Hi There, I am Claudia
You’re a parent to a furry-footed friend,
And you care deeply about THEIR wellbeing.
You know that your pet is one of the greatest blessings to have come into your life – the endless tail wagging, the furry cuddles, the goofy grin whenever they see your car in the driveway. You’ve spent hours working with your pet trying to correct this one niggling habit that is affecting your relationship. The leash pulling, the endless peeing on the furniture, the constant barking that never seems to end.
All you need is someone to come in and assist, someone to communicate to you what the problem is – because you’re tired of trying to figure it out, right? You may even feel exhausted, and saddened at how your relationship has changed.
Not to worry, this is where I come in.

Understanding your dogs Needs, one tail Wag at a time
I am Claudia, founder and head trainer at Positive Pets.
I am here to help you get to the root cause of the issue and address all those niggly behavioural challenges so that you can stay their favourite friend. Sometimes all that is needed is a bit of understanding and the right kind of guidance.
I take a bit more of a unique approach
1. I believe that some of the best transformations take place right from the comfort of your own home. Not only does this allow for individual, one-on-one attention, but it also creates space for your pet to act as he or she usually would – this allows us to create a more accurate and detailed protocol.
2. I don’t believe that there are ‘problem pets’, but rather pets that require understanding and guidance. There is always a reason behind a behaviour, and if we can access and understand that reason then we are already well on our way to correcting it.
3. I believe in positive reinforcement. I am not supportive of alpha training or hostile techniques that are often utilized in dog training schools – sometimes these may be more detrimental than good. Rather, I believe in approaching my training with a more heartfelt and gentle approach.
I am here to create a bit more positivity
After an initial strategy call, we will dive into the initial assessment so I can monitor and observe how your pet behaves in his or her natural environment. I am here to help you get to the root of the cause. A lot of this will be observed within the first consultation, which usually takes one to two hours. This will take place in a relaxing setting, your pet’s own territory, which will allow him to feel at ease and act naturally. After this process of observation and analysis, I will be able to come up with guidelines, checklists and a protocol that we can utilize going forward.
A NEW TAke ON DOG TRAINING
This package is designed as a 5 week course- much like puppy school, but with a bit of a difference. I will come to your home once a week and we will work on basic cues and training that every new pup or furry friend will benefit from.
This package is great for first time dog owners, new additions to your furry family (young or old) or anyone wanting to teach their dog the basics.
Start with an initial query call
Let’s hop on a call and discuss your unique requirements. We are able to work with any breed or size of dog. However, it is important to note that I am not a behaviourist, therefore I do not take on severe cases of animal aggression.
Next we set up the first consultation
This usually lasts for 1 – 2 hours, during which I will spend time observing your animal’s behaviour within their home environment. This is either done online or in person.
We then work to implement changes
Finally we will set up protocols, guidelines and follow up consultations in order to ensure that the goals that we have discussed and set up are reached.
