PRIVATE DOG TRAINING

Best Dog Trainer in Melbourne for Behaviour Modification

Many clients come to me after they have tried various dog training methods and worked with multiple dog trainers and dog behaviourists to address their dog's persistent behavioural problems, without success of even attaining an understanding of the root causes of the behaviours.

That's where I come in.

Private dog training melbourne for reactivity and barking

Victoria Cornick

"I have used dog trainers before and none came close to how effective Diona and her methods are. She literally saved our rescued dog from being completely misunderstood by us and potentially needing to be rehomed again. Now Zia is a very happy and cherished part of our family and always will be."

Tayla Cooper

"After trying obedience and lots of other tactics we found Diona. Gibbs is now such a calm and content boy, it's so amazing to witness his transformation. She really got to the core of the issue and taught us so much about our boy and his needs."

Shantelle Santos

"After countless different trainers, YouTube training videos, and Google searches, we thought our dogs' reactivity would keep getting worse. But after finding Diona, we have seen more change in the last month than we have over the last year."

Celeste Dennis

"I have been to a couple of other dog trainers in the past, but Diona's methods have been the most effective by far. I love how she teaches your dog to make good decisions - rather than training your dog to obey commands with treats."

Dina de Lestrange

"Much of what we’d learned with other trainers used a lot of treats but this wasn’t helpful when trying to get him to walk on a loose lead, improve his recall or with barking. Diona taught us exactly what to do and, with patience and hard work, it worked!"
