Power Pooches 2 Van Der Haar Avenue, Berwick, Victoria 3806
About the Business
Welcome to Power Pooches, located at 2 Van Der Haar Avenue in Berwick, Australia. We are not your average dog training institution. Power Pooches is the result of a journey taken by Jake and Sasha, an ordinary guy and his extraordinary dog, who became family. Both Jake and Sasha struggled with anxiety issues, impulse control, and reactivity, and finding affordable and effective help was no easy task.
Determined to make a change, Jake embarked on a research crusade and enrolled in a Dog Care course. This led to further studies in Dog Training and Animal Care with a focus on Dog Psychology. Professional help was also sought, and with a combination of knowledge and support, Sasha started her journey towards becoming a confident and powerful pooch. Training Sasha gave Jake a purpose and taught him valuable life lessons such as patience and the importance of slowing down.
At Power Pooches, we welcome all dogs, regardless of their behavioral challenges. Whether your dog is reactive, anxious, nervous, an adult, older, a rescue, or a puppy, we are here to help. Over the past year, we have assisted over 130 dogs with basic training, obedience, anxiety issues, reactivity, and more. Additionally, we have educated over 200 humans on how to make simple changes in their dog's life to bring out the best in them.
What sets us apart is our unique approach. We are physically present with you during all sessions, offering personalized care and guidance. Our pricing system is straightforward, allowing you to choose the number of sessions that best suit your needs, and these sessions can be used for all our services. We also record the sessions so you can review what was learned at your convenience. We believe in including the whole family or friends in the training process and offer secure and private venues for sessions, as well as the option to come to your home.
Jake recognized the need for a new and innovative approach to dog training. We understand the growing concern surrounding anxiety in dogs and the detrimental effects of old training methods. Traditional classes may not be suitable for anxious dogs, which is why we provide individual care, patience, and flexibility to help them make positive changes. Our training focuses on mental stimulation, the importance of sleep, how noise affects dogs, interaction with children, breed characteristics, local laws, and more.
Our ultimate goal is to educate dog owners and empower them to make positive changes in their dog's life and their own. It is important to note that our services are not for everyone. We do not believe in using physical aversion methods, halti's, or negative cues, nor do we promote the concept of being a pack leader. Our approach revolves around positive rewards, education, and learning how to understand and communicate with your dog on a deeper level. However, our services require a level of commitment from you. Without your time and effort, you and your dog will not fully benefit from our services.
Join us at Power Pooches and embark on a transformative journey with your furry friend. Together, we can create a positive and fulfilling life for both you and your dog.

Reviews
"Jake has been great at helping us treat our dog's fears and anxiety, there has been a decrease in reactivity from the first session and keeps getting better. Jake is very insightful in how to read our dog better, setting her and us for success! Meetings are always positive, either one on one or with other dogs getting help. Thanks Jake and Sasha!"
"Jake is exceptional with our Alaskan Malamute. Experienced trainer and has made a huge positive impact on our dog. Highly recommend!!"
"Jake helped me adjust to my new cavoodle puppy “Ebony”who l found to be quite challenging at first! He taught me the commands l needed to make our time together more relaxing and our bonding more enjoyable and develop confidence. Ebony loved Jake and Sasha helped her learn some much needed good doggy manners. I would not hesitate to recommend training with Jake and Sasha"
"Jake is amazing with all the dogs. From puppies to oldies he’s like the dog whisperer His side kick Sasha ( a rescue) is also great at putting all the doggies in their place. He has taught me and my crazy JRT Bailey so many different ways to learn and all of them made fun so they don’t feel like learning and Bailey loves every minute. If you are having trouble with controlling your dog on walks, he/she is pulling on the leash, or if you’re a new puppy parent or have just rescued a dog and need some help with socialising Jake is the man to see. I have seen it and it works 100% Check out Power Pooches he comes to you on the first visit! You won’t be disappointed."
"Thanks Jake for your excellent help in getting me to overcome my nerves and anxiety. I think I am a great dog now and I think my human Mum thinks so too! Woof from Maisy!"
