  • YAY! We are in Control!  So excited, (little dance) (and nervous) and can't tell you how much we are enjoying the training. Your team are absolutely awesome! So knowledgeable, and nothing is ever too much trouble. I just have to get Buddy's training collar out, and he runs to the car. Loving the classes, and loving the bond thats growing between Buddy and I. It's the most indescribable feeling. Last Saturday at training, I just wanted to give him the whole bag instead of just one treat!

  • "When my partner and I got together one of our greatest challenges was blending our “families”. Tam had a 6yr old female Golden Retriever (Kyah) and I had a 5yr old red female cattle dog (Kia) and a 5yr old female yellow labrador (Mana). We were living in a standard residential block in Coolum, both worked full time and Kyah had a history of barking. We had all done dog training to a greater or lesser degree. Our challenge wasn’t about obedience, but about blending a family and being able to all be together in our home in Coolum.
    I researched for an appropriate trainer and after a phone call with Dave knew he was our man! He is passionate about what he does and exudes confidence. After an assessment we all decided personal training sessions was our best option – to address OUR specific issues. The sessions had clear objectives, were never rushed, at our home, at a time suitable to us and were actually great fun! A couple years later we had to put Kyah down due to cancer, and Tam needed her own pup. First call was not to a breeder, but to our dog advisor Dave. He came over on a Friday afternoon and chatted about the best way to bring in a new pup. We discussed what sex we should get, what age we should bring the new pup home, discussed vaccinations and when to start training with the canine classroom. It was a very worthwhile conversation/consultation. Mike started at 7 weeks old and attended both Coolum and Kawana for the first 2 years. It was great to be able to maximize our membership and go twice a week. Bottom line Canine Classroom encourages the development of great community dogs, not obedience champions that can heel within an arena, but dogs that cope with storms and whipper snippers. Dogs that come when called at Stumer Creek and dogs that you are proud to walk down the street. We are very grateful to Dave and his team, and constantly recommend people to join up! You can’t afford not to!" "

  • "A big thanks to Dave and the team for the amazing session on Friday. I was very amazed about the changes in Bentley's behaviour in just two sessions. Highly recommend this training approach and looking forward to what we can achieve in our third lesson in a couple weeks time "

  • "Goodo Dav Just saw your videos regarding BARF . That information plus what you advised today at Mt Gravatt - makes a lot of sense. I will start putting this into practice. Really enjoying the classes - Fergus is coming along in leaps and bounds, (literally) and he is really rising to the challenges he gets set. Thanks to all your staff. Cheers "

  • "Just wanted to say that I really enjoyed our first night at Coolum on Monday, it was all I had hoped for. The relaxed but motivational atmosphere created a very good learning environment for both handlers and dogs, the email notes prior to class allowed for better understanding of the principles talked about in class. I also liked the genuine emphasis on building on a pup's social confidence and the follow through from our instructor was great. Thanks again I have attached a pick showing what out dogs think of our crates. kind regards.

  • Dear David, Maggie and Bec,
    Sooo proud of the boys, but most of all: thank you all so much for getting them (and us!) to this level.
    It has been an amazing and challenging journey; your support and encouragements made it all worthwhile and enjoyable!

    We remember waiting to attend the first puppy class and watching the Control level dogs Drop and Stay, while their owners walked away from them and we were amazed, thinking “how awesome, we will never be able to do that with ours”.......oh yee of little faith, we ARE now doing that with our boys!!

    We just wished you were on the Sunshine Coast when we had our other 2, less sociable pooches before we had Bruno and Boris. They were great with humans, but not as great with other dogs.

    Looking forward to the next stage of the boys’ journey and hoping they will be able to go to your classes and meet their week-end friends at it for a long time to come."
    Regards,

  • Just wanted to say that after only 2 lessons, Zeus, is now walking on a flat collar. No haltie or choke chain when just out for a social walk. Zeus seems to have sussed out "Pop Pop Pop" - I still seem to be saying it out loud to myself. And I have since introduced the "Yes" mark word. (It was so brilliantly explained by Bec) I also did the vacuuming for the first time in 2 years without Zeus trying to eat the attachment, or chasing me hysterically around the room! Just amazing guys. So excited about the months ahead! Just like all owners, I have no doubt my dog is super smart and is borderline genius. Its just me that needs the serious training!! See you Saturday!

  • Dolly is no ordinary dog!  But is learning and getting better all the time. She has been noticeably calmer since her week at "boot camp" (that's what we like to call it).  Thank you for all the advice, help and encouragment, we would have really struggled without it.

  • Thank you for the fun christmas party for the pups this morning. Bonnie & I were thrilled to win the best dressed as she is so special to me. The difference in her in the short time I have been attending classes is amazing. She used to rule the roost (which was my fault) but with perserverence & consistency she is now starting to realize I'm the leader. Once again thank you all for your dedication.

  • Same dog, different dog! Tomorrow a year ago Coco and I started on our Canine Classroom adventure. 1 week in Fast Track boarding (that came as a bit of a surprise to my crazy 2yr old Cocker Spaniel x Jack Russell), training most weekends a few walk and trains and 4 weeks boarding at Xmas. I can’t believe how far she’s come and I have learnt a lot too. Thank-you all Canine Classroom especially Erin, Rosie, Ryan and Dave, and previously Julia and Jack, who have all been fantastic teachers.
