About me
Cheeky Pup! Dog Training & Enrichment Services was established in June 2008 by Dorothy Smith, providing private in-home training and behavioural modification services to people living in the Western Suburbs of Sydney. In August 2008 Cheeky Pup started running puppy preschools at the Woodstock Animal Hospital, and in January 2009 started providing puppy preschools in other areas. As well as private animal training and puppy preschools, we now also run Canine Kindys, general obedience training groups, and a series of other classes for advanced training of dogs in obedience and in groundwork/flatwork for agility.
Dorothy has a BA(Hons) from the University of Sydney, and a Cert IV Companion Animal Services from Richmond TAFE.
She is a full member the Association of Pet Dog Trainers Australia Inc, and has an ongoing commitment to continued professional education by attending professional seminars and courses , and keeping up to date with professional journals and international research in the fields of ethology and animal training.
Dorothy's special areas of interest are dog aggression and dog timidity, and she enjoys putting her Shih Tzus through their agility paces.
Dorothy has also completed a certificate in grooming - handy with 6 little dogs to look after!
