We apply the latest positive-reinforcement methods together with balanced training to promote steady learning. Your dog gains clarity and assurance when following commands, with programs personalised to their breed and temperament.We base our programs on the responsible dog ownership standards set out by the Queensland Government, fostering safe public behaviour and strong handler responsibility through recognised training practices.
Our puppy training programs focus on developing strong habits early in a pup’s life. Puppies take in new information rapidly, and early training helps them mature into confident, social, and well-behaved dogs. We help with:
Toilet training
Socialisation foundations
Crate introduction
Leash manners
Basic commands
Early behaviour shaping (biting, chewing, barking)
Unlike crowded city puppy schools, your pup enjoys wide-open country spaces that make training calmer and more confidence-building. Many Hunchy clients say city classes can be overstimulating. At The Mutts Nuts, your puppy is free to learn in a relaxed, chaos-free environment.
Our trainers give you the tools to manage at-home routines, feeding patterns, enrichment practices, and exercise so your puppy flourishes long-term.

Calm exposure training
Confidence-building exercises
Structured routine development
Behaviour reset sessions
Emotional stabilisation through predictable patterns
In high-density suburbs, many Hunchy dogs face overstimulation; our country setting delivers the peace, space, and nature they need to decompress and learn.
Our training aligns with Queensland Government guidelines on pet safety, welfare and responsible dog management, so you can feel assured that our approach is ethical, safe and fully compliant. From day one, you’ll notice your dog responding positively.
