Tim Radcliffe Dog Training

Tim Radcliffe Dog Training A professional dog trainer providing a positive stress free environment help you to train your dog I am a motivated dog trainer keen to help dogs and owners.

I have 25 years professional dog training experience including a successful 18-year career in the NZ Police Dog Section. I am currently a Detector Dog Handler and also a Trainer/ Assessor for NZ Land SAR Dogs. I have a wealth of knowledge of puppy development, scent and nose work, shaping new behaviours, counter conditioning undesirable behaviours and problem solving. Through my experience in hand

ling and training many dogs I have the ability to understand the dog’s behaviour and implement the best learning method for the individual dog. This has been particularly successful around reactivity, recall, lead walking and general engagement and environmental generalisation.

This weekend we said goodbye to our dear old girl Aggie. She was more than my own dog, she was the inspiration behind my business logo and a huge part of the reason I do what I do. Losing her has reminded me why I care so deeply about the work I do. We only have our dogs for a short time and that time matters. Helping people understand their dogs, strengthen their bond and make the most of every stage of life is at the heart of everything I do. They are not with us long enough which is why the time we have with them means so much. Rest easy Agatha and look after all those doggos that will one day cross the rainbow bridge. 🐶💔🩷

Chewy’s been coming in for a weekly day train. The initial training objective was focussed on dog reactivity, but I noticed a gap in his environmental confidence. As all good trainers would do I’ve modified the training focus to look at the big picture of his whole temperament and come up with an appropriate training journey to allow him to be his best self.
Town visits, new environments and starting slow. Not pushing him, just letting him take it all in and building on his resilience.
Good things take time. He’s getting there. 🐾

Your dog is always reading you. When you move with confidence and clarity training stops being a struggle and starts becoming a dance. Flow in training isn’t about perfection. It’s about building an engagement that your dog can trust.

Tired of cookie-cutter training that doesn’t work?
Your dog is unique. Your training should be too. My 5-day home based bespoke board and train programme is designed for dogs and owners I’ve already worked with, targeting the specific pain points and goals you have. After each days training your dog will chill and decompress in my home environment. No generic solutions, just real-world results.
These two German Shepherds are a testament to what’s possible with targeted training. Ready to unlock your dog’s full potential?
