It’s Invisible Disabilities Week (19–25 October)! 🌻💛

It’s estimated that around 80% of disabilities are non-visible. These can include neurological, cognitive, sensory, mental health and chronic conditions that aren’t always immediately apparent.

Not all disabilities are visible, but a little understanding and kindness can go a long way in helping everyone feel seen, understood and supported.

The Hidden Disabilities Sunflower helps people with non-visible disabilities discreetly indicate that they may need additional support, understanding or patience. 🌻

🐾 WHAT WOULD YOUR DOG ENJOY? 🐾

Training isn’t just about teaching your dog to sit, stay and walk nicely on lead.

It can become something you both genuinely enjoy doing together. 💙💛

This week our Bonding Beyond Basics groups have been having fun working through different activities — building confidence, body awareness, focus, communication and, most importantly, enjoying working together.

And this is where your training journey with us can take you…

🐶 PUPPY SKILLS
For puppies aged 8–12 weeks at the start of the course. A gentle introduction to training, confidence, socialisation and those all-important everyday puppy skills.

🐾 EVERYDAY SKILLS 1
For dogs starting their training journey with us. Build the foundations for everyday life — focus, recall, lead skills, settling, communication and more.

🐕 EVERYDAY SKILLS 2
Take those foundations further with more distractions, challenges and practical skills.

💙 BONDING BEYOND BASICS
You’ve learnt the basics — now let’s have some fun with them!

BBB gives you and your dog the opportunity to keep learning through different activities and challenges while developing confidence, communication and your relationship together.

🌙 Evening BBB classes available

Our next 5-week courses start from the week beginning 17 October.

🐾 ASSISTANCE DOG GROUP TRAINING — ROCKINGHAM WA 🐾

Training your own Assistance Dog?

Our 5-week Assistance Dog Group Course provides ongoing, practical training and support as you and your dog work towards becoming a confident, reliable team.

These classes go beyond basic obedience. We work on the skills an Assistance Dog needs for everyday life, including:

🐕‍🦺 Calm behaviour around people and other dogs
🏪 Training in real-world environments
🦮 Lead work and handler focus
🪑 Settling quietly while you get on with everyday life
🌎 Confidence with different sights, sounds, surfaces and environments
🎯 Individual skills relevant to you and your dog
💜 Building a strong, trusting working partnership

Training includes sessions at our Dog Training & Enrichment Centre in Rockingham, WA, as well as opportunities to practise skills out in the community.

Our groups are small and supportive, allowing us to work with each team at the stage they’re currently at.

📅 5-week course
📍 Rockingham, WA
💰 $175

🐾 A heads-up for dog owners! 🐾

On Monday 27 July at 12:00 pm AWST, a national AusAlert test message will be sent to mobile phones across Australia.

While it’s only a test, the loud emergency alert sound can be startling for many dogs—especially those that are noise-sensitive, anxious, puppies, or dogs currently working through confidence training.

If you have:
📱 An old mobile phone at home
📱 A spare work phone
📱 A tablet

consider switching it off or putting it into Airplane Mode before 12:00 pm, then leaving it off for at least an hour if no one is home. This can help prevent an unexpected alert from frightening your dog while you’re out.

If you’re home when the alert sounds:
🐾 Stay calm.
🐾 Avoid fussing over your dog’s reaction.
🐾 Reward calm behaviour with treats or a favourite activity.
🐾 If your dog is worried, give them space and allow them to settle at their own pace.

Every little bit of planning helps build your dog’s confidence around unexpected noises.

Please share this with other dog owners so they can prepare too. 💙🐶
