Short and Long-Term Stays

Premium Farm Stay

We are located on acreage at East Kurrajong in the Hawkesbury.

Needless to say we have more than enough space to allow our guests to have the time of their life.

Our Facilities

Purpose Built and Personal

Our facility features a large running area and 22 individual kennels. 8 of these are available to our furry guests year round with the remaining kennels housing our own and development dogs for government agencies.

We only house one dog per kennel which means we are able to maintain a low trainer to dog ratio and give every dog lots of time and personalised attention.

Limited kennels also ensure a calm, quality environment which allows us to give dogs of all temperaments a positive experience away from home.

Our guests have access to on and off leash running spaces, private walking tracks and our dam which provides refreshment for water loving dogs during the hotter summer months.

While it may improve your dog's overall demeanour it is not a complete training plan.

For customisable training towards set goals, behavioural modification or any training that is expected to transfer past our trainers and our environment, please refer to our 3 week board and train package!

Why Pick Us

Owned by Trainers, Run by Trainers

Personalised Care for Every Dog
Every dog in our care receives an individualised approach, with management and attention tailored to their unique temperament and personality. We take the time to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and are free from negative experiences in our environment.

Each stay includes proactive management in key areas such as:

Socialisation
Resource guarding
Barrier reactivity
Nuisance barking
Confidence building
Separation anxiety

We never turn a blind eye—if your dog needs additional support to fully enjoy their stay, we step in and assist wherever possible.

A Small, Dedicated Team
We are not a large, commercial facility. This allows us to provide a truly personalised service where your dog is cared for exclusively by the same experienced trainers throughout their entire stay. From booking and drop-off to daily updates and pick-up, you will always communicate directly with the people who are hands-on with your dog every day. Your dog is not simply attended to by standard kennel staff with little dog knowledge —it becomes part of our pack and benefits from the care of trainers with years of experience in behavioural modification and management.

A Home Environment with Round-the-Clock Care
Our guests stay in a purpose-built space on our property, ensuring their environment is managed and supervised 24/7. Someone is always present to respond to their needs—even in the middle of the night.

We dedicate our days to working with our guests, meeting their needs, and keeping their impulses in check. And when the sun goes down, we don’t simply close the door and walk away. We remain attentive, with an ear and an eye on your best friend, making sure every dog is safe, content, and well-rested.

Board and Train

we train your dog - then we train you

The Basics

All dogs are started on the basics. We assess the baseline they are at and start working with them based on what knowledge they present with when they first start working with us.

All training works towards goals you as the owner would like to achieve.

Dog Specific Training

Depending on the dog and training needed, we continue to concentrate on tailored aspects to help where needed.

And much more...

Board and Train Packages

How it Works

Packages and Return Options

To start working with you and your dog through our Board and Train Option we do require your dog to attend our 3 Week Board and Train Package.

This makes sure we can allow for the time to get to know your dog, let it settle in and start training towards your goals without overwhelming it.

It also allows us to start creating new patterns and habits through consistent and clear communication.

We would like everyone interested in this service to consider that shaping a dog's habits is very similar to shaping our own habits. One repetition will not allow a human to form a lifelong habit, we have to practice continuously to become good at something. Our canine companions are the same and therefore we have developed our training to suit different goals, breeds and temperaments.

The package includes a Handover and two Follow Ups. Additional Follow Ups can get added if needed. Handovers and Follow Ups are designed to train you as the handler of your dog to be able to maintain training in your home environment. This is the most vital puzzle piece for the training to be successful long term.

Once we have trained with your dog and you had the chance to learn how to maintain training we can continue to work with your dog through our standard rate.

This means if you need to board your dog with us for any reason for a minimum of four days we can keep up the consistency and train your dog further while you are away.

At this point it is viable for us to welcome your dog back for a shorter stay as your dog knows our environment, knows our routine and will be happy to pick up training where we left off.
