What our clients think of our Training...
Where’s Wally
…that was the $10,000,000 question..our adopted Labradoodle Wally had issues getting around the house… he was always getting “stuck” unable to move down hallways and stairways without us assisting him.. after consultanting our vet who was unable to offer any medical advice.
A friend recommended Leah, as they’d had amazing result with their dog. We made an appointment with Leah, who came to our home for a one on one with Wally.
After listening to us and observing Wally, Leah suggested that it may be a tactile issue and recommended either “toe grips” or hall runner carpet.. we opted for some cheap hall runners and within 2 -3 days Wally was making great progress and moving more freely around the house unassisted.
Leah was prompt, friendly, courteous and professional and we have no hesitation in recommending her and Jordan Dog Training. Thank you Leah!

An amazing understanding of dogs…
I have had the pleasure of attending Justin’s puppy school classes recently as well as personal interaction with him training my older Labrador, who has had some behavioural problems at the local dog park.
Justin was able to show me how to correct these behavioural problems and is always willing to help out as any further issues arise. I highly recommend Justin for his professionalism, knowledge, patience and deep love of dogs.
He has an amazing understanding of dogs and is extremely passionate in educating people to be responsible dog owners and having a better understanding of their behaviours for a happy and healthy life.

My dog’s life is so much better now
Justin, I want to sincerely thank you for all you have done in helping me to understand my dog and correct her inappropriate behaviours. No longer am I dragged down the street from one smell to the next, or jumped all over every time I return home. She has always been my best friend, but she used to be that annoying friend who you put up with because you love them.
Now, she’s a pleasure for me to have in the house, in the car, and out and about. She gets to enjoy my company more often as I can take her places that would have been unthinkable before. Before I was referred to you, I tried searching the Internet for tips; I asked friends for advice; finally, I sat my dog down and had a serious chat with her about her behaviour. None of these things helped.
Your advice was simple, it made sense, and it wasn’t harsh or unkind to the dog. Your training methods were like a revelation, and my dog’s life is so much better now that her needs are being understood and met. I would not hesitate to recommend you to anybody having problems with their dog. I’m sure my dog recommends you to all her friends too!
Your consultation was the best investment in my dog’s training…
Following our In-home consultation a few months ago, I am so pleased with the results that I wanted to extend my utmost thanks.
My previously barky, jumpy, leash-straining dog is now demonstrating beautiful house manners and actually paying attention to what I want when we go for walks. We had been to obedience classes previously to try and learn some leash manners and help with our other behavioural issues, but they didn’t really teach us how to communicate effectively with our dog. It helped a little bit with walking her – they sold us a head halter – but that was a short-term solution, using just one tool, whereas you gave us the full toolbox! I never would have thought I would be able to ask her to walk to heel without a pocket full of tasty treats. Now, I would expect nothing less. She has graduated off the head halter onto a regular collar and I can even walk her off leash using just my voice to keep her in heel. A far cry from the dog who didn’t seem to realise that I was even along on the walk, let alone in control of it.
The best part about it is that now she is so lovely to walk, we take her out more often and she is a calmer, happier dog when she has had proper exercise and stimulation. After a single consultation with you, we learnt how to communicate which behaviours were unacceptable, gently but effectively. She responded so quickly once she understood what was being asked of her. Your practical suggestions were tailored to our home environment and also helped us to identify the causes for some of her more special behaviour.
I would consider your consultation to be the best investment in my dog’s training to get life-long results and support if needed, and saved us from a future of frustration, anger, and embarrassment at our dog’s unruly behaviour. We now get comments from strangers about how well behaved she is, and I don’t hesitate to recommend you at every opportunity.
We now have a well behaved and happy dog…
Just had to let you know that after your visit to our home to help us with “Archie” we have followed the advice you gave us after you had spent time talking with us and observing Archie’s problem with barking and his sometimes annoying behaviour to friends visiting us.
Archie responded almost immediately to you and within a very short time he was happy to follow your commands. We have done our best to follow your advice and now have a well behaved and happy dog.
Your sensible, firm but gentle approach showed us your great experience and love of animals. We would recommend you to anyone. Thank you so much!

