One of Australia’s  leading dog  training consultants, Martin Dominick, has trained
countless dogs and dog  lovers over the past 25 years in Australia and abroad.
With the tremendous success of K9 Centre and the problem of turning away clients due to popularity , Martin created The K9 Centre Franchise Company in 2006 to have others with the same passion help him continue his work.
Martin decided to take everything he’d ever learned about the dog business, and everything great about working with dogs, and create Australia first real dog training business that encompassed all types of dog training from puppies, obedience problems & dog psychology  to full working dog training. And that’s how the K9 Centre Franchise  Systems where born.

 With Martin serving as a R.A.A.F Police Dog Handler / Trainer, and whilst still serving in The Royal Australian Air force  back in 1991 his skills as an awarded dog trainer where sought by others in the dog community outside of the R.A.A.F.  Martin’s career in the dog industry sky rocketed from there. Martin has certified dog training qualifications and experience in dog psychology & problem solving, Police Dog Training,  Tracking, Detection Dog Training ( Explosives, Drugs etc ) search and rescue.
