Watch The Transformations

These owners were exactly where you are right now — sceptical, exhausted, and ready to give up. Here is what happened next.

 
Artie & Pepper
From Anxious Night Walks to Calm Pub Pups

Once too reactive for daytime walks, these dachshunds can now confidently accompany their owners to pubs and cafes without incident.

 
Kovu
From 3 Years Unwalked to Off-Leash Freedom

After three years of severe leash reactivity, Kovu transformed into a calm, relaxed dog who now enjoys off-leash freedom at the beach.

 
Bailey
Reactive Rottweiler Who Injured His Owner — Transformed

Once a highly reactive Rottweiler who caused his owner cracked ribs and a broken finger, Bailey is now a calm, obedient companion.

 
Hunter
Told He'd Never Be OK Around Dogs — Proved Wrong

Once highly reactive and isolated, Hunter is now a calm companion, giving his owner the confidence to enjoy public spaces off-leash.

 
Rex
Reactive Dog Transformed into Obedient Off-Leash Companion

A highly reactive, uncontrollable dog learned to walk calmly off-leash and reliably recall past distractions, giving the owner his dog back.

 
Champ
Stress-Free Walks After Years of Reactivity and Avoidance

A severely reactive dog that couldn't walk past others now calmly ignores them, giving his owner confidence and stress-free walks.

 
Kevin
Anxious, Medicated Dachshund Transformed in Two Days

Kevin, a highly reactive and medicated dachshund, transformed into a calm, self-correcting dog able to enjoy off-leash beach days after just two days.

 
George
Zero Recall, Hit by a Car — Now Walks Off-Leash Calmly

George went from having zero recall and being hit by a car to calmly walking with other dogs and enjoying off-leash beach trips.

 
Bjorn
Reactive German Shepherd Transformed into Off-Leash Pro

Bjorn went from a reactive, scavenging dog who couldn't be trusted off-leash to an obedient companion who listens and walks calmly.

 
Hunter
Told He'd Never Improve — Now Relaxed Off-Leash

Hunter, a highly reactive German Shepherd, went from constant avoidance to calmly relaxing off-leash at parks and pubs.

Written Reviews

In Their Own Words

Taken directly from our graduates. Not a single word has been changed.

★★★★★
"I was initially nervous about e-collar training, but working with Adam completely put me at ease. The results have been incredible. My dog now has so much more freedom and can be off-lead in places I never thought possible."
★★★★★
"I cannot recommend Adam highly enough! After just one session with my 2-year-old Rottweiler Clover, the change was undeniable. From heavy reactivity toward other dogs and people to a completely different dog."
★★★★★
"Perth Canine Academy is the best in the biz! Completely transformed in under 2 months. No more leash pulling, great recall, and we are now 2 anxiety-free dog owners. Couldn't recommend Adam enough."
★★★★★
"Working with Adam has been an absolute game changer for our family. Before training, walks were stressful and managing our dog around our young kids felt overwhelming. Now it's completely different — harmony restored."
★★★★★
"We contacted Perth Canine Academy to help with Shadow, focusing on safe living with our newborn. Before training, Shadow was whining and clearly unsettled. Now our whole family can live happily together."
★★★★★
"Adam's training has been life-changing. My dog went from pulling constantly and reacting to everything, to walking calmly beside me. The difference in our daily life is extraordinary. Absolutely worth every cent."

About The Bootcamp

Why PCA Reviews
Look Different

Most dog training reviews you will find online are written after a handful of weekly sessions where the dog performed well in a controlled environment. Perth Canine Academy reviews are different because the programme itself is different.

The 5-day intensive bootcamp puts you and your dog through real-world situations — busy parks, pubs, off-lead fields, and unpredictable public spaces — every single day for five consecutive days. The results compound daily rather than being reset every seven days.

Perth Canine Academy was founded by Adam and is part of the Yorkshire Canine Academy network — a method developed and refined across hundreds of bootcamps in the UK, Europe, and now Australia. The facility is based in Bibra Lake, Perth, and draws clients from across Western Australia, interstate, and internationally.

Owners regularly travel from regional WA, Queensland, Victoria, and New Zealand — because when nothing else has worked, people are willing to travel.

The Last Trainer
You Will Ever Need

If you complete all 5 days of the intensive programme and do not see significant improvements in your dog's behaviour, Perth Canine Academy will refund your investment in full. If your dog regresses within six months and you have followed the plan, you will also receive a refund. No caveats, no small print. That is how certain we are that this will work for you.

FAQ

Questions People Ask
Before Booking

Are Perth Canine Academy reviews genuine?
Yes. Perth Canine Academy holds a 5.0/5 rating from 41 verified Google reviews. Every testimonial on this page comes from a real graduate of the 5-day intensive bootcamp. No reviews have been edited, incentivised, or fabricated.
I have tried other trainers and it did not work. Why will this be different?
Most trainers address the symptoms — the barking, the lunging — without addressing the root cause of reactivity. The 5-day intensive format means your dog is immersed in real-world situations every single day, with you training alongside them. The results compound daily rather than being reset every seven days.
My dog has bitten before. Can they still do the bootcamp?
In most cases, yes. Adam will assess your dog's specific situation during the free 30-minute call and will only take you on if he is genuinely confident he can help. Dogs with bite histories are not automatically excluded.
My dog is old, a rescue, or a difficult breed. Does that matter?
Not at all. Perth Canine Academy works with dogs of all ages, breeds, and severity levels. Many of the most successful bootcamp graduates are rescue dogs with unknown histories.
How does the guarantee work?
If you complete all 5 days and do not see significant improvements, Perth Canine Academy will refund your investment in full. Additionally, if your dog regresses within six months and you have followed the plan, you will also receive a refund. No caveats, no small print.
Can I come from interstate or internationally?
Absolutely. The bootcamp is based in Bibra Lake, Perth, Western Australia, and regularly welcomes clients from regional WA, Queensland, Victoria, and New Zealand. Adam can help you plan the logistics during your free assessment call.
Why is a 5-day bootcamp better than weekly training sessions?
Weekly sessions give your dog seven days between each training session to practise the wrong habits. The 5-day intensive format means the learning compounds every single day — each session builds directly on the last. There is no regression between sessions because there is no gap between sessions.
What methods does Perth Canine Academy use?
Perth Canine Academy uses a balanced training approach that includes e-collars and prong collars where appropriate. Many clients arrive sceptical about these tools and leave understanding why they work. The goal is always a dog with more freedom, not less.
