Beyond Puppy School: Expert Dog Training for Central Suburban Living and Park Compliance
Why a Waverley Pup Needs Our Full Program
Waverley is a quiet, elevated residential suburb that sits immediately next to the major commercial hub of Bondi Junction. Your young dog must be trained for two distinct environments: the serene, tree-lined streets of the neighbourhood itself, and the jarring crowds and noise that spill over from the busy transport and retail centre. A core challenge for owners here is managing the complex off-leash rules at Waverley Park, where use is heavily regulated. You need a complete plan that guarantees composure and compliance. Our Puppy Program guides you from the pre-puppy stage through the full eight months of development. Our mission at The Toe Beans Co is simple: to improve the lives of every dog and their family by giving pet parents the confidence and tools to raise a happy, well-adjusted companion in the central Eastern Suburbs.
Why Choose The Toe Beans Co Over a Basic Puppy Class?
Waverley owners choose our program because we provide long-term expertise in managing the dual nature of the suburb: peaceful home life and hyper-busy public interfaces.
We offer comprehensive, sustained support that protects your investment in your dog’s behaviour. Our guarantee is simple: If you attend the entire course, miss no sessions and don't think we were worth it. We will give you 100% of your money back.
We specialize in training reliability for shared Waverley Council spaces, ensuring dogs understand restricted areas like playgrounds and sportsfields at Varna Park and Waverley Park. Training is backed by a robust resource system built for urban families. You receive 6 Months Chat and Email Support from day one, plus 6 Months Video Tutorial Support with over 300+ videos, ensuring you always have expert guidance whenever new behaviours pop up.
Our team ensures the highest standard of ethical training. We only use positive, science-backed methods. Our trainers are an Accredited member of the Dog Trainer Academy, hold a Red Cross Australia Pet First Aid Trainer certification, and are AFP Background Checked. We also provide a complete equipment kit, including harnesses and training tools, and a supportive Puppy Team Cohort. We are a Certified Professional Pet Sitter.
Our Comprehensive Puppy Program: Your Road Map to a Great Dog
We cover three key phases in your dog’s journey to make sure they develop into a well-mannered adult who thrives in Sydney.
Pre-Puppy Program (Pre-Puppy to 8 Weeks)
This program is for new or prospective owners. Before committing, we help you understand whether getting a dog is the right decision for your lifestyle. We then help you master noise and routine management in residential areas before the pup arrives, ensuring problem prevention.
Puppy Program (8 Weeks – 8 Months) & Puppy School
Searching for "Puppy School in Waverley" leads you to the foundational component of our Puppy Program, tackling the critical 8 weeks to 8 months phase.
- Puppy School Component: This is 4×50 minute puppy classes between 12 and 16 weeks covering socialisation and core skills. We strongly prefer in-person training, which is held at a suitable location in the Eastern Suburbs, but a flexible online workshop is available if needed. Location details are confirmed upon booking.
- Overall Program Value: Includes 4-week class, plus all the necessary support. We coach you to manage high-level distractions from traffic and pedestrians on major routes like Birrell Street and Bondi Road that cut through the suburb.
Post Puppy Program (8 Months +)
This is the essential next step for your maturing dog. Our Post Puppy Program is designed for dogs 8 months and older who need advanced skills for navigating young adulthood. We focus on:
- Complex Off-Leash Compliance: Achieving precise recall and obedience within the designated, upper reservoir area of Waverley Park (off-leash zone), ensuring dogs stay clear of the sporting fields and Memorial Gardens.
- Leash Manners: Perfecting walking skills when passing busy local features like the Waverley Cemetery and the local shops/cafes at the suburban heart.
- Noise Desensitisation: Training composure around emergency sirens and construction noise common in the area near the transport hub, preventing fear-based reactivity.
Frequently Asked Questions About Puppy School Waverley
Here are the answers you need:
Q: When is the best time for my puppy to start Puppy School? A: Puppies should start the practical Puppy School component of our Puppy Program between 12 and 16 weeks old. This is their most important period for socialisation and learning. Get in early to take full advantage of this window for their development.
Q: Do you use positive reinforcement training only? A: Yes, absolutely. We use an ethical, modern, and force-free method. We believe in building a strong, happy relationship with your puppy based on rewards and clear communication, never fear or punishment.
Q: Where in Waverley is the training held? A: Puppy School is conducted in the Eastern Suburbs. We will confirm the exact location details upon booking, giving you maximum flexibility while ensuring a safe and controlled environment for socialisation.
Q: How long does The Toe Beans Co Puppy Program run for? A: Our core Puppy Program is designed to support you from 8 weeks through to 8 months of age, covering the early foundational Puppy School and the crucial Post Puppy phase.
Q: Can you help with issues like apartment barking and separation anxiety? A: Yes. High-density living often leads to noise complaints. We address the root cause of separation anxiety and nuisance barking, teaching your dog to relax when left alone in a high-stimulus environment.
Q: What is the biggest difference between your Puppy Program and others? A: The difference is the duration and value. Our program provides 4×50-minute in-person classes, 6 months of dedicated chat/video support, lifetime methodology access, equipment, and a team cohort to support you for the first eight months of your dog's development.

“I felt at ease leaving my rescue Bonnie (who also receives daily medication) with the Toe Beans Co while we traveled overseas. I know she got the care and daily pats she needs and even received regular videos and updates.”
