Werribee Training Courses
Train in comfort, focus, and calm
Training in Werribee takes place in a secure, fully fenced, undercover space, providing a calm and contained environment for you and your dog to learn together.
With a park just across the road, we also have the option to practise skills in real-world settings when appropriate.
Sessions are designed to be low-distraction and supportive, helping both you and your dog build confidence and clarity.
Private sessions are open to the whole household, so everyone can be involved in the training process.
From April, small group classes will also be available. These are limited to a maximum of three dogs and up to six people, allowing for individual support within a small, manageable group setting.
