Most bites don’t come without warning.

The warning just gets ignored… or punished.

Growling isn’t bad behaviour.
It’s communication.

When we correct the growl, we don’t make the dog safer — we make them quieter.
The discomfort stays.
The signal disappears.

That’s how dogs end up labelled “unpredictable.”

I unpack this properly in our Friday Field Notes — lessons from working dogs and working lives.

No fear-mongering.
No blame.
Just clarity.

“He’s never like this at home.”

That’s something I hear all the time when dogs struggle in public.

At home, the world is predictable.
Outside, everything changes — smells, sounds, pressure.

Most dogs aren’t being disobedient.
They’re overwhelmed.

Perfection is the target

We are a small yet accomplished dog and puppy training team.

My name is Jarred Hodgson and I have trained as a dog trainer, scent dog handler, canine body language expert, canine nutrition and dog first aider. All my training was done in the UK where I started my first dog training business in 2018. I have since moved back to South Africa and am trying to start a movement from old school training methods to positive reinforcement. It is my goal to show people that training and bonding with your dog through positive reinforcement will achieve much better results than previous methods of training. In South Africa we are well behind the rest of the world in many aspects and dog training is one of them. There is very little effort and care put into dog training and I am here to change that. With Sam, my trusty Belgian Malinois by my side, we are going to train dogs and teach humans.

I specialise in puppy training and scent dog training.

Puppy Training can start when the puppy is only 8 weeks old. I always say that the sooner you start training the better, it reduces the chances of a puppy learning bad habits which are harder to change. We offer basic obedience up to advanced obedience, a board and train program, group classes and one to one training for puppies.
