Start Here

Find the right starting point for you and your dog.

Whether you need behaviour help, training guidance, or a place to practise with your dog, there is a clear way to begin.

Quick Find:

Every dog owner arrives here with a slightly different situation.

Some people are bringing home a new puppy. Others are trying to solve behaviour problems that have slowly built over time. Some are living with high-energy working breeds that need more than basic training. Others simply want a clearer plan.

The Holistic Dog Method offers a few simple ways to begin.

Choose the option below that best fits your situation.

Working From Home

Personal help with your dog

Work one-on-one with a trainer to understand your dog’s behaviour and build a clear training plan.

First sessions are conducted online.

Not sure what you need?

If you want to talk things through first, a short discovery call can help point you in the right direction.

I live locally

Join practical training sessions and community activities around the Heyfield and Gippsland area.

Online Behaviour and Lifestyle Assessment

This is the best starting point if you want personalised guidance.

During the consultation we look at your dog’s behaviour, routine, environment, and training history. From there you receive clear advice and a practical plan for moving forward.

This option suits owners dealing with behaviour problems, training challenges, or simply wanting clearer guidance.

Free Discovery Call

If you are unsure which option is right for you, a short discovery call is a simple place to begin.

We can briefly discuss your dog and your situation and help you decide what the next step should be.

Here are the main options currently available.

Community Dog Walk

A relaxed, slower-paced group walk designed for local dog owners who want a supportive environment to socialise and learn.

I Want to Learn Online

If you prefer to work through training at your own pace, structured online courses provide clear guidance that you can apply during everyday life with your dog.

Courses cover common behaviour challenges, working-breed needs, and practical training skills.

Still unsure where to begin?

If you would like help deciding the best place to start, a discovery call is a simple first step.

The aim is not to create a perfectly trained dog.

The aim is to help you build a dog that is calm, capable, and easy to live with.

With clear guidance and consistent practice, small changes often lead to the biggest improvements.
