Follow Up Program
Our follow up program is the most important part of the program. This is where you learn everything the dog knows and are taught how to achieve the same results at home. The training is simple, but there is a small amount of homework for you to ensure that the training "sticks" and the results you want are realised. We work hard to ensure a smooth transition home for the dog and for you.
We provide multiple in-home sessions to teach you everything you need to know and practice the new skills in public to help you gain the confidence you need.
We also offer weekend Dog + Owner walks to join other owners who have done the program, for a bush walk of joyful fun. These are run on a regular basis and are designed to help you step outside your comfort zone and help you to tackle situations that you may be too nervous to do by yourself. We are there with you every step of the way to help and support you if you have questions.
Our Refresher group classes, are best attended 6-12 months down the track, and are a great way to keep you on the right track and teach you even more, to help you keep progressing and remind you of things you may have forgotten.
Plus we are here to help you. Whether its weird questions or us tagging along as you try something new, we are here to support you as you open the door to new opportunities and adventures with your dog.
After the program, your dog is always sorted for holidays with discounted Homestay rates if you ever need a place for your dog to stay when you go away!
