'Experience makes the difference’

Get SMART Dogs is a partnership of four Accredited
Delta behavioural trainers based on Sydney's North Shore.

We are now in our 10th year and
have helped over a 1000 owners train their dogs.

	Karin Bridge Karin has competed with her own dogs in obedience, agility and dog dancing and is a popular speaker and writer on dog related issues. She is the training feature writer for the national ‘Dog’s Life’ magazine and has presented seminars to the Veterinary Nurses Council of Australia, The Delta Society, The Association of Pet Dog Trainers and various training clubs across the country. Karin is a Life Member of the NSW Animal Welfare League and Delta Society Australia and currently President of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers Australia.
	Hanne Moore Hanne has been involved in training puppies and adult dogs for pleasure and competition for longer than she cares to remember! Last year reached a benchmark achieved by very few trainers in Australia - reaching 2000 puppy bookings. For over ten years she was the in-house trainer for the large and prestigious Ku-ring-ai Veterinary Hospital and still runs puppy classes there. She was also instrumental in the development of the Canine Good Citizen Programme in Australia.
	Maureen Bishop Maureen Bishop is a champion of the shelter dog having been a volunteer trainer for many years at the AWL Ingleside shelter. Maureen seems to have a special rapport and patience for dogs who may have had a bad start in life and enjoys helping to put them back on the path to recovery. Maureen also specializes in trick training her two Aussie Shepherds who are able to push shopping trolleys, ride skateboards and play basketball to name just a few of their amazing tricks.
	Helen Frew Helen has competed in most avenues of dog sports but her passion lies in Tracking having trained three of her dogs to Tracking Championships. There’s nothing Helen doesn’t ’nose’ about dogs! Helen, like other members of S.M.A.R.T was also involved in the training of support dogs for the disabled.
