Paws Claws & Tails – Puppy School Sunshine Coast
Puppy School Sunshine Coast by Paws, Claws & Tails is a professionally run, reward-based training program designed to give puppies the best possible start in life. The program focuses on real-world skills that puppy owners genuinely need help with, rather than just tricks, helping puppies grow into calm, confident and well-mannered adult dogs.
This Puppy School is built around practical, everyday training that supports puppies at home, out in public, and in social settings — while also giving owners the confidence and knowledge to continue training long after classes finish.
The course is 4 weeks long.
Why This Puppy School Is Different
Unlike many traditional puppy classes, Puppy School Sunshine Coast places a strong emphasis on real-life behaviours and emotional development. Training is structured to build confidence, resilience and focus, while preventing common problem behaviours before they become ingrained.
The program is led by an experienced Sunshine Coast puppy trainer who has worked with hundreds of puppies, using calm, force-free, reward-based methods that strengthen the bond between puppy and owner. Training is clear, supportive and tailored to suit both the puppy and the family.
Who Puppy School Is Designed For
Puppy School Sunshine Coast is suitable for:
- First-time puppy owners wanting expert guidance and reassurance
- Families wanting to prevent unwanted behaviours early
- Owners looking for structured, evidence-based training
- Puppies needing help with confidence, focus and social skills
- Anyone wanting practical skills they can use in everyday life
The program is ideal for puppies in their early developmental stages, when learning is fastest and habits are easiest to shape.
What Puppies and Owners Learn
The Puppy School program covers a wide range of essential skills, including:
- Safe, controlled puppy socialisation
- Foundation obedience cues such as sit, stay, down and recall
- Loose-lead walking from an early age
- Calm behaviour around distractions
- Confidence building and resilience
- Handling and grooming preparation (including nails and body handling)
- Impulse control and settling skills
- Understanding puppy behaviour and body language
- How to reduce reliance on treats while maintaining engagement
- Creating balanced routines for rest, play and training
Each session includes clear explanations and practical exercises, with guidance on how to continue training at home between classes.
Small Group Classes for Better Results
Classes are intentionally kept small, with a maximum of five puppies per group. This allows each puppy and owner to receive personalised attention and ensures learning remains calm, focused and effective.
Small group sizes also support better socialisation, helping puppies learn appropriate interactions without becoming overwhelmed.
Flexible Training Options
In addition to group Puppy School classes, Paws, Claws & Tails also offers one-on-one puppy training sessions. These private sessions are ideal for puppies who need individual support, owners with specific goals, or families who prefer training in their own home or a quieter environment.

Clients frequently highlight:
- Clear, practical guidance
