Reviews

“Thank you very much for the good, insightful training you gave to Milly and me last week.
I can’t believe how clever my dog is!
She got it instantly, loves the impulse game and even looks at me sometimes when she sees a dog coming.
Seeing how she likes to learn makes it easy to keep up”.

Gill & Milly

“I’ve never been able to give my dog a treat in the vicinity of another dog because she wouldn’t take it.

But here she is taking treats in less than 2 hours and with a dog no more than the distance of two roads away”.

“We’ve been so grateful for Sam’s support since we got Stanley! We recently had a small incident that was completely out of character, but Sam reassured us that he’s just hitting his teenage phase, and there’s no need to worry. She gave us such practical advice to help us navigate this stage, and we can’t thank her enough!”

Hayley & Stanley

“Hugo is a little nervous about the world, but Sam took the time to really get to know him and encouraged us to focus on building his confidence in a fun and positive way. She suggested teaching him some tricks, which has been a great way to help him feel more secure, and we even attended a class to learn how to spin! “

“My daughter has always had a fear of dogs, which hasn’t come from any incidents. We worked with Sam to foster a sense of safety around dogs – learning their behaviours and how best to react to situations. She now has a growing confidence, which is amazing to see. Sam is so patient and understanding, and talked to her in a way that really resonated. Highly recommend!”

Sonia & M

“Took our lab Oscar along to a class to see if he could learn some new tricks, and he had a great time. Sam was clear in her instructions and happy to field questions and give feedback. The class was focussed without being stressful. Appreciate the way Sam set up the space so that we never felt our very friendly boy was bothering the more nervous dogs. Would recommend to anyone seeking a high-quality trainer”.
