Areas We Service in ACT

Our dog training programs are available to dogs in Canberra and surrounding areas. Whether you're located in the capital or just outside the border, many pet parents travel to us for the personalised care and expertise our trainers provide.

Things To Know for Dog Training in ACT

Before your dog begins their training program, we encourage you to chat with one of our certified trainers to discuss what you'd like to achieve and set clear, realistic goals.

Our programs focus on building the foundations for good behaviour, but it’s important to maintain these skills at home to ensure long-lasting results. Your dog will also need to meet our vaccination requirements before joining the program.

Not every dog may be suitable for our training programs, but we’re happy to offer alternative recommendations based on your dog’s needs.

Your dog must also be up to date with their C5 Vaccinations and a current vaccination certificate uploaded to your Customer Portal. We are able to cater for dogs that aren't desexed, but we do not take dogs in heat across our centres.

Awesome little puppy school and day care ! We took our 10 week old puppy there for school and they treated him so well, we got one on one care and advice and they took the most gorgeous graduation photo!

Maxine Jones

My border collie cross Olivewas a recent adoption from RSPCA when she had her first stay at Kip Ipswich. She returned to me happy and settled then on her second stay at Kip she greeted staff so enthusiastically that I know I can always count on her being happy there. Thanks Kip for the updates and for taking such good care of Olive.

Antz

Great place with caring and friendly staff and competitive prices. Our dog absolutely loves it here and we love how they keep us informed with photos and videos through the day, and they also provide feedback when we pick her up.

Tori Darrington

It actually would of been rude of me, not to write a review!! My mini dachshund goes here, and unlike other schools they do not have the dangerous equipment i was anxious about. The daycare was super friendly, nice, reassuring and patient with my baby... I received a report card on his first day, and in great detail which means they really do not over look anything. You have you own account, and not only receive updates but little personal videos, along with the ones posted on Instagram. Kip is everywhere, and your account is connected, so it is super convenient and i would totally recommend for anyone looking! Thank you!!! x
