Tom Heeren has always had dogs in his life and has owned Border Collies and Terriers for the past 30 years. Tom has trained many breeds of dogs in Warrnambool and now on the Mornington Peninsula. Tom's primary interest is helping owners solve behavioural struggles with their dogs.
Tom will design a personalised dog behaviour modification or transformation plan to help build confidence and resilience in your dog. One-on-one sessions will allow you and your dog to learn new skills, consolidate old ones and succeed in a relaxed and less stressful setting than in a multi-dog class. Training begins in your home and then progresses to include more distractions so that you and your dog can feel confident in any situation and have the skills to cope when confronting new challenges.
With two degrees in biological science, a Master's in teaching, and a certified Pro Dog Trainer and Geek from Absolute Dogs, Tom is well-qualified to help you and your dog succeed.

Tom keeps up-to-date with the latest scientific canine behavioural and cognitive studies that show that anxious and nervous dogs need space, understanding, patience and emotional support to help them learn to overcome their problems.
There is no quick fix or magic command, and in extreme cases, some dogs may require support throughout their lives.
Each dog is an individual, and what may work for one dog may not be the best solution for another. Tom can develop a personal program for you and your dog by understanding your dog's breed, observing its behaviour, and getting to know the owner.
The Absolute Dogs training methodology is centred around the motto 'There's a game for that!' Dogs, like humans, learn and retain information better if the learning experience is meaningful and fun.
