Herdy Nerdy Dog Training is Melbourne’s only fear-free working dog specialist, catering specifically to herding breeds such as Border Collies, Cattle Dogs, and Kelpies. Founded in 2019, our belief is that these intelligent and energetic dogs require a unique approach to training due to their distinct traits and behaviors. Our team of experienced trainers focuses on not only teaching your pet essential life skills and manners but also on empowering you to effectively communicate with them.
Utilizing rewards-based and force-free training methods, in collaboration with veterinarians, vet behaviorists, and animal physiotherapists, we offer a range of services to address various behavioral issues common in herding breeds. From loose lead walking and recall training to managing compulsive behaviors and aggression towards humans or other dogs, we provide a holistic and ethical approach to help your dog live a calmer and more fulfilling life.
Whether you’re located in Southeast Melbourne or anywhere worldwide, we offer in-person and online remote services to cater to your training needs. Our clients have praised our trainer, Katey, for her knowledge, compassion, and positive reinforcement techniques, which have led to significant improvements in their dogs’ behavior and overall well-being. Join us at Herdy Nerdy Dog Training for a fun, fear-free, and effective training experience tailored to your herding breed dog’s unique requirements.
