Puppy Socialisation Classes in North Brisbane
Puppy socialisation is one of the most important foundations you can give a young dog. The experiences your puppy has between 8 and 16 weeks shape their confidence, behaviour and emotional wellbeing for life. Intentional, positive exposure during this window helps prevent fear, anxiety and reactivity as they grow, setting them up to become calm, adaptable and well-mannered adults.
Our Brisbane puppy socialisation packages are designed to give your pup safe, structured opportunities to learn, explore and thrive during this crucial age, even when their vaccination schedule may not be completed yet.
What Your Puppy Will Experience
In these sessions, your puppy will be introduced to our two well-balanced, stable adult dogs, Oakley (our Golden Retriever girl) and Charlie (our Border Collie boy), who model appropriate canine communication and behaviour. Learning from other dogs is incredibly valuable for young pups, and these controlled interactions help them understand boundaries, play styles and social cues in a gentle and supportive way.
Every introduction is supervised and paced carefully to match your puppy’s confidence level, ensuring they feel safe while gaining real-world dog-to-dog skills. Alongside canine socialisation, your puppy will experience a wide range of environmental exposure and stimuli, including different sounds, surfaces, textures, handling exercises and short visits to safe new environments.
We maintain strict attention to your puppy’s partially completed vaccination schedule. We avoid high-risk areas and use controlled settings so your puppy can build resilience without compromising their health. Across the session packs, your pup will develop confidence, curiosity and essential life skills that will support them well into adulthood.

Professional, knowledgeable and delivers a fantastic service for anyone needing guidance with their fur-babies. My hubby and I have two 5 month Westies and needed some help with training. She took the time to explain, give tips and advice. Michaela went above and beyond with her time to make sure we had the necessary information to help us successfully manage our little munchkins. Thank you Michaela. Tracy, Jamie, Archie and Gem 🐶🐾Posted on Google Emma BurgessTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been feeling so overwhelmed with my new poodle puppy but Michaela has completely turned things around for me. She definitely has a way with dogs and has so many tips and tricks up her sleeves help me train him. She is well worth the investment and I would recommend her to anyone with a dog.Posted on Google Kiani BloyeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had Micheala from Charlie’s dog training & obedience come out yesterday to help with our 10-month-old puppy and I honestly can’t recommend her enough. She was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and took the time to really understand our dog and what we were struggling with. She explained everything in a way that made sense, gave us practical techniques we can actually stick to, and made us feel so much more confident moving forward. We saw a difference straight away, which was amazing. If you’re needing help with your dog, definitely reach out. You won’t regret it!Posted on Google Holly SpankeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing trainer!

Amazing training experience. Michaela gave me the tools to train my puppy. She was so knowledgeable. Couldn’t recommend her highly enough.Posted on Google Belinda MoncktonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an amazing experience with Charlie’s Dog Training & Obedience and couldn’t recommend them more highly. Our dog had been struggling with barking and reactivity on the lead, which was making walks really stressful, but the difference after just one session was incredible. They were so knowledgeable, patient, and easy to talk to. They took the time to explain why our dog was reacting the way he was, which made everything feel so much more manageable. The training techniques were simple, practical, and easy to apply in real-life situations — and best of all, they actually worked. We’ve already noticed a huge improvement in our dog’s behaviour on walks, and we feel so much more confident handling situations that used to feel overwhelming. It’s made such a positive difference for both us and our dog.Posted on Google Olivia ColleyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Michaela is an incredible dog trainer. She’s patient, knowledgeable, and has a real gift for understanding dogs and teaching owners in a clear, supportive way. My dog made noticeable progress quickly, and every session felt positive and purposeful. I couldn’t recommend her more.Posted on Google elizabeth PollardTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. George, our very excitable (and nervous) Labradoodle is two sessions into working with Michaela. She is wonderful! Professional, knowledgeable and also just a lovely person. She really knows her stuff and George is a happier, calmer boy already. Highly recommended! 5 stars!
