Dog Behaviour Training Melbourne
Real Behaviour Change Starts Beneath the Surface
Barking, pulling, anxiety and aggression are not training problems.
They are behaviour problems.
And behaviour doesn’t change through commands alone.
Rod was AMAZING (which is an understatement). Super kind and friendly which made us feel relaxed instantly. He was professional and patient with a gentle approach. ★★★★★ Jessica Cupid – Melbourne
Welcome To SitDropStay Dog Behaviour Training Melbourne!
At SitDropStay Melbourne, we specialise in resolving behaviour at the root — creating calm, stable and balanced dogs through clarity, structure and relationship.
Most dog owners are told they need more training.
More commands. More repetition. More control.
But many dogs we work with have already been trained.
And the behaviour is still there.
Dogs don’t just respond to what you do.
They respond to:
Your energy
Your clarity
Your consistency
Your leadership
When these are unclear or unstable, behaviour problems emerge.
We specialise in:
Dog aggression (people or dogs)
Reactivity on walks
Anxiety and nervous behaviour
Over-arousal and lack of control
Dogs that don’t respond despite previous training
- Relationship issues
Our Approach
We don’t rely on:
Treat dependency
Repetitive drills
Surface-level obedience
Instead, we focus on:
Creating calm, stable state of mind
Clear direction and boundaries
Strengthening your relationship with your dog
Helping your dog feel safe enough to let go of unwanted behaviours
This is why many of our clients come to us after other training hasn’t worked.
Because we are not just training behaviour.
We are changing the conditions that create it.
Who Is This For?
This Is For You If:
Your dog has ongoing or complex behaviour issues
You’ve tried training without success
Your dog’s behaviour is affecting your life
You want deeper, lasting change

Rod Sinclair
My parents would never let me have a dog, despite me asking again and again. Then one day, at 10 years of age, I came home with a puppy, determined to care for him myself, and the rest is history.
In a strange twist of fate, my father became a senior officer of the Victorian Police Dog Squad; time spent with these animals nurtured what would become a lifelong passion and affinity for dogs.
Life has taken me on many adventures and career paths both in Australia and internationally, including several years working as a massage therapist in conjunction with a renowned doctor of natural therapies, when I found a natural ability for communicating with a wide variety of people on intellectual, emotional and spiritual levels.
I’ve always felt that you need to have faith in your journey. Fortunately, my journey bought me to George, who has given me the opportunity to do what I love everyday – help people and their dogs.
