Our History and Goals
The NDTF was established in 1993 to serve as a representative and educational organisation for Australians involved in the professional dog training industry. By bringing our members together, the NDTF open up channels of communication and mutual support for all Australian Dog Trainers. We also promote ongoing education with professional dog training courses for Australia.
The NDTF also acts as an advisor to state, federal, and local government, industry and the private sector - we make sure your voices and the voice of the dog training industry is heard.
Promoting a Higher Standard
By bringing dog trainers together, the NDTF encourages cooperation and collective action to promote higher levels of professionalism, integrity, and communication. As individuals, we often feel that our voices go unheard - but, as a coherent group with similar ideals and concerns, we can effect change and help steer our industry in the right direction
