Brooke Foy

Brooke is the owner of The Positive Pet Project and is a Delta Institute Certified Professional Dog Trainer (MDI) (CPDT).

She is a highly skilled evidence-based positive reinforcement trainer and animal behaviour expert who is passionate about assisting people to create and build trusting relationships with their pets.

Not only does Brooke have extensive experience training animals, a 20-year career in social science means that Brooke can relate to humans as well as she can relate to their pets – which is the key to the success of her companion animal training business. 

She has also worked with exotic animals in behaviour enrichment and training husbandry behaviours and has spent many years working with local animal rescue organisations training volunteers and developing and implementing training programs for the animals in their care.

Presently Brooke sits as a committee member on the APDT (Association of Pet Dog Trainers) Australia. She has also sat on the Delta Advisory Board from 2012-2016 and has worked with both State and the Federal Government on a number of projects, they have included Queensland Health, Department of Education as well as projects raising awareness of the benefits of the human-canine bond in the community.
