Albany has grown faster than almost anywhere on the Shore, and that brings its own training challenges. New townhouses, small sections, the mall, the bus station and the motorway are all packed in together, so Albany dogs have to cope with a busy, modern environment from day one. I train them to handle it calmly instead of being overwhelmed by it.
A lot of the dogs I work with in Albany come from new subdivisions with close neighbours and shared driveways. That means the everyday issues here are fence-line barking, pulling past the constant comings and goings and settling in a smaller space. I focus on exactly those real world manners, not just lounge-room obedience.
I come to your Albany home first so your dog learns where they live, then we take the training out to Albany Lakes and the local reserves and walkways so your dog is reliable in the genuinely busy version of the suburb.
