K9hub was created by Sharon, a Canine Behaviour Specialist with a background in animal welfare, to support dogs and families through behaviour, change and transition — with a strong focus on welfare, understanding and prevention.
After more than a decade working in animal welfare, including hands-on roles within adoption and behaviour teams, Sharon has seen first-hand how often dogs struggle not because they’re “bad”, but because their needs and communication are misunderstood.
Sharon’s approach is calm, practical and judgement-free. She focuses on understanding what behaviour is communicating, supporting emotional wellbeing, and helping families make informed, kind choices that work in real life — not just in theory.
K9hub is deeply shaped by lived experience. Sharon shared her life with Max and Charli, two much-loved dogs who continue to influence the way she supports others today, and with Snazzy, her rescue dog, who is a daily reminder that behaviour is shaped by experience — and that with patience, understanding and the right support, dogs can truly flourish.
At its heart, K9hub exists to help dogs stay in homes where they can thrive, and to give people the confidence to support their dogs through every stage of life.
K9hub works with families across Melbourne and Australia, offering both in-home and online behaviour support.
