Dog Training Services

Helping pet owners in Sunbury, Melbourne, and the north-west suburbs build confident, well-mannered dogs for everyday life.

At Summit Canine, we understand how stressful it can be when your dog’s behaviour makes daily life harder than it should be. Whether you’re dealing with pulling on the lead, poor recall, overexcitement around other dogs, or a lack of focus outdoors, our tailored dog training services can help.

We specialise in real-world results for pet owners who want lasting change, not quick fixes. Our programs focus on everyday obedience, good manners, and building a stronger relationship between you and your dog, so you can enjoy calm walks, a peaceful home, and more freedom together.

1:1 Private Dog Training

For dogs of all ages with specific behaviour or obedience goals

If you’ve tried different training approaches and still feel stuck, our 1:1 Private Training sessions are customised to your dog’s needs and your lifestyle. We work with you to uncover why behaviours are happening, then guide you through clear, step-by-step training solutions that work in the real world.

Common issues we address:

  • Pulling on the lead and ignoring cues outdoors

  • Poor recall or running off when called

  • Jumping up on people

  • Overexcitement around dogs or people

  • General obedience and manners at home or in public

Your concerns not listed above? Give us a call to discuss, and we can work with you to tailor a session suited to exactly what you want to achieve

The difference you’ll notice: walking your dog without tension on the lead, greeting guests without chaos, and enjoying calm, attentive behaviour wherever you go.

Investment: $150 for 90 minutes or $350 for 3x 90 minutes

Group Dog Training Classes

For building skills, confidence, and neutrality around other dogs

Many dogs behave well at home but struggle to focus when distractions are present. Our Group Training Classes teach you how to keep your dog calm, responsive, and engaged even in busy environments.

Ideal for:

  • Dogs who know the basics but need proofing around distractions

  • Practising engagement and obedience in a structured environment

  • Building neutrality so your dog can remain calm around other dogs and people

The difference you’ll notice: a dog who can work calmly and confidently around others, giving you the freedom to enjoy busier spaces without stress.

Note: New clients are required to attend an initial 1:1 session before joining group classes to ensure their safety and establish solid foundations.

Investment: $30 for 60 minutes

Puppy Development Program

For puppies in their crucial early development months

The first few months of a puppy’s life shape the adult dog they’ll become. Our Puppy Development Program sets you and your puppy up for success, helping prevent common behaviour issues before they start.

We focus on:

  • Crate training for safety, rest, and routine

  • Marker training to build clear communication

  • Proper socialisation without overwhelm or bad habits

  • Confidence building through structured, positive experiences

The difference you’ll notice: a confident, adaptable puppy who’s on the path to becoming a calm, well-mannered adult dog you can take anywhere.

Investment: $420 for 3 × 90-minute sessions

Train & Walks

For busy owners who want training progress between sessions

If your schedule makes it hard to keep up with consistent training, our Train & Walk service combines exercise with focused skill reinforcement. We practise obedience, engagement, and manners in real-world environments so your dog’s progress stays on track.

The difference you’ll notice: a happy, mentally stimulated dog who’s improving in obedience and manners without losing training momentum between your own sessions.

Investment: $50 for 45 minutes
