FREE BARK STOPPER SEMINARS

Does your pooch have a barking problem?

Too much barking can make neighbours cranky, and is often a sign that your pooch is bored, lonely or needs to get out a bit more.

Pets owners are responsible for their dog’s behaviour and should ensure they are safe, healthy and well behaved.

Council's Animal Management team is leading the way in education.

You are invited to attend a free Bark Stopper seminar, hosted by animal behaviour expert, Dr Cam Day.

Learn about:

why your dog is barking

how to identify your dog’s barking triggers
