Hello I’m Carly and I am a puppy + dog trainer in safety bay!

But you knew that, that’s why you’re here, I hope.

I am a reward based trainer, who believes in training your dog or puppy for real life. By focusing on life skills like recall, walking calmly on lead and being able to settle, so you will have a dog you can take everywhere. That’s what you want right? A dog who is a legend to live with, plus you can take him to the local cafe without any dramas!

Training should be as much fun for both the human and canine parts of the team and I wholeheartedly believe that!

If that tail ain’t wagging then I’m doing something wrong.

I started dog training in 2013, when 2yr old Jack AKA Big J, came into my life. I agreed to foster him after seeing a picture , he was handsome AF: “He’s not a small dog” should’ve been the first clue. But off I went to visit this potential foster dog, and came home with a 40kg ginger whirlwind, who’d never lived in a house, who could jump 6ft from standing, who had separation anxiety and who really liked chasing moving things. All really helpful ‘skills’ for a dog who was now living in a busy East London suburb.

The first day he arrived he stole biscuits, sh*t on the carpet, dragged the kitchen bins across the hall. He was so stressed I thought he’d have a heart attack. He then slept for hours and my learning had begun

As well as family dogs, Assistance & Therapy Dog training is my bag. My journey into Assistance dog training started when I achieved certification as a School of Canine Science Super Dogs trainer, in the UK. I work closely with Therapy Dogs NSW and help train Therapy Dogs through their online Therapy Dog Certification program.

Outside of Super Woofers, I have a Dog Kit Company too called WAGD
