About The Presenter

Hi, I’m Sarah Forge. You may remember me from educational presentations at Councils, APDT and PPG such as Working Collaboratively, To get a dog or not to get a dog, Networking opportunities & Do I just put it in cheese?

If you haven’t come across me at all before, here’s a little bit more info: I’m a qualified professional canine behaviour consultant based in Western Sydney. I’ve got years of experience and continuing education behind me, beyond my nationally recognised Certificate IV in Companion Animal Services. Through my business Miss Behaviour Dog Training Services, I offer in home training and behaviour modification for those who need them when referred by their Vet or Behaviour Vet. Although. I have a primary focus on my specialist puppy training classes as preventing problems or mitigating them early is easier than fixing them later.

A self-described dog nerd, I’m passionate about welfare and responsible pet ownership, dedicated to making a difference to the lives of all pet dogs everywhere. I’ve got three Australian Cattle Dogs of my own, but also enjoy training other species such as chicken and goats!

I volunteer as the Vice President of the Pet Professional Guild Australia (PPGA) and am Secretary of the Australian Cattle Dog Society of NSW Inc in my spare time. Did I mention I love dogs?
