Our Method
How We Train
Aussies are smart, high-energy, and instinct-driven. They need training built for them not borrowed from a generic playbook.

Every technique is designed with the Aussie's natural instincts and drives in mind — not generic dog training repurposed for your breed.
Force-free methods
We use positive reinforcement and science-backed behavior modification — no corrections, no intimidation. Just clear communication and trust.

Short, focused sessions you can do at home with your own dog. Progress you can actually see — on walks, at the door, in public.

Meet the Trainer
Hi, I'm Andrea Bogle…
The Aussie Expert
I'm the founder of Happy Aussie and have been training animals since 2002 in zoos, aquariums, and for TV and movies!
I am a certified dog trainer with the Certification Council of Professional Dog Trainers, hold a Master of Science degree, and am currently a professor of animal science who teaches trainers and aspiring zoo professionals.
I specialize in Australian Shepherds and herding breeds because successful training begins with understanding the dog in front of you. By working with their natural instincts and individual needs, I help Aussie parents develop confident, well-mannered dogs who can thrive both at home and out in the world.
