About your trainer

Karen Bertoncini is an IMDT qualified dog trainer. Karen’s dog training journey began when her older dog "Ollie" became anxious and unable to socialise due to being confined to her property until he was fully grown as the result of a leg operation. The crucial window was lost.  Karen decided that she wanted to learn how she could help Ollie regain confidence and trained him on all the basic foundation behaviours.  Six months after his recovery, and with consistent training Karen was confident with loose leash walking Ollie along with his recall outside of the property.  Now, at age five he is still a little anxious but loving life and still enjoys learning new tricks.

Karen decided to take what she had learnt to help other dog owners in her local area and developed a range of dog training programs. Karen has the skills, experience and knowledge to help you achieve your goals from puppy school to one to one for the dog that needs that little bit extra.

“Highly recommended Karen. Her love and passion for dogs really shows. In just 4 sessions we have a very well behaved pup who is now house trained and we are able to redirect the chewing and destructive behaviours with positive reinforcement. Thank you Karen."
