Better manners and behaviour in the home
For many owners, their dream of a dog enhancing their lives are dashed when their dog’s behaviour becomes a source of stress. If you've ever wished you could take your dog on a relaxing walk or to a café while feeling confident in their behaviour, I can give you hope. Through the use of positive and balanced methods, I'll show you how to create more engagement and trust in your dog wherever you take them.
Regardless of breed, or whether your dog is a puppy, a senior or a rescue dog, you can have the connection and relationship you've always wanted.
Dog Sense means understanding how your dog thinks. Using a holistic approach and following the science of how dogs communicate and what motivates them, I will help you get inside your dog's mind and create a stronger connection.
With a background in both canine and human psychology, I'm qualified to teach you how to create a trust-based relationship with your dog. I'm certified by the National Dog Trainers Federation of Australia, the only nationally and government recognized training program in the country for professional canine trainers. I'm knowledgeable in all training methodologies and don't follow a one-size-fits-all approach.
I want to help you build a balanced dog that is part of your family by structuring your relationship the right way. Through my dog training and behaviour modification programs you’ll learn:
You’ll help your dog become calmer, happier and a pleasant addition to your family.
Thank Dog I met Jacqui early in my journey with my fearful, dog-reactive, recourse guarding, leash puller staffi mix. It's been an ongoing, rewarding learning experience trying to understand and help my dog and I don't know where I'd be without Jacqu…
Jacqui has been incredible with our reactive Heeler! Our dog has learned so much and so have we
:-) Jacqui is extremely knowledgeable, patient, she really has our dog’s best interests at heart and always goes above and beyond. Thank you Jacqui!
Where would we be without Jacqui from Dog Sense - an absolute gem. Started as a client in 2018 and Barossa (our blue heeler) is a different dog now. We are so fortunate to have Jacqui in our lives in so many ways. From week long board and train stays…
My dog couldn't walk even on the opposite side of the road to other dogs but now he's completely different and instead of dreading our walks and being embarrassed I actually get compliments on how well trained he is
My boy Barney had 3 sessions with Jacqui over a week period concentrating on engagement, manners, place training & learning how to control & calm his hyperactive behaviour.
He has improved significantly from these sessions, & is much more…
