  • We work all across Sydney to help clients with dog training and behaviourism. From barking and separation anxiety to lead pulling and aggression, we have seen it all. We focus first on understanding your dog and getting them to choose to follow and listen to us. When dogs aren't making all the decisions, they calm down and relax, making them far more receptive to training. To do this, we don’t need to use force, fear or aggression. In fact the opposite. The key is getting them to turn to you and listen when it matters. Once they're calm and looking to you for guidance, you can effectively show them how to behave.In short: before you train the dog, you need to win their mind..

Our ethos

How the method works

Developing a well behaved dog has 2 parts:

  • Dog Psychology
  • Dog Training

We focus first on understanding your dog and getting them to choose to follow and listen to us. When dogs aren't making all the decisions, they calm down and relax, making them far more receptive to training.

To do this, we don’t need to use force, fear or aggression. In fact the opposite. Whether dealing with barking, leash pulling, jumping, or aggression, these behaviours typically stem from dogs being too excited, reactive, and emotional.

The key is getting them to turn to you and listen when it matters. Once they're calm and looking to you for guidance, you can effectively show them how to behave.


In short: before you train the dog, you need to win their mind..

At-Home Dog Training Sydney

Looking for a local Sydney Dog Trainer? Or need help with your dog's behaviour? Book our one to one at home dog training and get you and your best mate back on track.

You've tried everything with your dog. The endless treats, brain games and a range of random youtube videos with trainers saying they have some magic bullet but Nothing sticks. You're not doing it wrong, you are just trying to fix the wrong thing. Your dog isn't broken.

Whether you've got a barking dog or a dog who pulls on the leash or a dog who jumps up or is becoming a little bit aggressive, the chances are they are getting far too excited, reactive and far too emotional at that point in time. The real trick I found is to get those dogs to turn to you, to listen to you when it really matters. Because if you get that bit in place and they're not all scattered-brain and over excited and over emotional you're halfway there. If they're calm and they turn and look to you, then you have the opportunity to show them how you want them to behave.

So in a nutshell, before you start to "train the dog" you need to know how to "win their mind" The problem is that most trainers jump straight into commands and training your dog when they are overstimulated. The problem isn't that you dog doesn't know what to do, it's that they are choosing not to listen.

Think of it like having a terrible fear of flying and being dragged towards of plane. Someone telling you how safe planes are isn't going to make you calm down

At The Toe Beans Co, we don't start by training your dog. We start by understanding the why — through the dog's eyes. Once your dog actually chooses to come alongside you, everything else becomes easy.

We come to your home in Sydney. We spend two and a half hours with you and your dog — in your space, with your specific issues. No generic advice. We look at the cause, we show you exactly how to change it, and you leave with a plan you can start that same day.

This is completely force-free. No shouting, no punishment, no pain. We work with your dog's natural instincts — not against them.

Are there any dog breeds you do not work with?

No. Whether you have: a Chihuahua or a Mastiff, an unhinged lunatic of a Spaniel or a goofball of a Rottie. Big, small, angry, lazy, cute, ugly, cuddly or just straight up weird, we love them all.

Many dogs are stereotyped against because some idiot decided to treat them badly and make them into something they are not.

I have worked with Groodles that were dangerous to the point I couldn't enter the room and a 90kg Rottweiler who had to have his cuddly "Lilo and Stitch" toy whenever we went for a walk.

Is barking fixable?

Yes and no. Certain breeds are more inclined to bark (such as the Dachshund). These dogs are inclined to bark more easily and changing these behaviours is incredibly challenging. For other breeds this is possible with consistency and effort.

Is separation anxiety curable?

Of all the issues we cover this is by far the most common in Sydney. Unfortunately, there is no one fix for this and usually it takes a combination of elements to get results. There is no guarantee of fixing separation anxiety
