and dog sports.

It was also our first Canicross event with Charm, who was a very good sport about my latest obsession. While she may not be setting any speed records anytime soon, she gave it a go, had a great time, and reminded me that not every dog needs to be competitive to enjoy the adventure.

A huge thank you to everyone who helped us over the weekend, offered advice, answered questions, and made us feel so welcome. We are incredibly grateful for the support.

Safe to say we’re hooked and already looking forward to the next event here in Adelaide. If you’ve ever thought about getting involved in sled dog sports, canicross, bikejoring, or scootering, reach out to the South Australian Sled Dog Club for more information. It’s a fantastic community and a great way to get out and do something fun with your dog.

You’ll definitely be seeing our faces at a few more events this season!

Terms 1 and 2 sold out and Term 3 is starting to fill.

If you’ve been thinking about joining our Back to Basics class, this is your sign.

Back to Basics is an 8-week group program built around one core idea: when you understand your dog, training stops being a battle and starts being a conversation.

Saturday mornings, 8:45am - 9:45am.
July 25th – September 12th.
Springton, SA.

Spots are limited. Head to epicdog.au to secure your place.

We could probably take on more dogs, but we won’t.

Two to three at any given time; that’s our cap for Board & Train. It’s not the most scalable model. It’s not the most profitable one either, but it’s the one that actually works.

The moment you start filling spaces to cover costs, dogs stop being individuals and start being bookings. I’ve seen it happen first hand, so we chose something different.

Some of these will resonate, some might challenge you. That’s the point.

These are the hills I’ll die on as a dog trainer, the beliefs that have been shaped through years of experience and in turn shape every session, every program, and every dog I work with.

Swipe through and tell me where you land.

I ran my first sled dog race recently, and I got some comments and messages from people who had no idea it existed in South Australia.

It got me thinking about how much is out there for our dogs, and how little of it most people know.

Sled dog racing, dock diving, noseworks, agility, IGP, obedience, group classes, herding.

Play. Hiking. Open water swimming spots. Training.

Some of it can be done in your own backyard. Some just down the road. Some of it is a community you didn’t know existed until someone mentioned it.

Your dog has one life, and there is so much more of it available to them than the same walk every day. These aren’t extras, they’re what a full life with your dog actually looks like.

So I want to hear from our community; what is something you do with your dog that others might not know about? Or what’s something on your list to try?

If I were starting out as a dog trainer tomorrow, I’d do things differently.

After more than a decade in this industry, I’ve seen what the conventional path costs both trainers, and dogs.

So here’s what I’d do instead.

And if you’re trying to find your footing in this industry and want someone to talk it through with, my door is always open.

We work better when we work together.
