Tailored Training Programs for Sydney Dogs
Every dog is different, and we tailor our training programs to meet their specific needs and personality. Our experienced trainers create customised training plans that fit your dog's unique quirks. Choose from:
- Canine Coaching: Designed to provide additional enrichment for dogs boarding with us, you can choose as many or as few training days as you like. This option is perfect for high-energy dogs that need extra stimulation to keep them entertained.
- Board & Train: Our intensive and popular program, Board & Train, involves a stay of 16-25 days where your dog works with a dedicated trainer for multiple training sessions a day. The goal is to create lasting behavioural improvements, focusing on the specific outcomes you want to achieve as discussed with your trainer during the onboarding stage.

Things To Know for Dog Training in Sydney
Before starting any training program with us, your dog will need to be up to date with their C5 (or equivalent) vaccination. We are able to cater for dogs that aren't desexed, but we do not take dogs in heat across our centres. To the extent your dog comes into heat whilst in our care, we will require an emergency contact to pick them up within 24 hours of being notified. All flea and worming treatments must also be up to date.
We know the importance of staying up to date with your dog’s training progress. Throughout the program, you'll receive regular updates to your Customer Portal, so you're always in the loop on your dog's progress.
Why Choose Kip Happy Stays for Dog Training in Sydney?
At Kip, we believe in building trust and positive relationships with the dogs we train. By focusing on each dog’s individual personality and learning style, we create a comfortable, supportive environment that allows your dog to thrive.
We prioritise your dog's wellbeing and progress, which is why our Board & Train program includes off-site training in real-world settings. This practical approach helps your dog build confidence in everyday situations and reinforces the skills learned during their stay with us.
Regular progress updates help you stay engaged throughout your dog’s training journey, and our commitment to ongoing support means the learning continues even after your dog leaves our facilities. With Kip, you’re not just investing in training sessions; you're giving your dog the tools to succeed in everyday life.
