Ric dealt with Jumping up, Pulling
I keep loosing my review so this is short and swift! Ric was absolutely fantastic. We have gone from an overexcited, feisty Cavador puppy to a really beautiful puppy who is a pleasure to take out. No jumping, no pulling, no scraping on front door to get to visitors.Thanks heaps Ric. We would never hesitate to get you back if necessary.

Ric dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity, Recall
As Ric entered we could see the change in approach from the get go. Upon the first lesson on who's in charge we could immediately see a change in Daisy and then her excitement for wanting to learn. It's been a game changer so far and already seeing a happier and more respectful companion towards us. Would recommend 15 times out of 10!

Honestly, Ric is my super hero!
I had my first session today and I can already feel the relationship between my dog and I has improved! Ric made the whole process SO easy right from the get go. I am clear on all the steps and how to keep at them in the best way for my dogs behaviour, I was able to ask as many questions as I needed and Ric made me feel both comfortable and confident throughout the whole process. I cannot wait to see what the next few weeks hold and am so excited for the next lesson already! 😃

Ric dealt with Aggression, Sibling rivalry
Ric was so kind and attentive when dealing with our dogs’ sibling rivalry. We have seen so much progress in the last couple months thanks to his help. We have a better bond with our dogs and we understand them more than ever before. Thank you Ric!!
Trainer note from Ric
Hello Chloe, I'm so happy you have turned your situation around, Sibling rivalry can be a horrible situation to deal with and can often lead to rehoming or euthanising. This is the worst result for any pack/family. This is why we trainers love this work we do, seeing great result like yours, Thank you for hard work and allowing me to assist with your pack, Well done great work Chloe!

Really really happy with Ric and his help with our two little rascals. He absolutely knew his stuff, was very informative and listened to our needs well. He explained things so well and we covered a great amount in the first lesson . I'm excited to see improvements over the next few weeks. I'm so happy I made this investment to make both our lives and our dogs lives better :)

Ric was extremely professional, friendly and effective. He familiarised himself with Suki's environment and quickly provided simple and meaningful suggestions to rectify a range of Suki's less desirable behaviours. I am confident that with Ric's patient and clear guidance, I will be able to train my cavoodle to be an obedient, happy and more relaxed member of the household.
Trainer note from Ric

Thanks you again for this lovely review . Kind Regards Ric

Had the pleasure of working with Ric and our two girls, a 4 year old Bull Arab and a 3 year old kelpie. Our dogs had been having some sibling rivalry which had become too much to manage without keeping them separate. Our Bull Arab is often stubborn but was immediately Ric's best friend and listened intently to Ric's practice and training. Our Kelpie who likes attention was sitting and listening to Ric's instruction and was first time we had seen her not bother a visitor for attention. Both girls were very engaged and attentive to the training and responded very well, it was clear they were enjoying being challenged and learning. For myself and my partner, Ric was excellent in training us as well so we can continue to train our girls to so they feel happy and safe. The training style is very informative and Ric is not judgmental and very supportive, with an approach that while most dog owners do things right, we don't speak dog and we can always be better.

Ric dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Recall, Other
Ric was fantastic! I have a daughter who is on the spectrum who is always scared of our dog because he jumps up on her and we cant have him inside as much as we would like. Ric arrived showing us how to teach him not to jump and how to make him calm. What an amazing difference we now have. The best part is we can have him inside more because he Isn't chasing our cats or jumping up on our daughter.
Thank you Ric Amazing!!!

Ric dealt with Barking, Chewing, Digging, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Other
Ric was very good with Eden. Ric showed our family a number of techniques to use, when training Eden, to be calm when there are visitors and how to keep Eden walking beside you.
We discussed our concerns where Ric explained and showed us how to improve Eden's behaviour.
Eden still has a way to go but her behaviour after only one session has improved greatly
Trainer note from Ric
Hello Elizabeth, Thank you for your review. Eden did so well during her first session. There is quite a bit of work with her especially since she has built up quite a bit of fear with visitors. With your families improving leadership, Eden will soon become more confident and make great progress. I'm only a phone call away until our next session if you need any support or guidance. Kind Regards Ric
