New Group Dates
Scroll down for new group class dates for the final classes this year.
There is a new "Casual Saturday" schedule for this Summer. See also below.
How can we help?
* Is your dog creating havoc in your life? Does your schedule prevent you from getting to group classes?
* Is your dog jumping all over your clean outfit, jumping on guests, knocking over the kids?
* Are you embarrassed to walk your dog? Or perhaps unable to take the dog out at all?
Beta Dogs Dog Training can help you.
Beta Dogs Dog Training offers dog training with a difference. We are located in Ballarat (Vic) and service Ballarat and the
surrounding region. We offer a problem-solving training method that actually works. Regardless of breed, age or
behavioural issues we are willing to work with you to teach your dog what it is allowed or not allowed to do.
Beta Dogs Dog Training offers a personalised dog training service within Ballarat and the surrounding region. We come to
you at home and strive to be flexible with training times. This is ideal for people with full time 9 to 5 work, or people who
work different shifts on a rotational basis.
If you prefer Group Classes, we offer small group classes as well. See the Dog Training Services page
Acknowledgement
Beta Dogs Dog Training acknowledges the traditional owners of the Country that we live in and work on, the Wadawarrung and Dja Dja Warrung people, and we pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging.
Methodology
Dog obedience is essential if you want your dog to be not only a pleasant member of society, but one which can be taken anywhere and be a true part of the family.
The method used is a positive and reward-based method, however no treats are used in our training. This method has been intensively researched and developed by The Alpha Canine Group over the past 30+ years and is based on a dog's natural behaviours and responses to their environment.
The techniques are simple to learn, and when applied in a consistent and correct manner can change your dog from being difficult to manage to being a happy, relaxed and obedient member of the family.
The Beta Dogs Dog Training instructor will have their own well trained dog with them (if appropriate) to demonstrate the training techniques and offer proof that a dog can be trained to an exceptionally high standard using the identical methods they are demonstrating.
The aim is to create a line of communication between you and your dog, and by using positive reinforcement Beta Dogs Dog Training can show you how to teach your dog basic obedience exercises, establish patterns of good behavior and work on problems such as fear and aggression.
No dog will be rejected based on age, breed, size or temperament.

Summer Holiday Training
Summer break is busy and people are not always able to commit to a set schedule of classes. This Summer, Beta Dogs will hold a series of Casual Saturdays for current and past customers of any level. These classes will be held either at Yuille Park P-8 College, or at the Ballarat Botanical Gardens, depending on weather and my personal whim for that day. RSVPs will be required. Cost remains unchanged at $10 per team of Human and Dog/s
