Madame Ma's training courses can be booked after the Initial Client & Dog Consult is completed.

Courses are comprised of 1-to-1 sessions with the dog and trainer (owner optional), with a final 90 minute Client & Dog coaching session.

In the final coaching session our trainer coaches the owner to communicate with their dog to achieve the results from training sessions. Outcomes are demonstrated, techniques, key words and strategies are passed on.

Our training courses are carried out in a specially appointed space in our Doggie Daycare and Grooming premises. This means you can book a day of Daycare or Grooming on the same day if you like.

Our training courses are especially beneficial if you're dealing with any of the following problems:
1. Jumping Up: Does your dog tend to jump on people when they greet them? We can help you teach your dog appropriate greeting behaviors and eliminate jumping up.
2. Poor Manners: If your dog lacks basic manners like sitting politely, waiting, or greeting calmly, our trainers can guide you on how to establish good manners and reinforce positive behaviors.

3. Excessive Barking: Excessive barking can be frustrating and disruptive. Our trainers will assess the underlying reasons behind the barking and provide you with techniques to reduce and manage it effectively.

4. House Soiling: Is your dog struggling with house training? We'll help you establish a consistent routine and provide guidance on effective house training methods.

5. Poor Recall: If your dog doesn't come when called or struggles with recall commands, our trainers can work with you to improve their responsiveness and recall reliability.

6. Leash Pulling: Walking your dog should be an enjoyable experience for both of you. If your dog pulls on the leash, we'll teach you techniques to encourage loose-leash walking and improve their leash manners.

7. Won't Relax: Some dogs struggle with relaxation and may exhibit restlessness or anxiety. We'll help you create a calm and relaxed environment for your dog and provide strategies to encourage relaxation.

8. Chewing: Destructive chewing can be a common problem, especially in puppies. Our trainers will assist you in redirecting your dog's chewing behavior onto appropriate items and discourage destructive chewing.
