ABOUT US
New Zealand faces a significant issue with homeless dogs, many of whom end up in pounds, with rescue organizations, in temporary homes that can't provide long-term care or in the worst cases, euthanized.
Top Dog Training was created to give these dogs a chance at a better life through comprehensive training and rehabilitation. Our mission is to help them find a place where they can truly thrive.
One dog that embodies this mission is Mila (pictured on the left). When we first brought her into our lives, she was reactive and had been passed over by many potential adopters due to her behavioral challenges. With patience, consistent training, and a lot of love, Mila blossomed into a well-mannered dog capable of fitting into any home. Her transformation was a turning point for me—it made me realize that when dogs are given the right tools to connect with people and manage their behaviors, their chances of being rehomed improve drastically. That’s why Top Dog Training exists.
We believe that every dog has the potential to be a loving companion. There are no "bad" dogs—only ones who need understanding. Our goal is to help people see that, so these dogs can experience the love and care they deserve, and live the fulfilling lives they were meant to have.

"I’m so glad I found Liam at Top Dog! In just a few weeks, we’ve already seen progress with our newly adopted anxious dog both on walks and at home. Liam teaches easy tools to use and understand. It’s also useful that he comes to you and trains in your normal environment. I have tried other trainers locally and he is by far the best"
