"Our Belgian Malinois (Bear) became part of our family at 8 weeks old and is now 2 years old. He is an amazing and affectionate family pet, full of energy and wonderful with our two young girls. Being a Malinois he loves his ball and can go and go all day so we knew early on that we needed to be firm and harness his energy. We have previously had dogs that responded well to food reward training and quickly saw we would need something else with Bear. We had tried three different "dog trainers" in our local area only to realise that we needed someone who understood larger breeds, and more particularly, a Belgian Malinois. We contacted Scott to outline the concerns and challenges we were having with Bear. Despite Scott being in Sydney at the time, he was at our door later that afternoon! Scott's knowledge, experience and most importantly, genuine passion for dogs is evident throughout each session we have had with him. Scott understands the importance of identifying any underlying concerns and works with you to address them. We have also been out to Scott's training facility in Murrumbateman and had a terrific day, Bear was able to socialize with other dogs and their owners and work through more training techniques. I cannot recommend Scott highly enough, if you are experiencing challenging behaviour with your dog - it will be the last call you need to make!" More...

"A couple of months ago I reached out to Scott to help my beautiful girl River, a Dutch Shepherd with a high drive and impulse control issues. Scott was able to quickly assess us as a team, and develop a tailored program that provided the structure and progression that River needed, but more importantly taught me how to teach River. I couldn't be happier with the progression that we've made in a short period of time. River has progressed to working off lead, and being able to spend quality time inside with the family etc., we're moving beyond teaching into genuine training. Both our confidence levels have gone from strength to strength, and instead of fighting, we're spending enjoyable quality time together. Scott has the ability to blend obedience training with behaviour development, and I can't recommend his services highly enough". More...
