Training for Puppies, Dogs, and Owners!

Dog training is essential to start early and get right, to set your dog up for a happy, fulfilling and enjoyable life. Better behaved dogs make for more comfortable dogs and more satisfied owners! It is much easier to teach good habits than to correct bad ones. At Elite Canine Training & Behaviour, we have created a comprehensive set of training services that take your dog from its early puppy stages through to advanced obedience foundations.

Skills You Can Learn

An often overlooked aspect of dog training is the teaching of skills that owners themselves need. For the best results, owners must learn core skills like recognising undesirable behaviour, identifying proper responses, and the importance of appropriate motivation and ongoing training and activity at home.

Learn how to recognise concerning dog behaviour.
Learn the importance of proper motiviation for your dog.
Learn the importance of continuing training at home.

Skills Your Dog Can Learn

The skills we teach your dog throughout our programs will ensure a happy life for you and them. We also show you the proper techniques so you can continue the training. Every dog learns at a different pace, and it also depends on how consistent you are in your training in terms of motiviation, rewards and positive reinforcement.
