Dog Aggression, Reactivity & Behavioural Packages
At Brisbane Canine Coaching, I specialise in working with dogs displaying aggression, reactivity, and complex behavioural challenges. Whether your dog struggles with lunging, barking, fear-based responses, or poor impulse control, training is approached through structured assessment, clear communication, and practical behaviour modification strategies.
The goal is not suppression or quick fixes, but the development of calm, predictable behaviour and confident, capable handlers. Every program is tailored to the individual dog, their environment, and the underlying causes driving the behaviour.
Support areas include:
Reactivity Training
Teaching dogs to remain composed and responsive around other dogs, people, and environmental triggers.
Aggression Management
Addressing fear-based, territorial, and resource-guarding behaviours with safety, stability, and long-term outcomes as the priority.
Impulse Control & Obedience Under Pressure
Building reliable responses in situations where arousal and stress are elevated.
Structured Behaviour Modification Programs
Individualised plans designed to reshape unwanted behaviours through consistent, ethical training.
With extensive experience working with complex behaviour cases, I provide clear guidance and structured support to help owners regain confidence, control, and trust in their dog.
All behaviour and aggression cases require an Initial Consultation prior to selecting or commencing any training program. This ensures an accurate assessment of the dog, clear goal setting, and the development of a training plan appropriate to the level of risk and complexity involved.

Dog Obedience & Engagement Packages
At Brisbane Canine Coaching, obedience training is built around clarity, engagement, and reliability in real-world conditions. These programs are designed to develop well-mannered, responsive dogs while equipping owners with the skills and understanding needed to maintain consistent behaviour long term.
Whether you are establishing foundational obedience or refining advanced skills, training is structured, progressive, and tailored to the individual dog and household environment.
Training areas include:
Foundational Obedience
Teaching core skills such as sit, stay, down, recall, and appropriate leash manners to establish clear communication and control.
Advanced Obedience
Development of off-leash reliability, distance control, and more complex obedience behaviours.
Loose Leash Walking & Reliable Recall
Practical solutions to improve walk manners and off-leash responsiveness in everyday environments.
Engagement & Focus Training
Strengthening the dog–handler relationship to improve attention, responsiveness, and overall training success.
With over a decade of experience working with dogs of all breeds, ages, and skill levels, training is focused on practical outcomes that hold up outside of structured sessions. Programs are customised to suit both new dogs and those requiring refinement, ensuring progress is realistic, measurable, and sustainable.
All obedience programs require an Initial Consultation prior to selection or commencement. This allows for a thorough assessment of the dog, clear goal setting, and the development of a training plan that best suits the dog’s needs and the owner’s expectations.

At Brisbane Canine Coaching, Puppy Early Learning and Development programs are designed to build confident, resilient, and well-mannered dogs from the very beginning. The early months of a dog’s life are critical, shaping behaviour, emotional stability, and learning capacity well into adulthood. Training during this period focuses on clear communication, healthy exposure, and strong foundational habits.
Programs are structured to support both the puppy and the owner, ensuring learning is age-appropriate, positive, and consistent.
Program focus areas include:
Early Obedience Foundations
Introduction to essential skills such as sit, stay, recall, and loose leash walking in a developmentally appropriate manner.
Socialisation & Confidence Development
Structured exposure to people, dogs, sounds, surfaces, and environments to build confidence without overwhelming the puppy.
Crate Training & Toilet Training
Establishing reliable routines and boundaries to support calm behaviour and good household habits.
Handling & Veterinary Preparation
Teaching puppies to comfortably accept handling, grooming, and routine veterinary procedures.
Early Problem Prevention
Addressing common issues such as nipping, jumping, chewing, and early separation-related behaviours before they become ingrained habits.
With extensive experience raising and training puppies for both pet and working roles, training is delivered in a structured, engaging manner that supports healthy development while setting clear expectations. The focus is on building a foundation that carries through adolescence and into adulthood.
All Puppy Early Learning and Development programs require an Initial Consultation prior to selection or commencement. This allows for assessment of the puppy’s temperament, developmental stage, and learning style, ensuring the most appropriate training approach is applied.
