About Us
We're all about Dog Training!
Noel Austria is a graduate of a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration,
Major in  Accounting. Although he worked as a banker, his passion for dogs led
him to pursue a career in dog training.

He started training dogs since 1993 and have attended various seminars in
different parts of the world to improve his craft. His training styles are a
combination of different
European techniques for which he has learned in his
years of training experience and travel.

Since 1993, he has continuously trained dogs of various breeds and different
training disciplines.

In November 1998, he founded & authored the first and only local dog sport in
the Philippines, the Philippine Utility Dog Association or PUDA. An organization
established to certify dogs trained in various protection disciplines.  He is also
the first Protection Trial Judge accredited by the Philippine Canine Club Inc., (an
affiliate of the American Kennel Club).  As such, he has given various dog
training seminars all over the Philippines.

With help from his friends, he established the
Spratly K9 Training Center in
Manila, a dog school that trains not only dogs, but also handlers who wish to
become dog trainers.

Spratly K9 in Manila Philippines specializes in training dogs for Sports
Competition, Personal Protection, Scent Detection, Behavioral Problem Solving,
Aggression, and customized training to suit the client's needs.   

In 2005, Noel Austria moved to the US to continue what he does best, train
dogs. He brought with him the same quality of training that is honed and
polished by his years of training experience.  And to ensure excellent training
result, Noel personally handles all training of Spratly K9 students
here in the US.
