About the Business
Welcome to The Gentle Modern School of Dog Training, located at 41-49 Bawtree Road in Leopold, Australia. As an establishment and point of interest, our institution is dedicated to teaching both dogs and handlers in a kind and positive manner.
Our aim is to help you have fun and achieve success when training your dog using The Gentle Modern Method of Dog Training™. This method was developed by the late David Weston in the early 1970s, making him a pioneer of dog training using positive reinforcement in Australia. He was also the first person to train and socialize dogs from as young as 8 weeks old, truly ahead of his time. David's passion was for everyone to train their dogs in a kind, gentle, modern, and effective way.
Today, David's Gentle Modern School of Dog Training is run by his wife, Ruth, on the beautiful Bellarine Peninsula, as well as by Amanda in Melbourne. Our instructors are all experienced dog trainers and members of The Kintala Dog Club Association Inc., formerly known as the Gentle Dog Trainers Association Inc. Rest assured, our school is a registered animal business under State Government legislation.
We take pride in the positive feedback we receive from our clients. Kate B. expressed her thanks for the comprehensive help and training her dog Hugo received in a safe and fun environment, which has already resulted in a reduction in barking. Cath Beaumont shared her gratitude for the confidence she gained in training her dog Annie. These testimonials highlight the effectiveness of our methods and the satisfaction our clients experience.
At The Gentle Modern School of Dog Training, we understand that your dog is with you for the long haul. We would be honored to accompany you on this journey. Work with us and establish a relationship where we can share triumphs and challenges together.

Reviews
"My kelpie Remi and I have learnt so many techniques from Ruth which give me a greater connection and clear communication with my rescue dog. Ruth is so experienced and we very much enjoyed our lessons as well as reading Ruth's books. Brilliant and highly recommended."
"Ruth Weston assisted me with establishing ground rules with a largish 7 year old adopted dog. Prior to that, some years before, she did the same with a two year old dog that was running me ragged. My praise and thanks are given effusively."
"I have found Ruth very helpful. You know immediately upon meeting her that she understands dog behaviour. Her positive gentle approach to training has helped my dog to develop her confidence and made her a much happier dog."
"Ruth is a fantastic trainer and the kind of person you like straight away. Just had my first lesson, she was great with my puppy. A natural with my 2 year old daughter and made the lesson easy and enjoyable. I really like her. Feel lucky I found her so close to where I live. Km feeling more confident about having a happy well behaved puppy and dog."