I am the one reaping the rewards…
Justin Jordan has been working with me and my Siberian Huskies to assist me in managing their behaviour and allowing me to have a better relationship with them. My male dog is very dominant and through Justin’s knowledge, skill and gentle ways I am learning how to handle him and actually enjoy walking him.
I love the fact that the techniques used are those of encouragement and reward. The dogs are encouraged and I am the one reaping the rewards. Justin has been at all times professional and friendly and I am confident in the knowledge that he is only a phone call away for advice. I cannot recommend Justin highly enough.
At the end of the day, I know it is not so much about training the dogs but training the humans and Justin is very adept at that as well. Thank you Justin for all your sound knowledge and advice.

You saw the potential and convinced us to persevere…
This note is to express our thanks and appreciation for the way in which you helped us with Gus. When your first dog is a 56kg, four year old, male Rottweiler, without any social, behavioural or obedience training, it is always going to be a tough ask; when the dog is thought to have a questionable temperament it is going to be even more difficult.
We took Gus when it became apparent that his original owners could not provide the care and attention he needed. After trying unsuccessfully for several months to find him a home we eventually came to the conclusion that we loved him and decided to keep him ourselves. That presented another range of problems as we lived in a small unit that did not allow pets. After boarding Gus with my mother, he was too boisterous for her, then with my brother, whose own dog had just undergone a knee reconstruction, we eventually located a home that suited all of us. We took responsibility for Gus some six months ago and have experienced a number of challenges. Boisterous is a nice way of saying he was practically uncontrollable. Gus demonstrated every characteristic and behaviour that made it extremely difficult for anyone to want to take him.
Yet despite this, you saw the potential in him and convinced us to persevere. Thank you! Every day we are seeing improvements in Gus that are making it worthwhile. The advice, training and assistance you have provided ensured we learned the necessary skills to enable productive communication that improved not only our lives but Gus’ immeasurably. We would not hesitate to recommend you and your methods to anyone seeking to improve the relationship they have with their dog. Again, please accept our sincere thanks.

We have our power back…
We have recently received the service of Justin Jordan. We have two dogs, both with very different natures and very different behaviour problems. We had dogs we couldn’t walk, one who challenged our authority constantly and both were excitable and out of control when visitors came.
Justin explained to us what we were doing wrong and how dogs thinking is different to ours. We stuck to the new rules Justin laid out and noticed a change almost immediately. After two visits, we feel we are in control now, and not them. We have our power back. We know controlling their behaviour will be an ongoing process but now we have the tools to deal with them.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend your services to anyone with a problem dog. Thank you Justin.
Justin has been extremely supportive and helpful…
Justin Jordan has been recently assisting my husband and I with our poodle’s separation anxiety problem. After our neighbour’s informed us that our dog became extremely distressed (i.e. crying and howling) in our absence, we availed ourselves of Justin’s services.
Through his guidance we were able to learn gentle techniques that have helped us to address our dog’s anxiety. We have seen consistent improvement in our dog’s ability to cope with our absence and have greatly appreciated Justin’s help with this problem. Justin has been extremely supportive and helpful at a time that was very upsetting and stressful for our family and we are so grateful that we can now leave the house with confidence, knowing that our dog is much happier.
Thank you Justin for your assistance and support. With your help we are well on the way to resolving what we had felt was a hopeless situation.

