Train with me

Train with me

Tell me about your dog and I will take it from there. You do not pick a trainer, I match you myself.

What happens next

Three steps, and you know the price before you commit.

  1. 01

    You tell me about your dog

    The form below. It takes about five minutes and it comes straight to me, not to an inbox someone else reads.

  2. 02

    I reply within two business days

    With the right starting point for your dog, and the price for it. If I am not the right person, I will say so and point you somewhere better.

  3. 03

    We start with a 90-minute consult

    History, watching your dog in your household, a behavioural assessment, and you leave with a program. AU$400, in person in Melbourne's inner west or online worldwide. If the PACE Program follows, it is AU$1,600 for the four weeks with Diona (AU$2,000 all up), or AU$1,000 to AU$1,400 with a Hachi Way trainer she supervises. Paid as a package, never by the hour.

Older dogs, 12 weeks and up

Tell me about your dog

Fill this in and it comes straight to me. I read every one and reply within two business days. Every program is designed and supervised by me, and delivered by me or by a Hachi Way trainer I have trained and chosen.

About you

Only used to work out travel time if you book a home visit.

Your enquiry

I sometimes share short clips from sessions. Your answer changes nothing about the training, and you can change your mind at any time.

Puppies, under 12 weeks

The puppy path

Puppies are best started early, often before they even come home. The Good Puppy Blueprint is the nine-week program that does it, and the Socialisation Workbook walks you through where to go and what to do, week by week.
