Fun and Effective Dog Training and Coaching
At Active Dogs NZ, we are dedicated to helping you achieve real-world results with your dog, whether you have an energetic 8-week-old puppy, a rebellious adolescent, or a wise senior companion.
With over 20 years of experience in both pet dog training and competitive dog sports, I utilize Positive Reinforcement methods to coach. My approach focuses on games and choice-based learning, making training enjoyable, engaging, and effective.
Training That Fits Your Needs
We offer a range of options to suit every dog, handler and family:
🐾 Small Group Classes – Perfect for learning in a supportive, structured setting with like-minded guardians.
🐾 1-on-1 Private Coaching – Personalised sessions tailored to your specific goals, available at your home or at our fully fenced private training paddock. (Undercover in the Shed when wet)
🐾 Workshops & Specialty Training – Dive deeper into specific dog training topics or try something new with these 90-minute workshops. Each session focuses on practical skills such as Loose Lead Walking, Recalls, Scentwork, and various Dog Sports.
Step Into the World of Dog Sports!
If you're keen to take your training to the next level, we also offer fun introductions to dog sports, including:
✨ FUN-Agility – Build speed, confidence, and teamwork.
✨ Scentwork/Nosework – Tap into your dog’s incredible sense of smell.
✨ Trick Training – Strengthen your bond while having a blast.
✨ Rally O & Flygility & Hoopers – Enhance focus and communication. (Coming Soon!)