Your compassionate ‘whispering’ technique really does work…
We are both closer to 70 than 50. Having taken (by family default) a young cattle dog (the formerly ignored and boisterous Heidi) out of compassion rather than want of companionship, life has not been in our control!
Since Heidi arrived, we have become reclusive. Our friends, relatives and grandchildren no longer wish to visit. Our parkside walks lonely, as people deliberately walk the other way or take the long way round. Not because Heidi is vicious but because of her ‘pack leader’ mentality and over abundance of energy and enthusiasm. Jumping up, nipping, out of control behaviour, etc.
Justin, thank you. In just two lessons, Heidi is becoming more socially acceptable and easier to handle. You have been so generous with your time, clear in your approach, confident in your assessment and with a bottom line, non aggressive training method that is delivering better animal ownership rewards from the first time we met.
Your compassionate ‘whispering’ technique really does work. We are increasingly confident that our circle of friends will return to our ambit, including, and most importantly, our grandchildren (under 10’s). Why? Because of your guidance, and the combined confidence of professionalism and better partnership with our dog. Many thanks, and may your business prosper.

You taught my master some discipline…!
Hi my name is Ellie and I’m a 2 year old stumpy tail cattle dog. I’ve been taking my master to doggy school for nearly 2 years hoping that he would learn some discipline… he’s not real bright but we’re getting there. Each week he gets a little big better at doing as he’s told and I’ve been teaching him some tricks & we’re both doing well & learning lots. I’m doing a lot better than my master but after all I’m a girl!!! I think my master will do OK after the 3 weeks but Jordan Dog Training lets us go as much as we want without any extra charge. I hope he does alright, he’s not a bad fella. Thanks for all your help!

Barking dog problem solved
Thank you so much for your help with my border collie, Sammy. Her barking had been driving my neighbours up the wall ever since we moved, and I’m sure they would have complained to the Council if you hadn’t helped me to sort it out so quickly.
You gave me simple, effective advice and you were available when I needed that little bit of extra guidance. I really appreciated you getting back to me so quickly. You were the utmost professional in your work and I was so impressed with your depth of knowledge and experience. I was amazed at how Sammy responded to you; you obviously have a way with dogs. To me, you truly are the dog whisperer!
I won’t hesitate to recommend you to others who are struggling with various doggy problems.

Giving me back my mojo
Why Justin? Well, quite simply, because he cares….and I mean really cares, about the fur-babies under his care.
Justin came to us via recommendation from a dear friend Kelly, when we rehomed an adult Dalmatian boy who had, quite unexpectedly, entered our lives immediately after the death of my husband. I doubted myself, and because of that I doubted my gorgeous dog and my ability to keep him.
Justin helped in so so many ways, not just the 1:1 training, which was done with gentleness and confidence, but with the ongoing, constant support. Mr Mojo literally changed overnight, and Justin continues to support via messages and calls, and has done so through the addition of a second spotty dog to our family. Without the guidance, support and kind reassurance I would not have the two amazing Dalmatians (that are currently resting at me feet) as my constant companions in my life and all I do.
Mr Mojo, and also Abby, have become the foundation of a project that I am currently working on to help others hep themselves, my journey with them allows me to show others that sometimes you need to look at all aspects of your life to find balance. In short JJ, you gave me back my mojo and showed me the amazing love that I have for Mr Mojo is mutual. Both of my dogs train every day and are good members of the canine community… without JJ I could not have done it! Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

