Casey cassidyNovember 6, 2024.Emma gave us really practical advice and support for managing our new dog's anxiety. She works from a dog leadership perspective that is hunane and gentle. Thanks Emma!Rod KellOctober 22, 2024.Emma has been so helpful with our dog Jasper. At our first session she gave such helpful tips and tricks that by the second session Jasper had improved immensely with his lead pulling and wanting to run off to meet other people and dogs. Emma has given me the confidence to now know what to do to make both my life and Jasper's easier. I would totally recommend Emma to anyone wanting to learn how to have a dog that is well trained and well loved.Neil and Dorothy AllenOctober 16, 2024.Within minutes of arriving, Emma already had the measure of our puppy. Before long, a dog that wouldn't even go out the gate, was walking and Emma identified the issues we were encountering. We are walking around the block and though we have a way to go with other things, we are ready for all of it because we know we have Emma!Christian SiegwaldOctober 11, 2024.Emma is a true gem!

Emma has a incredible understanding of dogs and how their brain operates. She explains the reasons for the techniques and gives great advice. I can see she has a genuine love of her work. Totally recommend.Graham COctober 8, 2024.Emma is AMAZING! I have had issues walking my dog on a lead for far too long. Walking him was a chore that nobody in my family wanted to do. I called Emma, desperate for help. Within minutes of her arrival she had him walking on a slack lead, he was cool and calm and completely under her command. I was gobsmacked. I never knew he was capable of being normal. Emma gave me the skills I needed to deal with his bad habits (and mine) and now walking him is a joy for all of us. Emma is super friendly, extremely knowledgeable and my dog absolutely loved her. Thank you Emma for helping my family and I.Angie VongpremOctober 8, 2024.Emma has been awesome to deal with, friendly and knowledgeable. Great communication and easy to follow instructions and tricks to copy. She has been very helpful and flexible with taking our dog for training given our work commitments. Have done two sessions so far but have noticed a positive difference already.Laura TwomeySeptember 28, 2024.I can’t say enough good things about Emma! Over the years, she has worked with multiple dogs of mine, and each experience has been outstanding. From leash training to recall and general obedience, Emma has a remarkable ability to connect with dogs and bring out their best behavior. Her professionalism truly sets her apart. She approaches each session with a thorough understanding of canine behavior and a tailored plan for each dog. What blew me away was watching her work with my 10-week-old puppy—within just 5 minutes, she had Nicky walking on a lead happily, as if she’d been doing it for months! It was incredible to see such a transformation so quickly. Emma consistently goes above and beyond, not just in training but also in building a relationship with both the dogs and their owners. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about every dog she works with, ensuring they feel safe and supported throughout the process. Thanks to her expert guidance, I’ve seen significant improvements in my dogs’ walking skills and overall responsiveness, especially touch response. Emma equips me with the tools and knowledge to continue the training at home, making the whole experience rewarding. If you’re looking for a trainer who combines professionalism with a heartfelt commitment to every dog’s success, look no further! Highly recommend!sophie ogdenSeptember 26, 2024.Emma is very professional and a lovely person. Her instructions are clear and easy to understand - highly recommend! Thank you :)
