Your Dog Ignores You
And it's frustrating every single day
Every day you deal with:
- •Doesn't come when called - especially when something more interesting is happening
- •Pulls on the lead like a freight train - walks are a workout, not enjoyable
- •Sits at home but ignores you everywhere else - park? Forget it
- •Only listens when there's food - no treats means no compliance
- •Embarrasses you in public - jumping, not listening, total chaos
It's not that your dog is stubborn or trying to annoy you.
They genuinely don't understand what you want or find the environment more rewarding than listening.
We can change that.
What You'll Achieve
Real results that make life with your dog actually enjoyable
Reliable Recall
Dog coming back off-lead in park. Your dog responds instantly when called, even with distractions like other dogs, squirrels or pure freedom calling them away.
Loose Lead Walking
Dog walking calmly beside owner on loose lead. Walks become enjoyable instead of exhausting. No more being dragged down the street like you're mushing a sled team.
Commands in Distractions
Dog sitting/staying while other dogs/people nearby. Sit, stay and down work at the park, beach and café, not just in your quiet living room.
Impulse Control
Dog waiting calmly at door/for food. Your dog waits patiently at doors, doesn't steal food and can resist chasing wildlife or other temptations.
Public Confidence
You can take your dog anywhere - cafés, shops, parks - without embarrassment or stress. They're the well-behaved dog everyone admired.
Lifelong Reliability
Training that sticks. We teach you how to maintain obedience for life, not just 6 weeks. Your dog's good behaviour becomes permanent.

Common Struggles Solved
Questions we hear every day from frustrated owners
"Why doesn't my dog come when called?"
Your dog has learned that staying away is more rewarding than coming back. Every time they ignore recall and continue playing, sniffing or exploring, they're reinforced for not listening. We teach you how to make recall THE most rewarding thing in your dog's world.
"My dog pulls so badly on the lead"
Dogs pull because it works - they get where they want to go faster. You've inadvertently taught them that pulling is the way to move forward. We'll show you how to stop rewarding pulling and make loose-lead walking the only way they make progress.
"Commands work at home but not outside"
This is called a generalisation problem - dogs don't automatically understand that 'sit' in the living room means the same as 'sit' at the park. We train commands in progressively more distracting environments so your dog learns obedience works everywhere. Your dog isn't being stubborn outside - they genuinely think home commands don't apply in public.
"They only listen when I have treats"
If you always use treats, your dog learns to wait for the bribe. We use treats to teach new behaviours, then fade them out using a variable reinforcement schedule. Eventually, treats become occasional surprises, and real-life rewards maintain behaviour. Treats are for teaching, not bribing - we'll show you the difference.
"My dog knows what I want but chooses to ignore me"
If something else is more rewarding than listening to you, your dog will choose that every time. This is the Premack Principle in action - higher-value activities always win. We help you become the most rewarding option in your dog's world. Your dog isn't defiant - they're just making the most rewarding choice available to them.
