Animal Stars - Established in 2000

Suzie Thompson will be your dog trainer, guaranteed!

Suzie has had extensive and unique experiences rarely obtained by dog trainers. She has been training all types of domestic animals for more than 40 years and has trained, provided and coordinated animals for

• television shows and feature films

• commercials and promotions

• live shows, such as Andalusia Park, Koala Town and Warner Bros Movie World where she was Head Animal Trainer

Suzie sees each dog as an individual and will apply appropriate training techniques for that dog, owner and family.

• She trains dogs to want to please you
• Develops the ‘whole’ dog, addressing all areas of the dog’s life in order to get the best results
• She helps people with problem dogs in a realistic and practical way. 

• Educates owners to communicate in a dog-friendly language – after all, they are dogs.

• Addresses primary issues such as the pack order and hierarchy within the family environment 

One of Sue’s specialities is “Star Training”  It is a type of trick training and is particularly useful in film and television situations.  Star Training is fun and just an extension of obedience training, but builds on all of the dog’s natural behaviours and is great fun for both dogs and owners!
