Black and white Newfoundland dog panting

“Just a short note to say how happy we are with all you have done for Frankie, especially when he is being walked. He is so much calmer with other dogs and is still improving and when left alone for a couple of hours he is no longer as stressed, we can tell by the lack of drool when we get home! Also the treat ball is great it keeps him busy at meal times and he does not lose interest in it. If anyone I know ever needs a behaviourist I will recommend you straight away! Thanks once again.”

“Jo is a natural born trainer. She is so kind, calm and assertive, thoroughly professional and always punctual. She listened fully to us and she understood. She had the simplest of solutions for what to us seemed big issues, but they began working for our little dog, immediately. After just one 2hr session and a follow up, we witnessed a transformation: our dog was balanced, eating properly, walking on a looser lead and meeting and greeting other dogs more calmly. We cannot believe all this was achieved so quickly. The specially tailored paperwork reports and printed sheets are so well written-this is lady who really cares for you and your dog. Jo has worked miracles for us. We only wish we had found her sooner.”
