Testimonials

Poor Willow spent the first months of her life in a basement. She was lucky to find Zi and her family, who took a chance on her and gave her an extremely loving home. Willow had never been properly socialised, was destructive, aggressive to other dogs, refused to eat and desperately lacked in confidence. Zi got in touch, desperate for help, it was either that or she would have to be re-homed, so I got her started on an online consultation. 6 weeks on and they are all thrilled and all thoughts of re-homing her are in the past. Willow is eating properly, she can be left alone in the house for short periods, her confidence is growing and she does not launch into attack at every dog she see's. Zi is so thrilled with Willows progress, and so am I.

Well done, Willow and Zi from Devon.

"...I used to dread taking Max out for walks. He pulled on the lead constantly and my shoulder used to ache so badly and if I saw another dog we would have to go the other way or hide, now I don't have to worry, we just walk past. I look forward to taking Max out now, I am so proud of him. I have even let him off in the park (the last time he ran off and attacked another dog) and he was the best behaved dog there!" Thanks Caroline

Joy, from Belfast said: "You were able to identify problems and solutions very quickly and the explanations you gave for these really helped us to understand what was going on. By following your advice her behaviour change was almost immediate, we now have a calm dog which we can trust and who is much happier. I found the experience not only very helpful but also very interesting due to your clear explanation and instruction and reassurance. Also we have had comments from friends about the change in her, that her spirit remains but she is much calmer and easier to control."

Moira from County Londonderry was impressed and found the service to be extremely professional. She now has two happy dogs who are now able to enjoy each others company.

This is Bow, he is a beautiful Border Terrier. Poor Bow had been involved in a terrible car accident which left him with a pin in his leg, luckily he was rescued by his new family who love him loads. Bow was terrified of the traffic and was a little confused around other dogs, thanks to his new family he is now on the road to recovery and his confidence is building as well.

"Again, thank you so much for the work you did with him (& me!!) we can certainly both see the benefits and it really is helping his social skills and helping to rebuild his confidence again around roads and traffic."

Well done Bow.

Charlie is a rescue dog that needed plenty of help settling into his new home. He chewed the furniture, escaped from the garden, he wasn't house trained, was wild on a lead and was very excitable. With the right advice it didn't take long for his new owners to get him on the right track. Look how settled he is now.

"It was amazing, Caroline was only with us for a couple of hours and the difference in him was brilliant, he was toilet trained in just two days and has never chewed again. He is a wonderful dog in every way and we love him to bits, if it hadn't been for Caroline we may have had to take him back to the rescue centre."

Claire from County Down was over the moon with the advice she was given, her rescue dog had been branded as un-housetrainable and had been passed from one home to another. Claire was determined that this would be her last home and after only a very short time her dog had settled in and has not soiled the house since!

'Un-trainable' and 'should be put down' Click below and read more about the dog that other trainers said couldn't be trained.

Just look at him now. You couldn't have got close to him when I first met him, I have even taken my son round to meet him.

Buster enjoying spending time with the staff in Kennels.

Sounds pretty ordinary doesn't it, but until now Buster was so terrified that he would have attacked anyone that tried to get near him, once he relaxed he soon learnt that going into kennels can be loads of fun with new friends. Now he enjoys walks, being groomed, being petted and the odd game. Well done Buster! Now you can have a holiday too.
