    Great experience with Cam. We specifically reached out to him because our dog Busby wasn’t great on the leash. Within just 15 minutes we could see such a huge difference in him, more attentive and following commands. We will continue practicing with Busby and already had a successful walk this evening. I highly recommend Cam and complete K9 Brisbane!

    Cam is such a wealth of knowledge about canine behavior and training. Simple and thoughtful tips to help with everyday life at home and out and about with your dog. He helped our 7-month old German Shepherd walk on the lead without pulling or reacting to other dogs. What a difference! A great asset for any dog owner. Thanks Cam! Highly recommended.

    Cam was amazing for my reactive border collie. After one session he had her walking beautifully on the lead and has me confident walking with her again. He understand dog behaviour and approaches every dog differently depending on their needs. Highly recommend him!

    Such an amazing experience with Cam. Can’t recommend him enough. He was able to get great results from our GSD and 2 pups straight away. He gave us great advice and techniques, walking us through how to continue their training to get the same results. We and our GSD’s love him. Thank you again Cam 🙏🏾, see you again soon 😊 D & J

    Such a fantastic experience working with Cam today. Refreshing to meet someone with a genuine love for training and the welfare of anxious dogs. Our reactive Cattle x was absolutely smitten and thrived under Cams attention and training techniques. Cam showed us just how easy it can be to give her the guidance and reassurance she needed to feel comfortable both inside and outside the house and for us to feel comfortable taking her outside as well. Thank you Complete K9!

    Cam spent an hour with our XL American Bully x Doggo Argentino who was always pulling the lead and super hyperactive when outside. Within the hour he was following my pace, walking on the lead relaxed and listening to all the commands taught to him. I was amazed at how quickly our dog responded to Cam's training. I have already recommended him to a friend and cannot praise him enough. He is extremely professional and was fantastic at his job!

    Many thanks to Cam for his guidance and expertise with our extremely reactive 11 month old German Shepherd puppy, Käiser. Prior to starting with Cam, we were really struggling with managing Käiser’s reactivity to people and dogs. Walks were very stressful, with us crossing the street and hiding behind cars to avoid triggering his reactivity. Käiser’s reactivity to dogs could start from 100m. In our first session, Cam had us walking Käiser past half of the church congregation up the street from us - on the same footpath! In our following sessions with Cam, Käiser was learning to make doggy friends again. Our training journey with Käiser is continuing, as we build up his confidence. We are very excited to see the progress we’re making with Käiser, thank you Cam.

    Just a week after one session with Cam our big wolfhound x who would pull and bark at other dogs is walking calmly beside us and interacting with us during our walks. I can only imagine this will get more and more enjoyable each week. Cam is lifesaver and game changer when we used to be stressed each walk.

    Cam was great! Listened to my specific issues with my pup, Discussed them with me and then showed me how to do work on the exercises and tasks. Then followed it up with the process in writing to refer back to! Anika my pup was very relaxed around him.

    Cam was amazing with our Dutch Shepherd Knight. We were struggling with lead pulling and walking had become a stressful time. In just one session Cam had Knight walking perfectly beside us. We would recommend Cam to anyone looking for a dog trainer. He is extremely knowledgeable and very friendly. Thanks again Cam 😊
