Most owners who call us have tried everything they can find online. There is nothing wrong with you and nothing wrong with your dog.
Behaviour problems break the relationship between a dog and their family. Left alone they end in surrender, and sometimes in euthanasia. We step in earlier with training, structure, education and support that does not stop when the session does.
No judgement. Just results.
Read the missionOur flagship program. One day a week your dog spends the day with our trainers. You get report cards, video of your own dog training, in-person coaching and online support in between.
Fifteen minutes on the phone. You tell us what is happening at home and we tell you honestly whether we can help.
You drop your dog at the academy and leave the hard part to us. We train, socialise and build the skills, then you pick up a tired, worked dog.
Multiple live sessions every week, plus online courses you can work through at your own pace. Whatever comes up between academy days, someone is there.
The calm, reliable dog you pictured when you got them. At home, on the lead and everywhere you take them.
Every path starts with a call, so we can point you at the right one.
One day a week with our trainers, with report cards, videos and support between days.
Foundations in the first sixteen weeks, with the whole family involved.
For dogs six months to two years, when everything you taught them as a puppy suddenly stops working.
The same weekly structure, aimed at the standard an assistance dog has to meet.
Unnecessary Behavioural Euthanasia takes dogs who could have been helped. Every dog through the academy, every owner we coach and every question we answer online moves the number.
The academy day that carries the rest of the week.
Shellharbour and Wollongong, plus online support worldwide.
Dash is four weeks into the academy and still training. This is where he is right now, not a finished story.
Four weeks in
Only two weeks in and we are seeing the results. Going to the vets our dog is reactive and can't be touched. To have his vaccinations they wanted him to be medicated so he would be less reactive. The team at Walkys have worked with our dog to help with this and he successfully had a full visit at the vets, not medicated, and had his vaccinations. At home he's calmer and even walks are getting easier.
After trying 2 other training people that made my whole family anxious, Nathan and the trainers have been amazing with Brooke. Being a high energy dog, Brooke is now calm, has door manners, rides well in the car, crate trained, she walks great on the lead and she plays calmly with other dogs.
