What a dramatic change! From a bouncing, barking, biting puppy (Great Dane cross), to a calm, relaxed, lay by your feet happy fur kid! Your young pup is so super sweet, and responded to our calm methods in the first 5mins of the lesson starting. Focusing on mouthing and biting, lead training, obedience, lounge manners and night time craziness, as well as crate training and preventative night time barking - so pleased with the results! As always I have provided support after the first lesson, and I can't wait for lesson 2, where we'll focus on road safety, pulling and size management (he's going to be a big boy!). Thanks again for allowing me to assist :-)

Thank you so much for your positive feedback and thoughts on our positive training system - but you have done all the hard work, so you get the Gold Star! It was clear at the first session how much everyone loves Bindi, but there was also an element of caution / fear, not knowing how to handler her issues. We targeting the door (manners), jumping up, mouthing, visitor aggression, recall, positive crate training, obedience - and wow, wasn't she an awesome pupil! Repetition and consistency is key, and your whole family nailed it! Second lesson went from total unfocussed pulling, to walking politely on a loose lead, watching for your commands - road manners / safety got a good start, and we will move in to dog reactivity / lunging at lesson #3 - can't wait! Keep up the amazing work!

Radar is just the most delicious bundle of goodness, thank you for inviting me into your home to assist. Covering off all the normal puppy issues like sleeping, mouthing, toilet training, lead work and starting on obedience, we also made child safety a good fun game, so that your gorgeous children were able to play safely and calmly with their new little buddy. I am looking forward to seeing you at our social class for puppies (included in your fee!), very soon (and yes, I'll eb stealing more cuddles LOL). Great job team, well done!

Tard is such a dude! With working breeds in his make up (Border Collie x) we had to get his brain engaged so he could relax, and I was so impressed with how much he had improved between lessons! Thank you to you and your family for following through with the daily programming, and other recommendations, you have done a wonderful job (child safety is so important, and it is so great he is so much calmer.

Max is a super bouncy 1 year old Labradoodle - I loved the comment from his human Dad "I couldn't believe the change after one lesson!". We managed to get his jumping under control, he now walks nicely on the lead, and the most important thing was managing his separation anxiety (whining and howling), which is well on the way to being corrected. Well done to Max's family for your consistency and daily training, huge difference! At our third lesson we'll go for a walk and work on distraction training. Can't wait!!

Max is a gorgeous GSD (German Shepherd Dog) who at 3, lost his best mate, which is so sad. With some fine tuning within the house structure, Max's lovely owners have been able to see wonderful improvements with his barking, lead work, anxiety related issues and obedience. At our second lesson we started work on Max's pulling on lead (I always enjoy watching a client walk their dog up the road on a loose lead!) and the third lesson we'll start on distractions. Massive well done, huge improvement from you consistent work!!!

Malibu is the luckiest rescue Amstaff who has landed in the most wonderful doggy home! At only 2 years old, he has his whole life ahead of him - and now that his barking, fence running, over guarding is under control, we have started working on his walking. All your consistent work was shown at the second lesson, where we worked on walking techniques - I was so proud of Malibu walking along at heel on a loose lead!!! And not trying to dislocate your shoulder by pulling LOL. I am looking forward to lesson #3, where I will bring a dog to manage the dog reactivity. Keep up the solid work, I look forward to continuing to support your #lifetimesupportguarantee
