Tareik Hart16/09/2024 James is an amazing dog instructor and very passionate about what he does. It was great attending the training sessions with James. He is very knowledgeable and very patient. I would highly recommend James for anybody who needs help becoming a better dog owner and modifying their dogs’ behaviour. Karen How01/01/2024 Worth getting your families train Jim McHattie15/07/2023 We have had lots of dogs and none of them would have otherwise had a home. We didn't hesitate to take on a difficult dog whose owner had become homeless. Our deaf American Staffie turned out to be more of a challenge than we could manage. He pulled on leash, reacted to dogs, attacked visitors and had had a lot of intermittent reinforcement so he didn't respond to training. Finally when he bit a speech pathologist and the counsel became involved, we contacted canine revolution. The board and train made a big difference. The impossible became possible. The training we were given and the time we put in made the possible usual. We still have a dog who needs a lot of attention but there is no longer any doubt that he is ours for life. He brings us much joy. Thank you, Jim! Ann Nojin23/11/2022 Jimmy came to our house to train Jack. Jack has been a bad boy and bites his mum and scares the visitors. Jack loves Jimmy and is now starting to behave. 7 lessons to go! I would recommend Jimmy all day every day. He is so confident and knows what he is doing. He gives me confidence that Jack will become a good boy. Many thanks Jimmy Rachel Cassar18/05/2022 James' training has been invaluable. His knowlege & passion for what he does shows through in his results in working with what would typically be perceived as "difficult dogs". I have a large breed dog who I absolutely love (and admittedly spoil), but he has always had anxiety about being left alone, couldn't be left outside, became reactive to dogs after being attacked & as a result was very difficult to take for walks. I thought I was doing the right things to keep him feeling safe & happy, but there's lots I was doing & not doing to unknowingly contribute to his insecurities & behaviour. After the board & train, my dog came home 100% more secure, more balanced, more receptive & overall more happier dog!!! I loved seeing videos of his progress whilst he was there & socialising with other dogs again. James followed up with 1-on-1 lessons to help me with learning & continue my training to break my bad habits. James is very supportive & I know that I can contact any time for help & he'll do what he can to help. I highly recommend his board & train services!!!! Totally worth it. Shelby Flowers05/04/2022 Cannot recommend you enough, I tell everyone where to go for awesome dog training!! I sent my very naughty Newfoundland puppy away for the board and train program and have received back an awesome dog who listens! I can finally walk both my dogs together without any pulling or naughty behaviour and I’m enjoying our walks now. The 1:1 training afterwards is invaluable (not only for the dog but for us too). So glad I found you and I can’t thank you enough for all your help. Michelle Boyton06/02/2022 Great experience. Trainer really understood how to help us respond to our dog and get the best out of training. Our dog stopped pulling on the lead and loved the training sessions. Very professional. Sarah Graham27/09/2021 Came home to a calmer dog, who is now able to be near other dogs without going crazy. Took such great care of him while I was away. Simple and effective training tricks to take home and practice. James continues to check in and suggest different things to try at home as well. Can’t recommend James and the crew enough!! Leah Brown27/09/2021 I can not thank James enough for his help with my dog Millie. I used to never take my dogs on a walk because it would always result in me crying. Millie would pull and react to every person or dog that we would walk past, this made it very difficult to walk two dogs. Millie attended the Board and Stay program for 3 weeks. During her stay I got photo updates and videos of how Millie was progressing. I was able to message James and ask him how Millie was progressing. On Millie’s first day home we went on a walk and walked past 9 other dogs! She did not bark or pull towards one of them. Millie and I together still have training to go through together but I could not have gotten where we are without James!
How Board and Train Programs Help With Separation Anxiety
Is Board & Train Right for Dogs with Separation Anxiety? Absolutely!
We understand your concerns about separation anxiety, and we’re here to help! Our Board and Train program is an excellent solution for anxious pups. It offers your dog plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and a consistent routine, all while having fun learning alongside other friendly dogs. This environment can significantly ease their separation anxiety.
Why Our Program Works:
Anxiety often stems from a lack of structure and inconsistent training at home. Our nurturing environment provides the perfect setting for your dog to learn basic obedience, boosting their confidence and helping them feel secure about who’s at the end of the lead.
Comfort and Confidence:
One of the best parts of our Board & Train program is teaching dogs to feel comfortable being alone. After their training sessions, when they’re all tuckered out, we cozy them up in their own run or dog crate. This bit of tiredness helps soothe their nerves about being away from you. Before you know it, your dog will discover that being alone or in a kennel is not something to fear. They’ll start feeling more relaxed and at ease, especially with a tasty food reward each time they go in!
We’re Here to Help:
If you’re considering boarding your dog for training but are worried about their separation anxiety, let’s chat! Our dog trainers are available to discuss how we handle this concern. We’ve successfully helped countless anxious dogs, and we’d love to help yours too!

3 Week Board and Train
Is your dog high-energy, overly-aroused, or simply not listening? Our Board and Train program is designed for dogs that are friendly towards people and other dogs but need more advanced training to become well-behaved companions. If your dog has severe fear or anxiety issues, please contact us for a more tailored approach.
Why Choose Our Program?
Basic obedience is just the beginning. While a trained dog follows commands, a well-behaved dog makes good choices independently. Our program combines training and behavior modification to create a balanced, calm, and joyful companion who listens and behaves well in any situation.
Imagine a Dog That:
- Walks nicely on a leash without pulling, barking, or reacting to distractions
- Follows commands like Sit, Down, Recall, Place, Heel, Out, and crate manners
- No longer jumps on people, counters, or exhibits other bad behaviors
- Overcomes separation anxiety and crate issues
- Builds confidence and remains calm on command
- Enjoys off-leash excursions to cafes, beaches, and nature preserves
- Is a joy to have around every day, not just when conditions are perfect
Feeling Overwhelmed?
Balancing a dog, household, family, and job can be challenging. If you’re struggling to find time to train your dog or don’t know where to start, take heart. You can have a trained and well-behaved dog without it taking over your life. Our proven methods save you time and deliver results.
