About Us
The Part of the Pack (POTP) assistance dog training program was inspired by my passion to support ‘Owner trainers’ on their journey to independence.
The program was created utilising knowledge gained from years of experience training a large range of species in Zoos and Aquariums. In these settings, training is utilised for displays, animal enrichment and encouraging animals to voluntarily participate in veterinary procedures.
To educate and support clients, Part of the Pack provides in-person sessions as well as distance learning. All training programs are flexible and tailored to the handler’s individual needs, previous experience and comprehension levels.
The education and assessment program currently has 4 certificates to complete. During which your trainer will guide you to becoming a confident and proficient handler/trainer.
During each Certificate, clients receive an education in training methods as well as the necessary skills and information to use their dog confidently and safely as an Auxiliary aid.
Behaviours are broken down into step-by-step guides to assist handlers and their dogs to communicate clearly, and achieve each of the certificate requirements.
During the 12 + months of training, teams work with a trainer who will be in contact regularly to discuss behaviour progress, temperament, issue resolution and provide support with any public access issues. Most importantly, Part of the Pack takes on a maximum number of clients at once allowing time to understand the more intricate details of each training team’s personal circumstances.
Contact Part of the Pack today to tell us your circumstances and see how the Pack can support you.
