As a qualified Dog Trainer (through the National Dog Trainers Federation or NDTF) and qualified Veterinary Nurse, I’m enthusiastic about ensuring dogs have a holistically enriched and fulfilled life.My aim is to give owners the best companions they could ask for by making sure that their dog’s genetic needs are being met.
I studied Veterinary Nursing to better understand the link between pain and behaviour.
Some dogs are very subtle with their signs of pain, but the pain can be a compounding cause of a number of undesirable behaviours.
I run Canine Health + First Aid seminars to help other dog professionals and owners have the information and skills to help their dogs in a crisis. -

Topnotch K9 all started back in 2017 when Shane purchased a Rottweiler puppy. The puppy turned out to be a handful, so Shane sought out help. Through his training journey he fell in love with the art of dog training and decided to venture into the realm of helping people enjoy their dogs as much as he enjoyed working with his girl; Luna.
After achieving his accreditation through the NDTF and spending countless hours reading books, researching dog behaviour and mentoring with many pet dog trainers he decided he wanted to expand his knowledge in the realm of military application working dogs.
This took him on a journey down to another training centre called Task 9; where he spent years mentoring under one of the pioneers of dog training in Australia; with over 40 years experience!
With this experience & mentoring Shane has the expertise to train and rehabilitate human reactive or aggressive dogs.
Shane is also first aid certified.

“Emily was recommended by a friend when we needed a dog trainer and we were not disappointed! Emily is so knowledgeable and has such information, and not just about training, about their health and well-being as well. I couldn’t recommend Emily any higher than I could.
She is absolutely amazing.
We have two very stubborn British Bulldogs. Emily was able to train and transition any of their behaviours that we were concerned about.”

“Emily is extremely knowledgeable about dogs. I really feel like I am working with an expert. She is honest and down to earth. I never feel silly asking questions and I am completely comfortable around her. I started working with Emily with our 11 month old German Shepard. We have only had two sessions so far and I can already see so much progress with my dog. If you have a dog that is walking all over you I highly recommend Emily as she can figure out what exactly is going wrong and help you to have a much better relationship with your dog! Worth the money!”