We refer all our difficult behaviour problems to Justin
As a vet nurse we refer all our difficult behaviour problems to Justin. Our clients come back totally satisfied. After 14 years of working in conjunction with Justin and our clients, I couldn’t be happier or give a higher recommendation to anyone in the dog behaviour industry!
The time you give to rescue dogs is so valuable
Thank you Justin for your advice yesterday for my foster dog Jasper. I really appreciated your willingness to listen to Jasper’s story, and your reassurance! Your passion for rescue dogs and the time you give to rescues is so valuable. Thank you! I continue to recommend you to clients on a regular basis as “this is the dog behaviourist that I have personally used, and he is fantastic!” and I really mean it!
Who are you going to call…? Jordan Dog Training!
Justin Jordan saved our sanity. Our soft hearts led us to acquire an abused 2 year old female rottie who was more than we could handle. She managed to destroy several blinds, furniture, gyprock walls and china in two weeks. Having had no previous experience with mistreated dogs our local vet highly recommended Justin for dogs with behaviour problems.
Upon calling Justin, we were very pleased with his professional and positive manner. When he arrived we were flabbergasted by his alpha pack leader presence and subsequently, the submission that our unruly dog displayed towards him. We knew there was hope for us yet and that we hadn’t made a mistake giving her a home. During the consultation, Justin assured us that we did the right thing by recognising our limitations and contacting him before she became worse. Justin did an assessment of our previous behaviour management and taught us top dog leadership techniques that bought equilibrium back to the household, not to mention sanity. It has been hard work but extremely rewarding. We have confidence and self assurance that we can manage rescue dogs.
Justin has been extremely helpful, professional and empathetic. His experience has made us feel secure and confident that we will be able to manage our dog’s behaviour. Justin said we could contact him with any further questions. We called him and asked for help with our second rescue dog. We would recommend Justin to anyone who needs help with the smallest or biggest doggie problem.
Dog walks are now a pleasure instead of an ordeal
Justin, we really enjoyed our session with you last week. It was enormously helpful, and we learnt a lot. Taking Ninja for a walk is now a pleasure instead of an ordeal, and we have noticed a huge difference in those other issues as well!

After following your page I have become inspired
I just wanted to share my story with you, as it’s after following your page I have become inspired.
Over the past 2 weeks I have become motivated to walk our bull mastiff, great dane cross every day. He’s 4 and a half, almost 80kg (almost twice my weight), never been around other dogs. He has always put on quite a performance whenever he sees another dog, throwing himself on the ground and clawing at whatever I was walking him with, once even managing to claw off his halti collar.
I got an easy walk harness and started out in the backyard, progressed to the unfenced frontyard and then to the street up and down outside our house slowly going further in each direction. In under 2 weeks we are walking a half hour loop around a local bike track and instead of a tug of war when we see dogs he’s down graded to a whimper when he starts to get excited and is firmly told no.
I’m so proud of my boy and I know with dedication and persistence he will only get better and we are both so much happier and content after our afternoon walks.
My dogs calmed down immediately
It’s been possibly a year or so since you saw my two dogs Abby and Bella. While they love each other dearly, they would get into some fights at times if play time got too rough or Abby was in a bad mood. I believed you called this sibling rivalry. It was heartbreaking to see my two beautiful babies get in to fights when I knew they loved each other.
I was more than eager for your assistance and was greatly assured when you mentioned no harsh methods in your training. The day you walked in our house I remember being in shock. My two very excited girls walked in the door to meet you and gently said hello. Next thing I noticed they were so completely calm and content lying on the floor near you and I. To see them so calm and what felt like so peaceful around a stranger had me gobsmacked. I mean, they’ve always loved people but you just brought a presence with you that is truly remarkable. From then, I definitely trusted in you and desired to have that same sort of energy. I knew and was willing to accept that it was me that was most of the problem and was willing to put in the work to get the best outcome for my girls.
I’m proud to say that since your visit they rarely ever get in to fights anymore. And even if they do on the rare occasion, they manage to sort themselves out very quickly without me intervening! They also get over it very quickly. My older dog used to hold resentment to the other one for quite some time after I had pulled them apart but now it’s as if nothing happened after! I can’t thank you enough for your commitment to us and the reassurance and confidence you brought to our family.
There have been some other smaller issues along the way that you have always been so kind to speak to me about over the phone and give advice for. Your service did not end when you left our house and I think that is a true testimony for your commitment to ensuring a truly happy outcome and life for our loved ones. So thank you.
Within 30 minutes we had a truly transformed dog
Simply amazing! We have over the years engaged the services of two different dog trainers to help us to be able to walk our 5-year-old Golden Retriever without being dragged down the street. On both occasions we had little to no success and were told by the last trainer that the only way to fix our dog (against our better judgment) was to use a check chain on him. Over a few training sessions with this trainer this still wasn’t working, it only seemed to choke our poor dog. We had now got to the stage that the only outings we could take him on were for drives in the car to the local dog park.
Recently at our wits end, and on our vet’s recommendation (and also on a friends recommendation), we contacted Justin – within 30 minutes we had a truly transformed dog that was walking around our neighbourhood on a loose lead beside us. Simple and easy techniques that not only we understood and agreed with but that our dog obviously understood and responded to.
We now have one of those well behaved dogs that you see people out walking daily who are actually enjoying the company of their dog. Our whole family thanks you!
The dog and cat are best friends
I had someone wanting to adopt a cat and they were worried about how their dog would go accepting the fur sibling. On my advice they called Justin, who took the time to go through everything with them. I recently went and visited and now the dog and cat are best of friends. Love your work Justin.

