We help you and your dog find clarity, structure, and calm through fair, balanced training that actually works in real life — even when things feel messy.

Formerly known as Whispering Peaks Dog Training

No judgement. No pressure. Just a clear place to begin.

Calm, practical training for overwhelmed dog owners and dogs who feel too much.

You’re not failing your dog.

If your dog is reactive, anxious, intense, or unpredictable — and you’re exhausted from trying to do the “right” thing — you’re not alone.

Most dog owners aren’t lacking love or effort.

They’re lacking clear, practical guidance that works for their dog and their life.

That’s where we come in.

Real change happens when we work with the whole picture.

DOG

We teach dogs how to regulate, think, and respond — not just obey commands.

When dogs understand what’s expected, they relax.

Your calm matters.

We help you feel more confident, clear, and steady — so you’re not second-guessing every decision.

ENVIRONMENT

Training has to work where you actually live.

Walks, visitors, kids, other dogs, noise, space — all of it counts.

Here’s how we help — step by step.

Step 1

Start where you are.

No prerequisites. No fixing everything at once.

Step 2

Build clarity and structure.

Clear expectations, practical skills, fair boundaries.

Step 3

Create calm you can maintain.

Not quick fixes — steady progress that fits real life.

Ongoing support for real life with dogs.

WHAT CLIENTS SAY

"Before training with Kirsty, Shadow was full-on—pulling on walks, overexcited, and I felt totally out of my depth. But Kirsty changed everything. She gave me the confidence to lead, and helped us build trust and structure.
 
Now, Shadow is calm, focused, and loves her Walk & Train sessions. She’s got great recall, knows sit, stay, left, right, middle, and is learning ‘find it’ with my daughter Chloe—it’s become a family journey.
 
If you’re on the fence about working with Kirsty—just do it. She sees both the dog and the human, and the difference she’s made in our lives is incredible."

WHAT CLIENTS SAY

“I was really unsure if I was doing the right thing for Hetty when it came to training. I didn’t want to mess it up or make things worse.

Working with Kirsty gave me the guidance and confidence I needed—not just for Hetty, but for myself as well.

She has this amazing ability to read both dogs and people, which makes her training feel so personal and spot-on.

Everything was explained in a way that actually made sense, and she worked with us at our own pace.

It felt more like building a partnership than just following a set of rules.

I’m so glad we found her."

Carmel - Stratford, Vic.
