Jo has been unbelievably helpful to us with our lab Ruby who was displaying anxiety and was reluctant to go out on walks. After Jo’s advise to check out possible underlying causes with the vet and understanding why this may be happening, we are making great progress and Ruby is now back to enjoying her walks 😊

We booked our 1 year old Cocker Spaniel in with Jo for the ‘trained for you’ package. We asked for her to work on his recall and engagement on walks and she did just that. Jo was fantastic with him and we’ve seen massive improvements in him when walking. I would highly recommend her! 😊

Great session with Jo and our over excited puppy. She really taught us a lot and we saw immediate improvements. Looking forward to our next sessions - thank you Jo!

Jo is incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to reactivity and dog behaviour. Before working with her, my 46kg reactive dog Bruno was extremely difficult to manage, even causing me injuries due to his strength. I had to restrict our walks to just 15 minutes during very quiet times. After a few sessions with Jo and regularly practice, the transformation has been amazing. We’re now able to enjoy walks of nearly an hour, and I feel much more confident handling situations where we encounter other dogs. Bruno is far less reactive at a reasonable distance, and while closer encounters are still a work in progress, we’re steadily improving. Most recently, we had a pairing session with another member from the group Jo runs and it went brilliantly. I never thought group walks would be possible for Bruno, but now they’re within reach. I’m very grateful for Jo’s guidance and support and I highly recommend her services.

I have a very stubborn, energetic frenchie and Jo was able to make a difference after just one session. Her calm approach and way of explaining the best way to work with our Hurricane is exactly what we needed i highly recommend Joe for anyone with a stubborn, reactive dog.

I reached out to Jo for help with Pimms, my 3yr old Wirehaired Pointing Griffon. Pimms is reactive and I was really struggling with how overstimulated he gets on walks and as big dog, I can't physically deal with him pulling me all over the place and reacting to everything and anything! Jo did a behavioural assessment on him, gave me a training programme and followed up with a practical session. This has helped us a lot with the loose lead walking, recall as well as being more focused and less all over the place when we go out of the house. Jo also holds monthly walks with her reactive dog clients, where we are all able to practice at a safe distance getting closer to each other. These sessions have helped Pimm's so much with better control of his emotions and learning to turn his attention to me when things get a bit too much. We still have a lot of work to do, especially with Pimm's being a very active breed and therefore easily excitable and needs to run around to let his energy out! the WhatsApp group with Jo's other reactive dogs clients is also amazing to be part of to get some advice on different topics and most importantly to be able to share little daily wins with people who understand. I am very thankful for Jo's help and look forward to progressing much further with Pimms with her by our side :)

Fully recommended Jo! We booked onto her level 2 & 3 puppy training to help with our 8 month rescue from Bosnia Luna! Luna had 0 training when she arrived and Jo helped us train her to sit, down, wait & walk all the lead all of which set us up for success with our girl! We now have booked some 1-2-1 with Jo to help work on her recall. Everyone says what a well trained & lovely dog she is and Jo helped us lay the foundations for success!!

Jo’s helped us gain confidence and provided the tools we need to continue to tackle reactivity. If you’re willing to put in the time it’s definitely worth dropping Jo a message.

Jo has been amazing for us in helping with our rescue Dotty, not sure how we would have managed without her. Highly recommended
