John & Christine are amazing. I have been taking Riley to their daycare every week for a year now. I know he is very well looked after, their training is amazing, I receive update videos through the day so I know what my little guy is up to at all times. John follows up on any behaviour issues. Highly recommended for training, behavioural issues, socialising, daycare. 10 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

John and Christine always do an excellent job taking care of Hero during his weekly daycare and occasional boarding when I need to go away. Hero has come a long way in his training and I am always noticing improvements. They provide plenty of updates through videos when in their care which are great fun to watch and allows you to see what your pup has been up to. Can’t recommend them enough!

As the mum of a 4-month-old puppy, leaving my baby in a stranger’s hands made me very nervous and anxious. I did a lot of research and even tried another daycare before choosing this one, as I wasn’t satisfied with the level of care and service elsewhere. After just a couple of daycare and training sessions here, I was truly amazed by the professional, structured training and the extra care John and Christine provide to every dog, including mine. Throughout the day, I received many videos showing my puppy’s activities, his interactions with other dogs, and the behavioural training he was receiving. This gave me enormous peace of mind, knowing he was in a safe environment where all dogs are closely supervised, guided, and taught important principles and social skills that will benefit them for life. Beyond the fun activities, what really impressed me is that the dogs also have proper, guided rest time, something my young puppy desperately needs for his health. Over the past couple of weeks, my puppy has transformed from barking at every dog to confidently playing with dogs of all sizes. He has also learned to pee on the grass, whereas before he was too scared to go outside and would only use toilet pads indoors. I truly feel this is the right choice I’ve made for my baby, and I’m so grateful that I found a daycare with a training program built in. My puppy is always excited to see his friends on daycare days, and I can tell he really enjoys the structured yet fun environment where he learns proper behaviour from the trainers and the other well-trained dogs. We will definitely continue coming here regularly, both my puppy and I absolutely love this daycare! 🐾💛

Met John today and couldn’t be more impressed. His calm manner put both us and our pack of three at ease, especially our baby Rosie, who was the main focus of the session. John gave us invaluable, truly priceless support—he explained everything clearly, listened carefully, and answered all our questions with so much knowledge and patience. He met us exactly where we are, at our pace and level of understanding. We can’t wait to send our girl every week and help her become the best and happiest dog she can be. Highly recommend!

Our boy, Rumi, loves going to his daycare and spending time with all his friends. John is extremely helpful, gives practical tips and always has time to address our questions. Christine is amazing at keeping us updated on how Rumi’s day is going and how he is progressing. Rumi did his puppy school with Apex as well. Great setup, good service, lots of training exercises and socialisation. Thank you Apex K9 Academy for the care and love for Rumi 💚
