Training does not stick without practice around real distractions: other dogs, new people, open space. These coach-led drop-in classes give you exactly that, in a structured environment with a certified trainer keeping every dog set up for success. Suitable for puppies, adult dogs and reactive dogs needing guidance around distractions.

Classes run every Saturday at Freshwater Creek Community Hall, 445 Dickins Road, Freshwater Creek. No booking required, just turn up when it suits: Intermediate runs 8:30 to 9:30am for dogs with previous training, and Introductory runs 9:30 to 10:30am for new dogs and owners. Long lines and clickers are provided, and treats are available or bring your own. Classes take a break over Christmas, and any week-to-week changes are posted on the Facebook page first.

“Cam’s a gem. He’s been fantastic with our dog Otis. Straight away he built a great connection with him and explained things to us in a really clear and practical way. The training has already made a noticeable difference and it’s given us a lot more confidence working with Otis.”
