SYDNEY - AussieJournal -- As apartment living becomes the norm for more Australians, dogs are facing a unique set of behavioural challenges, with anxiety, leash reactivity, and noise sensitivity topping the list. Domineque Hone, a Delta-certified dog trainer based in Bondi and founder of The Dog Behavioural Trainer, has seen a surge in demand for private, in-home training to address these complex issues.
"Dogs living in dense urban areas like Bondi and Surry Hills face constant stimulation – crowded sidewalks, loud traffic, and limited off-leash space," said Hone. "This can be overwhelming for dogs, especially those that missed out on early socialisation. I've had to develop specific training plans for dogs that only bark in the lobby or lunge at scooters on footpaths. These aren't 'bad' dogs – they're just overwhelmed."
Australia's pet ownership rate has hit record highs, with 65% of households now owning a dog, many in high-density areas like Sydney's Eastern Suburbs. This urban shift has created a new market for personalised, location-specific dog training, as owners seek help for their stressed-out, city-bound pets.

The demand for ethical, force-free training has also increased as owners become more aware of the long-term benefits of positive reinforcement. Hone, who has been featured on popular podcasts like Unleashed & Unhinged and Canine Caregivers, says this shift reflects a growing desire for humane, science-based training.
"Urban dogs need as much mental enrichment as they do physical exercise," said Hone. "Even simple things like teaching a dog to settle at a cafe or walk calmly on a busy street can transform their quality of life. My goal is to help these dogs thrive, not just survive, in the city."
Hone's training approach is designed to address the specific needs of urban dogs, with a focus on confidence-building, impulse control, and positive socialisation. Her services include private in-home consultations, online training, and personalised behavioural plans that cater to the unique challenges of city life.
