Sharon Mills

Sharon Mills is a puppy trainer and canine behaviour educator who teaches owners how to understand the canine mind and raise well-mannered dogs.

Her credibility is built on over 34 years in the dog training and breeding industries, including 21 years running a licensed German Shepherd kennel and placing 450 puppies; she has operated Success Puppy Training since 2012 from Queensland, Australia. Her offerings include in-home coaching in regional Queensland towns, virtual consultations, eBooks, and the Train Your Puppy in Just 3 Days online program.

Day to day she delivers one-on-one in-home coaching that typically includes three visits to establish reliable basic commands and loose-lead walking, runs remote video and telephone consultations, and manages online training products that address biting inhibition, jumping prevention, and basic obedience. Her clients range from new puppy owners and families adopting puppies to breeders, rescue staff and owners of problem dogs seeking fast, practical improvements.

Her central message is that owners need simple, observable communication techniques grounded in how dogs learn; she emphasizes teaching the owner why a method works rather than relying on rote repetition, drawing lessons from maternal dog behaviour and decades of applied practice. Her signature framework is embodied in the Train Your Puppy in Just 3 Days online course.

As a podcast guest, Sharon shows up with story-driven case studies drawn from placing 450 puppies and decades of in-home transformations, and she gives hosts and audiences concrete step-by-step tactics they can use this week to stop biting, prevent jumping, and teach loose-lead walking while explaining the underlying canine mind in accessible language.
