Dog Knows Training and Behaviour Consulting

Dog Knows is a friendly, personalised dog training and behaviour consulting service run by trainer Kate Denman. The practice focuses on helping owners achieve calm, well-mannered dogs using humane, science-backed methods and positive reinforcement endorsed by organisations like the RSPCA and the Australian Veterinary Association. Programs are tailored to each dog and household and range from puppy problem support and basic manners to targeted behaviour work for aggression, anxiety and stress-related issues. Common problems addressed include biting, jumping up, barking, lunging and separation anxiety, and the approach emphasises strengthening the relationship between dog and owner rather than punishment. Training options are flexible and practical — Kate provides customised solutions and can even do the training herself for clients who need hands-on help, ensuring realistic, achievable outcomes that fit owners’ lifestyles. The tone is supportive and professional, with a clear focus on early intervention and solutions that are enjoyable for both dogs and their families. Overall, Dog Knows aims to create harmonious, lasting relationships between dogs and people through kind, effective training tailored to each dog's needs.
