You are not alone! In Australia, a staggering number of dogs are surrendered each year due to behavioral problems. It is estimated that around 20% of all dogs are surrendered to pounds and animal shelters and around 80% of these dogs are euthanased. It doesn't have to be this way! The vast majority of dog problems can be corrected. Most dogs are simply in need of proper leadership and communication with their owners. At Urban Dog Training, we can teach you how to achieve this in an enjoyable and motivational way. We can help! Urban Dog Training offers Private Tuition, Group Classes or a combination of both to help you and your dog live together in harmony. Our methods are dog friendly, people friendly, easy to apply and based on the latest scientific research.

FAQs
Can I observe a class before deciding to enroll my dog in your classes?
Absolutely! We want you to feel confident with your decision to train with Urban Dog Training. You are welcome to come along and observe any of our classes. Please do not bring your dog along though. Sometimes the presence of another dog can be unsettling to the dogs already in class.
What style of training do you use?
At Urban Dog Training we use Positive Reinforcement Training, also called Reward Based Training. Good Dog Treats This training style is based on the sound scientific principles of animal learning and operant conditioning. We focus on rewarding your dog for desired behaviour. We never use harsh punishment, fear or intimidation to elicit behaviour from your dog because it is completely unnecessary.
This is my child’s dog, can he handle the dog in class?
For safety reasons children under 16 years of age cannot be the primary handler in classes. However we will include your child in activities.
How do I register for classes?

Can I bring my family to class also?
We encourage you to bring along the entire family, our courses are designed to incorporate children also. For safety reasons, if bringing along children under 7 years old please bring another adult (over 16 years old) along to supervise the child.
How many dogs are in each class?
We have a maximum of 8 dogs per class. This allows us to teach effectively and allow all participants some one on one time during the class. Keeping class sizes small creates a less stressful environment for the dogs also.
Do you offer Private Training?
Yes we do. Some dogs will not cope in a group class during the early stages of training for these dogs we offer private in-home lessons. Sometimes people are unable to attend classes due to work or social commitments and it suits them to have private lessons. Often people chose to have private lessons to accelerate learning.
I have two dogs, can they both attend classes at the same time?
Yes, provided there are two adult (16 years and over) handlers. If the dogs are very closely bonded we often separate them in class so that they can focus on their handler rather than each other.
