Canine Evolution

Our mini spoodle Frankie did a one week stay and train where the Canine Evolution team, particularly Steph, spent their training time taking Frankie through general obedience including preparing for a new baby like walking with a stroller which was above and beyond what we asked for - such wonderful service! We noticed an immediate difference when we took her home after this, as have our friends and family so we are very very happy with the outcome. It was also very hard to be away from our fur baby for the week but the team were so good with giving us little updates along the way that kept us reassured that she was having a great time and enjoying her time there, even though we were missing her so much!Since then, we have continued her training on a regular basis as she has a weekly session with Trainer Lauren when Frankie is at daycare. Frankie just loves Lauren and you can see how much she loves the training sessions too in the photo and video updates that get sent through, and we can see how well she is responding to them through her behaviour as well.Couldn’t recommend the Canine Evolution team enough for all your doggy training needs. They not only get results but actually care about your dog and treat them with love which is very important to us :)

My very excited 2 year old Lab has learnt so much and is very well looked after by the Cainine Evolution team in Terrigal. Their information and communication is great and has allowed us continue her training at home and maintain consistency with training methods. I am impressed with the progress she has made in such a short time.

My girl is Luna and she is a beautiful German Shepard and has been attending Canine Evolution training for the whole entire 3 years of her life and she enjoys every bit of of it, the trainers are wonderful and my girl just absolutely loves them they are caring and have taught my girl to have such wonderful manners

These guys were great to deal with. Our Labrador Lilly Grace is so full of beans. They gave us great tips and tricks to help with this.On going training is the key to Miss Lilly and they will be giving her another round on our next holiday when Miss Lilly stays at the Pet Resort. It just makes sense and helps her along the way. Thank you Nick and Verity.

My Labrador pup spent a week here to learn some manners. They worked on his bitey behavior, how to walk properly on a lead, as well as basic commands like sit, stay, and wait. It’s obvious that the trainers adore the dogs, and are constantly praising them and rewarding them with treats. I also got my own training session with his trainer at the end of his stay so I could be consistent with commands at home. Whitby loved his stay here, and even though I missed him terribly he was so much easier when he got home. Highly recommended.

Thanks Nick for looking after Harley so well for us while we were away.Overall we can see a definite improvement in his ability to keep calmer by sitting longer and ignoring distractions. A few great examples so far have been we were able to do the lawns, including the blower, whilst Harley just sat next to me outside without reacting. The second been we live very close to several retirement villages and nursing homes and Harley has been sitting calmly if we come across one of the residents to wait for his pat. One of the older males even said to me yesterday “he has to be the most placid dog I have ever met, I just want to bundle him up and take him home”. Whoever would have thought someone would say that about crazy Harley!!!He had a great walk down the beach yesterday and his recall had definite improved.Thanks again so much.

We have seen an enormous improvement in the past 6 months for our Rottie girl, Freja, all thanks to the incredible trainers (shout out in particular to Steph, as well as Verity and Nick). Through the private lessons and a three week stay and train, we’ve seen Freja become much more confident in many areas, including socialising with other dogs and keeping focused when walking on a lead. We highly recommend the Canine Evolution team - Freja will definitely enjoy coming back for any refresher training! Briony & Jon

We've had great success with the trainers at Canine Evolution and our nervous rescue.Cricket is much more confident in all situations and they also helped us to become more confident handlers.We started with a 3 week stay and train and we now get regular top up sessions when our pup goes to daycare.We received videos of the training sessions with Cricket as well as as detailed notes so we could continue her training at home.Special shout out to Verity for all she has done to help us and Cricket. She has become one of Crickets most favourite humans.We highly recommend using canine evolution for any help you need with your pup.

The private training session i had with my 2yr old Cavoodle today was incredibly valuable. Nick was thorough, explained and demonstrated everything and then had me practice the skills too. He further developed a plan to target our goals and sent additional and detailed information in an email. I would absolutely recommend Canine Evolution.

Owning a reactive cattle dog can be a challenge however our trainer, Nina, has made a massive difference to Wally’s training in only a few days. And a massive difference in my knowledge and ability to continue this training. I cannot recommend Canine Evolution training enough!
