We Love Our Dogs and What We Do!
Ryan and his team run a well established dog rehabilitation center, with over 70, 5 star reviews and hundreds of happy dog owners each year. We have fine tuned effective methods to train a reliable dog that is not only a good family member, but well behaved part of the social world. The methods we use consist of exercise, a good house management system, correct socializing with people, other dogs and new environments, we then pair this with great obedience both on and off lead.
DAYCARE
Our outdoor facility it a great place for your dog to gain a balance of fun, learning and obedience. We are situated on a 4 acre block, with secure 7 foot fencing surrounding the property. With several areas to work dogs in and around packs.
BOARD & TRAIN
If you are wanting nothing but the best for your dog this is the package for you. We will fully on, and off leash train your dog for you. Major behavioral issues no problem. We specialize in a socializing and rehabilitation dogs, some dogs need more serious training, there is no case too big for us here at Good Dog Training.
KENNELS
Our kennels are different to any other. We keep our numbers low so we can keep our standards high. All of our kennel dogs join our day care packs so rest assured they are happy, exercised out in the field playing and splashing in the pond.
TRAINING & CLASSES
We will tailor fit a personalized plan for you and your dog to make sure you achieve the goals you want, we do not have one approach to training as it is very dependent on the person's capabilities and beliefs, coupled with their type of dog.
We believe any dog can be trained, it just takes time, patience and consistency.
Calling Good Dog Training was the best call I ever made
called Good Dog Training after seeking help with other trainers who I felt didn't really listen or take the time to understand our issues - they bundled us up into a box which didn't address the issues we were having. Our rescue pup began to grow into a strong, dominant dog and I was unable to control when walking out in public - certainly not even contemplate letting off leash. Others immediately compartmentalized his issues as dog on dog aggression. Ryan was calm, supportive and understanding of our situation and provided some honest advice, practical tips and insight into the reasons behind some of the behaviors we were seeing. He truly has an amazing way with animals (and people).
What People Say
First walk after one session with Ryan. Waking happily together in collars and leads, ignoring the barking dogs, the cars and the jogger who ran right past! Thank you so much, much happier dogs and much much happier owner!
Happy dogs
Ryan was great and a huge help to me and Dexter I was starting to not want to walk him because of the pulling and issues whenever another dog came around the corner. He took me through what to do in these situations and explained everything so well. He has been there every step of the way keeping in touch. Our walks are now the best part of my day I highly recommend Good Dog Training to anyone that could do with some guidance with training your dog.
Great Service!
Highly Highly rate Good Dog Training. Ryan and Amber really work well together at providing excellent dog training and all round doggie services. Ryan’s attitude with the dogs, firm but fear, worked a treat with my hunterways who were trying to rule the roost far too much. If you are lucky enough to get your dog in for training with Ryan you won’t regret it
Happy owners
I had a 1:1 with Ryan and my rescue pup Seamus last week. Before training I'd try to walk him and we'd last 20 minutes before I'd lost all circulation in my hands from the constant pulling (he'd walk some of it bouncing on his hind legs) and it was just too stressful especially if we came across another dog (too excited and not knowing what the other dog was like). I'm our first walk after training Seamus walked just behind me the whole time, slack lead, sat at the roadside on command before crossing and we even met people and dogs on our walk and he say and behaved the whole time. I was the problem, not my boy and now we can enjoy our walks. Plus after 40min he completely passes out and is happy. Should have done this AGES ago. Thanks Ryan!
