Harry the cavoodle is 6 years old and he's always been a barker at home. Every unfamiliar sound or sight outside would set off his barking, up to ten times a day.

Any sign that his owner was getting ready to leave would also send him into a frantic barking episode.

He was not reactive on walks though.

Harry needed clarity on who was responsible for monitoring changes in and around his home.

After just an hour, his owner had communicated that Harry no longer needed to 'stand guard' all the time. He settled down and stopped reacting to everything that used to set him off, right before our eyes.

He even accepted a visit from a family member's exuberant puppy, who he used to bark and snarl at.

Most behaviour issues aren't this easy to change. But not everything needs a series of lessons and exhaustive management.

Are you ready to do the work to have the dog you always wanted?

Get in touch and I'll be happy to discuss flexible options for training with me.

Game 1, Round Two. Milo just arrived for training.

He's an anxious and insecure 11 month old spoodle. Separation anxiety, noise sensitivity, and excessive barking make everyday life a challenge for him and his family (and their neighbours).

Developing the possession game and establishing some rules and boundaries is where we're starting.

Life with a dog is meant to be enjoyed.

Stay tuned for Milo's progress.

Somehow this beautiful baby dog turned 1 last week!

She's still an absolute sweetheart, now with a healthy dose of Adolescent Pest and Boundary Pusher in the mix.

Happy birthday Brandy ❤️

This might not look like anything special to the untrained eye. But this was a big moment for Chance. He 'doesn't like water'.

He was recently adopted after growing up in an apartment and not being socialised. Unsurprisingly, he struggles with new situations and barks and lunges at dogs on walks.

He doesn't realise it yet, but there's a lot of dog in his little kelpie frame. Bringing him out and building him up is a crucial part of his training.

Soon he will love the water and other things that worry him.

In July we trailed at the first German shepherd style sheep herding trial in QLD in over a decade.

Baby girl Brandy (10 months old) passed the Herding Instinct Test 🎉

Momma Jade (3.5 years old) passed the Herding Instinct Test AND one leg of the very tricky Pre Trial Test 🌟 She would have passed the second leg of the PT if I had handled the sheep more effectively.

Trialing in a dog sport for the first time is a huge learning curve and I think we did very well considering!

Preparing for this trial has taken a couple years and it's one of my favourite things to do with my dogs. The competing motivators challenge is huge with a dog and 12 sheep to guide all at once.

Thanks to Karen at DogLand for training us and hosting the trial.

Looking forward to next season!

Brandy made her debut as a helper dog in my private lessons today!

She's now 10 months old and developing beautifully.

Couldn't adore her more if I tried.

Aggressive behaviour can make basic care feel nearly impossible.

Oakley struggled, avoided, snarled, and delivered a warning nip to his owner two years ago, when his ears were terribly infected and in need of cleaning and medication. Restraining him was impossible.

Trying to do anything he didn't want to do was always a losing battle.

He lunged and barked at everyone inside and outside the vet's office as well.

Hiding allergy tablets in food was the only option they could manage.

Today his owner was able to properly treat his ears for the first time ever. This was only their second session of working directly on this issue.

Having a 'difficult' dog doesn't mean you have to avoid their triggers forever. It also doesn't mean you need to spend months or years on counter conditioning protocols.

There is a way forward.

Proud of this team and excited to see their world continue to expand!

Adolescent dogs who haven't been desexed will experience hormonal shifts that may affect their behaviour. Suddenly they act like they've forgotten everything.

This is normal. Be patient, take it easy with the training, and let them adjust to the changes. This phase usually lasts a couple weeks. Their brain will be back online soon enough.

Thanks to for a couple days of brilliant Mantrailing training with Brandy before she ovulated and lost the plot 🫠

🌈🌈🌈

I love you Nandi.

We had a hell of a run together in this lifetime.

We both got lucky the day our eyes first met at the Christchurch dog pound. We travelled hundreds of thousands of kilometres together and grew greyer and wiser together for 15 years.

The road was often rough and sometimes seemed nearby impassable, but we were both too strong willed to give up. In your younger years, you loved the occasional punch up and you weren't above biting a person to make them go away. Yet at the same time you were always so gentle with your humans and easygoing as we travelled and moved homes again and again.

Our perseverance paid off and the second half of our era was exultant. You became my dog training helper, a scent detection trial ribbon winner, an animal physiotherapy student demo dog, and companion for my new puppies. It was hard to believe you were still the same rough and tumble girl.

We saw it through together til the very end.

Thank you for everything.

Until we meet again ... Run free my love. 🌈🌈🌈
