The problems that bring families to us

Bite incident

Your dog bit someone — a visitor, a child, another dog. The vet bill alone could run $2,000 to $5,000. The legal exposure is worse. This needs professional intervention now.

Relationship woes

Your partner has had enough. The dog is causing arguments, stress, and tension in the household. Something has to change before someone issues an ultimatum.

The cost of waiting

Every week without training is another week of reinforced bad behaviour. The longer you wait, the harder and more expensive it gets to fix.

Strata warning

Your dog’s barking triggered a formal complaint. The committee wants a plan in writing. Without one, you’re looking at fines or being asked to rehome.

Tails are wagging,

We're bragging

Marianne has been so wonderful with my incredibly complex dog, an experienced trainer. In a short space of time she’s improved in leaps and bounds. It’s been a positive experience, invaluable. Malmo and I are very thankful, her anxiety has improved, and she’s a lot of fun to be around - recall and playtime is much more fun!

Danielle & Malmo

We have just finished our puppy training course with Marianne and I couldn’t recommend it more! We wanted to start early with our new puppy in order to avoid future issues and with Marianne’s tips and tricks specific to our pup, I believe that we have definitely made the right choice. Our little girl Winnie has exceeded our expectations with how quick she has learnt everything and she has had so much fun doing so!

Nick & Winnie

As first time puppy owners, it was important to us that we didn’t start any bad habits. We chose the ‘at home’ option which I would highly recommend! One on one training meant we had the opportunity for both of our kids to be involved and ask as many questions as we needed! highly knowledgeable and professional - I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Marianne!
