Skills 4 Dogs
Sandy Patterson Dip CBST
Qualified and Experienced Dog Trainer
Mackay 4740 Queensland
Trainer. Educator. Behavioursist, at Skills 4 Dogs, I offer Dog Training services and Dog Behaviour Change Programs with a very simple philosophy. I believe that training the animals of Mackay should be effective, fun, innovative, and growl-free. Dogs and humans involved in the process experience the benefits of fear and force free, modern, evidence based methods.

Passionate Trainer
With 30 years of experience, I am still dedicated to studying dog behavior and the latest research. My dogs and I have played in agility, tracking, scent detection, rally-o, treiball, and tricks. I believe learning should always be stress free for both dogs and their humans, fostering a strong bond and a happy companionship. Join me on a fun adventure in training and behaviour modification. Keeping training affordable and working with owners with flexible times.
