Flip's NZ - Auckland City

Flip's NZ Ltd is Auckland's premier dog training business, owned and operated by Flip Calkoen. Flip is one of New Zealand's most respected and accomplished dog trainers.


All our clients start with an Initial Consultation with Flip at their home. It is an opportunity for Flip to assess your dog’s temperament, discuss any challenges you have and recommend the most appropriate path forward.

At Flip’s, we have developed a number of specialised training programs to accelerate training and gain optimum results for your dog. These programs have been developed based on Flip's success training thousands of dogs over his forty year career.

We love seeing families go through a wonderful transformation process with their dogs through our skills based dog training programs. The

programs involve a regular training routine, customised to your needs, in a variety of environments and over an extended period of time.

Programs typically start with Flip working one-on-one with your dog to accelerate learnings, followed by sessions with you and the family to ensure lasting results. Flip will conveniently meet you at your home or office.

Enjoy achieving harmony with your dog and develop the confidence that your dog will follow your leadership in any environment on and off the leash! Our training programs suit dogs of any age and ability, including puppies.

Whether you are looking for help to teach your dog the basics, to change unwanted behaviours or for more advanced skills, these programs are proven paths to success. The programs are designed to fit into your daily life and customised for you and your dog.
