About Our School
PawFect Pups started as a puppy school, training only puppies up to the age of 5 months.  After the partnership between Coral (formerly of Tailwaggers) and Janet (originally PawFect Pups) formed in 2015, the school has grown from strength to strength, introducing Beginner and Intermediate courses for pups older than 5 months old and Canine Good Citizen. Coral and Janet have the same philosophies and share a vision of developing a school which offers a range of classes.


Since 2015 PawFect Pups has added two additional services to their offering, utilising the skills and training that Coral and Janet have gained over the years. PawFect Daycare, run by Janet, offers a "home-away-from-home" environment for small breed dogs during the week. Coral, a qualified animal behaviourist, has left the corporate world and started her practice, PawFect Pals, which specialises in canine behavior.

Tisean Govender recently joined our team as a puppy trainer and Mari Yanagawa is taking care of the Intermediates.

They are both valuable additions to the team and we are delighted to be working with them.

Our school offers PUPPY TRAINING (8 - ± 20 weeks) and socialisation, BEGINNER TRAINING caters for dogs of 5 months onwards who have had very little or no training. We start from scratch with basic obedience training and also incorporate fun activities. INTERMEDIATE AND ONGOING TRAINING is for puppies who graduated from Puppy School or have done previous basic obedience training.
