Three-week, small-group courses that take your dog beyond the basics. All held at Surf Coast Rural, Torquay.
There is nothing better than seeing your dog turn and run straight back to you instead of taking off in the opposite direction. Reliable recall, calm loose lead walking and rock-solid obedience around distractions are trained skills, not luck, and each has its own dedicated three-week course.
Every course runs as three weekly 60-minute sessions in deliberately small groups (three to five dogs) so each team gets individual coaching. All courses are force-free and reward-based, for dogs 7 months and up. Course spots are limited and bookings are essential; new intakes run through 2026, so contact Cam for the next dates.

Reactive dogs are best supported through the Reactivity Foundations course or private training; the other courses need dogs comfortable working in a group.
