Why Choose Private Dog Training Lessons?
Dog issues generally fall into two main categories: obedience and behavioural problems. While group classes work well for teaching basic obedience skills and preventing common issues, they are typically designed as broad, cost-effective programs. These classes cover general obedience training but often aren’t suited for addressing more complex behavioural issues.
Behavioural challenges, unlike obedience issues, are highly individualised. They often require the expertise of a certified behavioural trainer who can assess the dog’s unique needs and create a tailored behaviour modification plan. Private training sessions allow for this personalised attention, helping ensure that specific behavioural issues are effectively diagnosed and managed.
Private puppy training often focuses on house or toilet training, jumping up, mouthing/biting and barking. While these are perfectly normal behaviours, our dog trainer will have the solutions for you.


Understanding Behavioural Issues in Dogs
Behavioural issues in dogs can be challenging. Below are some common behavioural concerns, though this list is not exhaustive:
• Aggression
• Reactivity to Other
• Dogs/People
• Separation Anxiety
• Barking
• Leash Aggression
• Severe Lead Pulling
• Hyperactivity
• Fears and Phobias
• Resource Guarding
• Shyness or Under-Socialisation
• Adult House Soiling
• Escaping
• Submissive Urination
• Handling Issues
The Canine Classroom believes that training should be enjoyable for both you and your dog. We rely on 4 quadrant training methods, an approach grounded in proven behavioural learning theory. With these techniques, your dog will learn in a supportive environment.
Our one-on-one service will focus on any dog behaviour that isn’t working for you, your pet and your family. Dog behaviour training needs dedication and focus, and with our support, we can take the stress out of training your pup.

Michelle Green24/06/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cant recommend Nicole from The Canine Classroom enough. From the very first session , it was clear she truly understood dogs and how to bring the best out of them. Bruno was struggling with leash pulling and basic obedience, and after our walk and train package we saw a complete transformation. Thanks to Nicole's patient approach Bruno is now more focused and walking so much better on the lead. If you are looking for a trainer who truly cares and delivers results Nicole is the trainer for you. Veronica Karlgren12/06/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I first discovered The Canine Classroom six years ago when I was training my first dog, and when I brought home my second, there was no question that I’d return. This time, unforeseen circumstances meant I had to return to work earlier than planned, so I started using their "Walk and Train" services. It’s been an absolute game changer. Not only do they take my puppy on walks, but they also support her training while I’m at work, which has been incredibly helpful. From the very beginning, their professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care for my pup have been truly outstanding. Lauren, Tegan, and Renee have all taken the time to answer my questions thoroughly and provided practical advice I can use at home. Thanks to their support, I feel much more confident and connected with my dog. I highly recommend The Canine Classroom to anyone looking for dedicated, compassionate, and skilled dog trainers! Robinanne Lavelle23/03/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ollie - Giant Schnauzer Many thanks Ryan. The home lesson was really helpful. Some of the lesson helped me to remember earlier strategies we had learned during the classes and other ideas you shared have really helped for the specific issue we have at home e.g. now being near a fairly busy road and undoing unwanted behaviours that others have helped create. Moving to new residence having your help and support has been invaluable. By the way, Ollie passed his Service Dog 2 yearly assessment - he even stayed without barking (he did whine) without the lead, in the shopping aisle, whilst I disappeared out of view before returning. Everything else on the 15 point test was a piece of cake for him. We look forward to continuing training with Ollie on Sundays with you once term 2 begins. Tammy Kuskopf20/03/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This has been an amazing experience from the start. We initially were skeptical of dog training programs because some want you to keep coming back for their business regardless of the dogs progress. However after going to a free intro session which was extremely comprehensive of about 2 hrs we were absolutely onboard with The Canine Classroom. Ryan is the guy that trains dog trainers so he knows his stuff. The membership design is so convenient - like a gym membership you can just turn up to any training session in your membership! We have 2 husky puppies that are 3 months old and am feeling so confident with the help of the team at Canine Classroom. Kaine Sherwood16/02/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently joined The Canine Classroom and opted for the Silver Membership, which included an in-home private lesson. Tegan visited our home and met with my wife, me, and our puppy, Xena. The experience was fantastic; Tegan provided us with extremely valuable insights tailored to what she observed and what we demonstrated during the session. Our ongoing training sessions every Sunday are something we eagerly look forward to. They've been invaluable in helping us continue Xena's training throughout the week. Highly recommend The Canine Classroom for anyone looking to train their dog effectively and enjoyably! Brianna Barry11/02/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Love both the group and 1:1 classes. Couldn't recommend a better way to get your pup started with obedience, and keeping up good dog manners for life.
