    I cannot recommend Patient Paws enough! My girl absolutely LOVES going there, the staff are so kind and welcoming, and have made my dog a happier girl. She has learned so much too, with their Train and Play program, as well as Doggy Daycare. We love Patient Paws!

    I am so impressed with Patient Paws and their amazing training methods. I have two Cocker Spaniels, which are both excitable. My nine-year-old had been kicked out of training at other schools for being so disruptive, mainly because he’s not food motivated. Patient Paws don’t use food in training and after the 3 day workshop I couldn’t believe how much better trained my dog was.

    Wish I’d known about this training sooner, my life would’ve been a lot easier if I did. We’ve still got a lot more work to do so both dogs are better behaved but we’re loving the weekly classes to keep learning and improve their manners and obedience. I highly recommend both the 3 day workshop and the 1 hour classes.

    My puppy enjoys daycare here, and has come home absolutely exhausted because she’s had so much fun!The team are friendly and helpful. The services they offer are very broad, so there’s something for everyone.

    I love the fact that the dogs attending daycare have been tested first, to assess whether they’re suitable to be in a daycare environment, makes me feel good knowing my puppy passed and also that she’s not in any danger because the other dogs have passed also.

    Update: We’re now doing private & group dog training classes here, our puppy is 7 months old and is doing so good! Can rate highly for training also

    I’ve only been attending Patient Paws with my pup for a short time, but already they’ve helped me immensely in changing the way I train and communicate with my dog.

    If you’d asked me to make my dog drop, and walk away for a minute without him breaking it, I don’t have confidence we would have been able to. Now, I can easily ask him to drop for an hour, and he will relax and not get up until I ask him to.

    The 3 day course was such a good investment. We picked up things that I think would have taken so much longer to learn casually. Gemma created such a wonderful and supportive learning environment, and teaches a really effective method of communicating with your dog. I can easily use all the principles learnt to reinforce the things covered, and apply them to other areas of manners around the home (like stop chasing the cat!).

    My dog is not treat motivated, and using this method, we made more progress in 3 days training than we did in weekly training over a 12 month period. And we both had so much fun throughout! We will definitely be regulars in the weekly classes, to continue helping him develop into a wonderful, well mannered and well trained dog.

    Thanks Gemma, Candy, Stan, and the rest of the Patient Paws team. Osiris and I had a fantastic time doing this workshop. I can’t believe how much we both learned!! To think Osiris was too naughty for other training centres but easily picked up things with your training methods. I only wish I’d come here sooner.

    After completing the 3 Day Intensive Workshop with my one year old Groodle, I honestly cannot believe the improvement in her obedience and manners in just 3 days and the tools I have learnt to continue on the journey from home and beyond.

    Gemma and her Team are absolutely sensational, so supportive and have a world of knowledge. 5 stars all round.

    Our Groodle waffle just completed the 3 day intensive training at Patient Paws and has come out the other end a totally different pooch. Prior to starting he would jump on everyone, pull on his lead, bark at anything that moved. He was unbearable to take out of the house and sometimes even to live with. With the awesome training provided but Gemma, Miranda and crew Waffle no longer does any of the bad habits he had developed. This course has changed our lives as well as Waffle’s. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants a better life with their dog. Even if you think they are untrainable. Thanks Patient Paws.

    My fur girl and I have just completed the 3 day intensive training with Gemma and her team and wow! What an incredible experience. The wealth of knowledge these ladies have is eye opening. Gemma has shown us skills, tips and tricks which were easy to understand and easy to implement at home going forward. We learnt a lot in such a short amount of time and look forward to giving it a crack at home. Thanks to all the staff at Patient Paws.

    We first encountered Patient Paws for puppy school on the recommendation of our vet. Our Xander is now 3 and we wouldn’t trust anyone else with our boy. From the many different training levels to doggy daycare, the ‘Aunties’ at Patient Paws have always ensured Xander is well looked after, beautifully socialised and continues to use his manners with every interaction. Xander perks up with excitement every time he realises he is heading to daycare to see his friends, get hugs from Aunties and play with the fun play equipment and toys they have available. The whole family also love attending the special group walks, first aid training and other social days organised to continue both our education and for Xander’s enjoyment. Thank you to Gemma and all the Patient Paws Aunties for creating such a wonderful environment that gives us peace of mind and a happily exhausted Xander every time he attends Patient Paws.

    We found Patient Paws via facebook whilst we were looking for our first dog together. We had both had dogs growing up and wanted our first pet together to be a good fit for our family. We signed Milo up for Puppy School and at first he was very shy. The Patient Paws Aunties reassured us and eased our nerves and after our session we were incredibly impressed with the training, attention to detail and support we were given. As we both were about to go back to work, we were apprehensive about leaving Milo at home so we decided to send him to Daycare at Patient Paws also.

    Ever since, Milo’s confidence and curiosity about the world has continued to grow all thanks to the love and care of the Patient Paws Aunties. He has made tons of friends and loves going to Patient Paws. We could never thank the Aunties enough for helping us and Milo. We are very excited to continue out training with Patient Paws and would recommend them to any dog parent.
