About K9 Business
Private, in-home obedience and behaviour modification training for dogs and puppies across Geelong, the Bellarine Peninsula, Bacchus Marsh and the Macedon Ranges.
What we do
K9 Business teaches owners how to lead their dogs with calm, consistent communication. Every program is delivered one on one, in your own home or a local park, so the training happens in the environment your dog actually lives in rather than a crowded group class. Sessions cover foundation obedience such as sit, drop, stay, recall and loose lead walking, and behaviour modification for the problems that make daily life difficult, including jumping up, pulling on the lead, barking, reactivity to other dogs and people, and separation distress.
Training is built around the whole household, because a dog learns from every person it meets. We show you what to practise between sessions, how to read your dog's body language, and how to hold the same standard every day so new habits actually stick.
Who it is for
We work with first time puppy owners who want to get the basics right from the start, families bringing home a rescue dog with an unknown history, and experienced owners whose adult dog has developed habits they can no longer manage on their own. Many of our clients are in regional and outer suburban areas where a local trainer is hard to find, or where their dog finds a busy training centre overwhelming. If your dog is nervous, strong on the lead, or simply has never been taught manners, we can help.
Where we work
We are a mobile service and travel to you, covering Geelong, the Bellarine Peninsula, Bacchus Marsh and the Macedon Ranges. Training in your own yard or street means your dog learns where it matters, and you are not left to translate a lesson from a hall into your own home. We also coach you through the places your dog finds hardest, such as the front door, the car, the vet or the local walking track.
How this website helps
This website is built and maintained by the K9 Business team so that booking a trainer takes minutes instead of a phone tag. You can send an enquiry through the contact form, and once a session is booked you complete your booking agreement online in your browser rather than printing and posting paperwork. Your answers are stored securely and used only to plan your dog's training, and the manager area lets us keep appointments, client details and completed agreements in one place. If you would rather talk it through first, the phone is always answered.

Obedience & behaviour modification
Every dog starts somewhere different. Puppies learn focus, manners and social skills before bad habits form. Adolescent and adult dogs work through lead manners, recall, settling, and reactivity at a pace they can handle. Owners leave each session knowing exactly what to practise, and why it works.
If you are not sure which program suits your dog, send us a short message describing what is happening at home. We will tell you honestly what is realistic, how many sessions it is likely to take, and what you can start doing straight away.
