Obedience and Behaviour Training
Many dog owners like to have a happy and active dog who is obedient and can respond to instructions without making a wrong move. At Shadowhawk, we help you achieve this. With our experienced trainers and well-structured training classes, your dog will receive the best training possible.

Private Lessons
The fastest way a dog owner can learn to handle their dog is through private lessons. Most people need about 1 to 3 lessons for a good understanding, which can take up to nearly 18 months in a large class with an easily distracted dog. Therefore, our private lessons are an apt choice if you are looking for quick results. You can come to us, or we can come to you at your home.Live-in Training

Group Classes
Like children, your dog will learn quicker in a one-on-one class. However, we are happy to put together small groups where friends can come together and learn for the same price as a private lesson.On-the-Spot Training
On-the-Spot Training
Some dogs experience behaviour issues related to a particular spot or location. Whether you have trouble going to the vets or walking past a house near you, our team can come with you to the trouble spot. Once we have the basics working, we will head to your trouble spot and train there.Working With Distractions
Working With Distractions
Many dogs listen well in quiet environments, but some struggle with distractions. We will train your dog to ignore distractions and focus better.Fully Trained & Insured Handlers
Behaviour Training
Problem Behaviour
Some behaviour exhibited by your dog can drive your family and neighbours mad. Problem behaviour can be modified and sometimes cured, depending on the owner’s commitment to change unwanted behaviour. Our experienced trainer will guide you through the process of overcoming problematic behaviours.
Points to Consider for Correcting Behaviour
- Catching them in the act 100% of the time has the most success
- Prevention helps. It is better to prevent than later trying to correct a behaviour
- Sometimes a one-hour onsite consultation can work out a plan of approach with a good combination of training, prevention and modification
