Suitable for ALL dogs of ALL ages (over 12 weeks old), this 5-week course is the most cost-effective and successful group dog training program around. Classes are held weekly at Buderim Mountain State School Oval (Sunday am, Monday pm, Wednesday pm).
If you have a very young puppy or nervous / reactive dog we can still help. Scroll down for more information.

More Information
Foundation class numbers are capped (12 dogs : 2 instructors) to ensure that each and every attendee receives the attention they need! Enrolment in this course also automatically enables you lifetime access to our e-learning system and online support group. Spaces fill quickly and early enrolment is advised to avoid disappointment.
If you have a nervous or reactive dog, a puppy younger than 12 weeks old, or would prefer a private appointment first, we’d love to help. Please scroll down for more information.
NERVOUS & REACTIVE DOGS
Most nervous and reactive dogs can greatly benefit from joining in with regular group classes, and are more than welcome at Padfoot. If your dog is extremely nervous or dangerously reactive, you should click here to SCHEDULE A BEHAVIOURAL ASSESSMENT first so we can advise the best course of action for your particular dog. Alternatively you can take advantage of our REACTIVE BEHAVIOUR MODIFICATION PACK which includes everything you need to help your dog including a behaviour assessment, lifetime group class enrolment, training equipment and a mandatory canine safety “Give Me Space” vest.
YOUNG PUPPIES
Puppies less than 12 weeks of age, sadly you need to wait until you’re old enough! But your people can always click here to BOOK A BEST START PUPPY PACK that includes a private, in-home lesson to get you started until you’re old enough to join group classes!
LIFETIME MEMBERSHIP
You can also consider our LIFE MEMBERSHIP option to save $$$s over your dog’s learning journey. Only Padfoof Life Members are able to participate in our Intermediate and higher levels so if you’re feeling motivated, make sure you join as a Life Member now and save the cost of the Foundation Course enrolment.
