Your dog can be a well-behaved family member,
a Kool K9 that walks on lead and comes when you call.
Small and flexible classes
Class sizes are typically six dogs, so you and your dog get quality time with the Kool K9 training team, while learning to cope with the distraction of other dogs in a safe environment.
Classes are held in the evenings, either at our fenced training area in Koromatua, or indoors at Hamilton Hounds dog daycare in Frankton.


Private lessons for big results
Whether your dog is an angel needing a little work, a puppy needing training, or has a serious behavioural issue, Joanne has the experience to help.
For one-on-one training, Joanne can come to you or you can come to our fenced-off training area.
