In-person, Gippsland

A proper look at what's actually going on with your dog, before we decide what to do about it.

An In-person Behaviour Assessment for kelpies, heelers, and other high drive dogs, run at your place, in the environment where the behaviour actually happens.

Right for your dog if:

​

  • You've got a kelpie, heeler, or another working or high drive breed who isn't settling, and generic advice hasn't touched it.

  • You're dealing with reactivity, aggression, or anxiety and want to understand what's actually driving it before trying to fix the behaviour on top.

  • You've tried obedience training and it hasn't reached whatever's really going on underneath.

  • You want an honest, specific plan for your dog rather than a course everyone gets handed.

What happens next

STEP 1

You fill in a short form:

A few minutes, honest answers. It tells me what's going on before we ever speak, so the conversation starts in the right place.

STEP 2

I get in touch:

Most people go straight to booking. If anything in your answers needs a quick chat first, I'll ring you, no charge, no pressure.

STEP 3

We do the assessment:

Two hours, either at your place or at the Heyfield RV Park Oval, watching your dog in a real environment rather than a clinic room that tells us nothing.

STEP 4

You get a plan:

Specific to your dog, in plain language, with a clear recommendation for what happens next, whether that's follow-up sessions, a package, or something else entirely.

If I'm not the right fit

I'll tell you plainly if that's the case.

Not every dog needs what I offer, and not every situation is one I'm the best person to help with. If that's true for you, I'll say so, and point you toward someone better placed to help. You won't be left without an answer.

  • Your choice of in-home, or the Heyfield RV Park Oval. In-person assessments run across Gippsland, including Heyfield, Sale, Maffra, and Traralgon. If you're further out, get in touch and we'll work out if it's manageable.

  • Two hours, either way.

  • $300 for an in-home assessment, or $240 at the Heyfield RV Park Oval.

  • Everyone in the household who lives with the dog day to day, if you can manage it.
