We are EcoK9 Consulting
Experienced, Nationally Certified Trainers
Based on the Atherton Tablelands, EcoK9 Consulting provides a range of working dog training services to Cairns and surrounded areas in North Queensland. These include: training and deployment of conservation detection dogs, planning and training for self-train assistance and therapy dogs; and best practice early socialisation plans for new puppies based on the latest scientific research.
Who We Are
EcoK9 Consulting was founded by our lead trainer, a nationally certified dog trainer, with a PhD in animal ecology/behaviour who works in the Assistance Dog industry; as well as on various conservation detection dog programs in North Queensland. We have extensive experience working on Wind Farms.
We strive to support dog owners to better understand their dogs and their needs to create a strong bond 'bluetooth connection' based on understanding, from when puppy arrives in the home, to obedience and service based tasks (where required). We additionally work with clients to develop conservation detection dog programs in the region and have extensive skills in ecology and measuring and monitoring wildlife populations in Northern Australia.
