Transform Your Dog's Behaviour

We're based in Avalon Beach and proudly service Sydney's Northern Beaches. We're a mobile training service, so we come to you — whether that's at home, at the park, or wherever your dog feels most comfortable.

Absolutely — yes, yes, and yes! We work with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments, including those with reactivity, fear, or aggression issues. Every dog deserves clear communication and fair training, and we're here to help make that happen.

Yes. Our initial consultation helps us get to know you and your dog — their personality, routines, and challenges. This ensures we design a training plan that's realistic, effective, and suited to your goals.

We believe in training the dog in front of us — every dog is different, so there's no one-size-fits-all approach. We use balanced, science-based methods that focus on clear communication, fairness, and building trust between you and your dog.

You bet! Older dogs can absolutely learn new behaviours. It might take a little more patience since they've had longer to practise their habits, but with consistency and the right guidance, change is totally possible.

Honestly… probably both! Training works best when the whole team is on the same page. We'll coach you just as much as your dog so you both have the tools and confidence to succeed long after our sessions are done.

We totally get it — that can be really frustrating. Every trainer has their own style, and sometimes it just doesn't click. At K9PT, we take the time to understand your dog, your goals, and your lifestyle before jumping into training. Our programs are hands-on, practical, and fully supported — with guidance between sessions, group chats, and check-ins to keep you on track. We focus on real-world results and building lasting change, not just quick fixes.

Great question — and one we hear a lot! Dog training isn't just about the time spent in your session; it's about the planning, follow-up, and ongoing support that happens behind the scenes. At K9PT, you're not just paying for an hour of training — you're investing in years of experience, education, and proven results. Each program is custom-built for your dog, and we're with you every step of the way — from consults and follow-ups to group chats and accountability. Our goal is to give you the skills and confidence to enjoy a well-behaved dog for life — and that's worth every minute (and dollar!) of the process.

It really depends on your dog and your goals. Some behaviours can start improving within a few sessions, while others — especially those that are deeply learned — take more time and consistency. We'll always be honest about what to expect and give you clear steps to follow between sessions. Think of it as teamwork — the more you practise and stay consistent, the faster you'll see results!
