Behavioural Issues
Why is dog training so important?
Mastering essential dog training skills is the key to laying a solid foundation and preparing your dog for a lifetime of good behavior and companionship. One of the best ways to build a healthier relationship with your dog is to understand how your dog learns and use these principles to make learning rewarding and successful.
At Melbourne Dog Trainers, we take a comprehensive approach to training so you can learn the right way to socialise and condition your dog to be well behaved and well mannered. Here are some of the most common behavioural issues you may be experiencing that we can help you with.

The MDT difference
At Melbourne Dog Trainers, we look at the entire picture, including age, breed, temperament, physiology, diet, environment and ability.
We then develop and implement a plan that addresses the underlying cause of an issue rather than the consequential result. Once we’ve identified the cause, we take a two-pronged approach to solving the issue
To form a strong dog-owner relationship and create a long-term change in behaviour, it’s important to build a dog’s trust and confidence. The most effective way to do this is through the science-based approach of reinforcement, rewards and the appropriate withholding of rewards.
