Question 4

Why should a customer hire you over another service provider?

Accepted Answer

At Positive K9, we are firm believers in early socialisation and obedience training to teach essential life skills as well as aiding to prevent minor behaviour problems. Unfortunately when it comes to established behaviour problems, although well intentioned, there can be a lack of knowledge when seeking assistance with these  issues from a general obedience training club. This results in you seeking the assistance of a Behaviourist who has a great understanding of behaviour but can be lacking in the hands on skills that are needed  .  There currently appears to be a big gap between these two professions. We believe separating these skills is counter-productive as they are both needed to provide effective training and behaviour modification. Positive K9 training will bridge the gap between the two professions to provide you with the outcome needed from the basics such as sit and down through to established behavioural issues including aggression and separation anxiety.

Question 10

What experience, skills, qualifications or training do you have to make you the right person for the job?

Accepted Answer

I have received comprehensive education in canine behaviour and training and regularly attend industry seminars to further develop my understanding of K9 behaviour.  My formal accreditation is though the NDTF, with a Certificate 3 in Dog training and behaviour. When it comes to dog training and behaviour modification I believe ‘brains are like an umbrellas, as they need to be open to work’. I have a balanced approach when it comes to working with dogs. As long as I can remember, I could be found with a dog and lead in hand. I have had a lifelong interest in the way dogs act, and have constantly wanted to bring the best out of every pet. Although knowing and understanding theory is needed and has given me a great edge, there is no replacement for hands on learning and making mistakes which you can admit to and grow from. I have been fortunate in working with and learning from many industry leaders whom gained greater knowledge. I have also formed many great working relationships with Vets, Breeders, pet shops and other great trainers.
