Our training philosophy
At 96dogs, our goal is simple: to make training, behavioural guidance and communication between you and your animal clear, practical and achievable.
Simple, effective and lasting change
We focus on finding the simplest and most effective method for each animal and situation. Often, noticeable changes can happen within just a few days—but every animal is different, and some require more time, repetition and patience.
Training doesn't need to consume your life. We will show you practical methods that fit naturally into everyday living, helping you understand how to guide your animal with trust, respect, clear boundaries and consistency.
Beyond commands, building connection
Our role isn't simply to teach your dog commands. It's to teach you how to communicate with your animal. The goal is to build an animal, a relationship and a lifestyle that work together—long after the training session is over.
We work with many different animals of different shapes, sizes, attitudes and levels of aggression. We take pride in being able to work with the most challenging cases and do not believe in putting a dog down because of learned behaviour. There's often a reason why your animal is behaving the way it does.
No dog turned away
Our goal is to find what that cause is, what is driving the issue or behaviour, and then to find a method of correctional guidance that works best for your animal. We then teach you how to communicate and work with your animal. At 96dogs, we don't turn any dog away.
We will help your animal understand what is expected from them in different situations to make sure they know what they are being asked. You will confidently teach and guide your animal.
"At the end of our time together, you will be a calm, confident leader for not only you and your animal, but family and friends."
