Ian Shivers

Bondi Behaviourist
Dog Behaviour Consultant, Bondi Behaviourist · What's going on with your dog?

My mission is to help as many dogs and people live the best lives they can: through 1:1 support, online, and by supporting the professionals who support people and their dogs too.

Bondi Behaviourist exists to create the best possible lives for people and their dogs. Because behaviour is not defiance — it is communication

Because punishment silences symptoms but never solves causes.

Because safety is the foundation of every stable, confident dog.

I believe dogs deserve to feel safe before they are asked to perform.

I do this work so that guardians stop fighting behaviour and start understanding it — creating calm, emotionally stable dogs built on trust, clarity, and guidance.

No one size fits all solutions.

No harsh corrections or dominance or over reliance on treats.

Just a real understanding on training, relationships and setting them up to succeed.
