Enrique was very good.Explains everything really well

We had completely lost faith in our doggo 2 weeks ago. We didn’t think his behaviour was reversible. He was reactive on walks to other dogs, aggressive, chewing up things in the house, barking at anything and everything, and pulling to the point I couldn’t walk him anymore. Enrique came to our home to teach us all the techniques we needed to teach our dog that the world is a safe space and we can protect him. We sent him to Enrique’s doggy day care for a week after this while we were away, and my gosh, our dog has come back a brand new dog. He listens to commands, doesn’t pull on walks and heels when we tell him too, doesn’t react to dogs or people passing by, and we haven’t heard him bark since coming home. We genuinely get excited for walks with him now. Enrique, we can’t thank you enough. You have changed both ours and our dogs lives. Thankyou ! More...

My understanding of my dog and why he acts the way he does has increased after help from this academy, and because of that we have developed a more harmonious relationship and been able to successfully work on his skills.

Enrique was great and took the time to explain to us and young family how the dog feels in our world and then we ventured out to all his trigger spots to assist with our reactive measures. We look forward to continue working with Enrique for further improved outcomes. More...

Enrique is very knowledgeable and my shy, reactive Amstaff liked him immediately. After one session that included some exercises at home and a walk down a street with plenty of strange dogs to practice with, my Amstaff is not reacting to other dogs as we walk past them. I absolutely recommend Enrique and Smart Dog Training. Thank you, Enrique! More...

Thanks for your review Kim. The goal was to empower you so that your doggies start to rely on you to deal with the scary world. It looks like you did become the mighty Human that your doggy were waiting for, to finally for them, and you, enjoy the walks and stop the fights at home. It is always so satisfying, as a trainer, to observe the changes happening during the training session. It was a pleasure.

Enrique was very good and has certainly helped get my German shepherd more controlled when walking

Enrique is great and super caring! He helped me through much with my 2 dogs that suffer from littermate syndrome and had become aggressive towards each other.

Enrique is amazing! I did 1 private lesson with him at the beach with my very stubborn staffy who is a strong puller which makes walking very challenging. I was also anxious about her with other dogs. I've been to other dog trainers in the past who have told me my dog would need multiple lessons as she wasn't responding to training and too stubborn. I could tell Enrique was different & decided to give it a go and I wasn't disappointed. He was patient, calm & very insightful teaching me techniques without using dog treats. The results speak for themselves. My Staffy is walking slower & rarely ever pulls now. I feel more confident walking her & less anxious when around other dogs. She is a much more behaved dog now & I am so grateful to Enrique. Highly recommend him!! More...

Enrique is absolutely amazing! My doggo Oden was human reactive and super fearful of everything! Enrique has changed and helped me physically and mentally be a better doggo owner and to be able to let Oden be a pup and to know mum is here to protect not him 😊

DOG TRAINING
Our trainers are skilled in teaching dogs to obey commands and behave appropriately in various situations. They have a deep understanding of canine behavior, psychology, and learning theory, and use this knowledge to develop training programs. Those programs are comprehensive and tailored to the individual needs of each dog and their owner. The trainers work closely with owners to understand their goals, lifestyle, and expectations, and develops customized training plans that are practical, effective, and achievable. They educate owners on proper handling techniques, communication cues, and strategies to reinforce desired behaviors, creating a lasting and harmonious bond between the dog and their family.
Our trainers can work with dogs of all ages and breeds, from puppies to adult dogs. They use a variety of training techniques, including positive reinforcement, clicker training, and corrective measures such as using halters, collar or leash.
But mainly, more than working with dogs, our dog trainers also work with their owners to help them understand how to reinforce positive behaviors and discourage negative ones. They often conduct one-on-one training sessions. Those classes are followed by group classes, depending on the needs of the dog and its owner.
Our trainers are patient, compassionate, and able to communicate effectively with both dogs and their owners. They have excellent observation skills and are able to read a dog's body language to identify behavioral issues and modify their training approach accordingly.
Our trainers will play an important role in helping dogs become well-behaved, happy, and healthy members of their families and communities.
Doggy day-care
Super Smart Dogs uses the doggy day-care facilities at Pets Wonderland, to help the newly trained dogs to mix with other dogs. At pets wonderland, we understand that our dogs are our family. Our Doggy Daycare has been operating on the Gold Coast since 2012, with hundreds of pooches bounding through our doors over the years.
We offer a clean, safe and fun environment for your beloved pooch to develop into a happy and well socialised member of the family.
It is our duty to ensure that your pet leaves each day happy, healthy and tired so that you can experience the benefits at home. A well-exercised dog is a well-behaved dog.
Each morning the dogs will enjoy a pack walk through park walkways along Currumbin River, using up some energy as well as learning walking behaviours. They will then join in with their fellow dogs playing in our facilities that include trampolines, play houses and toys.
When the dogs are done playing or just recharging they can rest on our off the ground frame beds for the larger dogs, and soft beds for the smaller dogs.
We have a large centre, with 2 seperate sections. One for smaller and calmer dogs, and the other for larger and higher energy dogs.
Our main focus is on safety and wellbeing both for the dogs and our staff.