Justin helps our foster dogs
Today we had the pleasure of working with top dog trainer Justin Jordan from Jordan Dog Training. Justin has been helping people and dogs and rescue groups in the Brisbane area for many many years.
His expert advice and generous nature have helped many of our dogs foster into their forever homes. Today he helped Kaidee. Kaidee needed help with confidence and we needed help with leadership and walking of such a large dog. Together, along with foster mum, everything came together and Kaidee is a relaxed and happy camper.

I gained confidence with my dog
Thank you so much for all your help, support and guidance. Justin, I really can not thank you enough!
A little while ago my dog started showing signs of aggression. The issue became out of control when one day he attacked someone who came to the house. He is a 70kg dog. It was terrifying. I completely lost my confidence in myself and my dog. I was fearful to have anyone come to the home. I was even fearful to take him out of the house and enjoy all the activities that I loved sharing with him the most, like walking on the beach, activities that we had previously done on a daily basis together.
After just one in home session Justin completed transformed my situation. He was able to guide me in the right direction and highlight areas where I had been going wrong – it was fantastic! From the moment he walked into the room with my dog, I felt completely at ease. Now I feel confident and know that I have learnt the skills required to handle any situation. Jordan Training Services were not only profession, ethical and humane but the results far exceeded any of my expectations. Thank you very much!

The BEST thing you could possibly do for your dog!
Training with Jordan Dog Training is the BEST thing you could possibly do for your dog. I had an in-home visit with Justin to address some behaviour issues with my dog. One of the issues was that she was becoming reactive to visitors at home and also her leash manners were non-existent. Justin’s methods were gentle and natural, there was no shouting, no shock collars, no spray bottles and no penny jars (all of which had been suggested to me previously), just calm assertive leadership.
Justin spent two hours with me, covering every aspect from nutrition, exercise, enrichment and establishing boundaries around the home. It was almost information overload, but the way he presented it was practical and supportive. My dog absolutely LOVES Justin and her behaviour – she’s like a different dog! From the very first phone call through to the follow-up support, Justin has always been the utmost professional, friendly and willing to help. He has never asked for another cent but has always been available to ensure that I was happy with the outcomes of our training.

Justin knows the art of understanding dogs
A 2 ½ year old Rottweiler urgently need a loving home. She had been badly treat by a previous owner and had security issues. Our home was her fourth home in her short life. She was an alpha female determined to dominate the household. Difficult to manage and unruly. No training, no manners and little contact with people and she did not like men. She had managed in few days to destroy blinds, doors and walls. I got Justin in to help us train the dog. In actual fact – he came to train us to be good leaders for her. Justin was amazing and had her doing what he wanted her to in the first few minutes.
We have never looked back and are forever thankful to Justin for teaching us the art of understanding language of dogs.
We have a precious Rottweiler who we love and she loves us. Highly recommend Justin and his team. Wonderful caring people.
