"We’re so grateful to Jen for her amazing work with our Romanian rescue dog, Sami. Sami came to us with some clear anxieties. She would bark at absolutely everything and was especially nervous around strangers. While she was incredibly friendly and well-behaved with other dogs, her fearful reactions to people and unfamiliar situations made it difficult for us to help her adjust to life in a busy seaside town.

Jen immediately took a compassionate and calm approach. She considered Sami's triggers and the importance of her background as a rescue dog, helping us understand that her reactions were likely rooted in past experiences.

Sami is already showing massive improvements. She's barking less and while she's still cautious around new people, she's becoming more trusting over time. The techniques Jen taught us have empowered us to continue making progress on our own. More importantly, Sami is so much happier and more relaxed in our home, which means the world to us.

We highly recommend Jen. Her expertise, compassion and holistic approach have made so much difference to Sami. We're so thankful!"

"Our Cockapoo Luna was struggling with resource guarding issues at home. Luna is usually a sweet girl but started showing possessiveness over food and toys, and even certain places like the sofa. It was becoming increasingly difficult to manage and we were concerned about her interactions with our family members and other pets. 

From the very first session, Jen was patient and attentive. She used positive reinforcement methods that felt natural and non-confrontational, which was key since Luna can be a bit anxious. After a few sessions, we saw big changes for the better. Luna's guarding behaviour has all but stopped and we feel more confident in managing situations as they arise. Jen was always available for follow-up questions and made sure we felt supported throughout the whole process."

"We’re very grateful to Jen for her help with our eleven year old Lab, Ted. He started becoming reactive on-lead around other dogs and it was heart-breaking to see our lovely old boy like this. We weren't sure what had changed, and we felt rather lost trying to manage 'the new Ted'.

Prior to meeting us, Jen considered Ted’s age and potential health issues, which we hadn’t thought about at all. Jen recommended that we see our vet first to rule out any illness that might be affecting Ted's behaviour. It turned out Ted had signs of arthritis and cataracts, which I'm embarrassed to say we hadn't noticed before as Ted is rather stoic.

We reported back to Jen with our vet's findings and Jen was happy to work with Ted now that we were fully informed about his health. With Jen's guidance, we started using training exercises to help Ted feel more at ease during walks. The combination of medication from the vet and behaviour work with Jen has made quite a difference. Our walks have become enjoyable again. 

We love how Jen focused on Ted's health first and foremost. It's clear that the well-being of all dogs is Jen's priority."

"We're so pleased with the support we've received from Jen in working with Bear, our 3 year old German Shepherd. Bear has always been a highly strung dog, and while we know he doesn’t mean any harm, his reactions to other dogs on-lead had become a problem. He's a big dog, and his barking and lunging is both worrying to others and embarrassing for us. We knew we needed help but we weren’t sure where to start.

From the get-go, Jen reassured us that improvement was possible. After using Jen's techniques, Bear is now much more manageable on walks. Although he’s not 100% calm yet, we’re able to navigate situations with more confidence. Jen didn’t promise an overnight fix, but gave us the skills and patience we needed to help Bear improve."

"Thank you to Jen for her help with our cocker spaniel. Cooper had developed some resource guarding, mostly around food. It became a real concern for us, especially with a baby on the way. We were honestly unsure if we’d be able to keep Cooper as we didn’t know how to manage his behaviour safely.

Jen really listened to our concerns and gave us a clear plan to address Cooper's guarding sensibly. We’ve already seen change in Cooper, and we’ve learned how to handle situations where he might have previously shown aggression. We feel much more capable handling him."

"Our Scottish Terrier Bruce has always been a grump when it comes to people coming into our home or daring to move around the house. It had started to become a real challenge, especially now that we have grandchildren visiting often. We were starting to worry that he might never be any different.

Jen was patient with Bruce and very understanding of his attitude problem! We were surprised to see Bruce warm up to her so quickly, which is something we haven’t experienced with most people. Jen reassured us that with a change in strategy, Bruce’s grumpiness could be helped. We were given a step-by-step positive rewarding plan to follow. Bruce is making great progress and settles quicker when people come over. 

So if you also have a grumpy old man like Bruce, talk to Jen!"

"I can’t thank Jen enough for the help she provided for my Cockapoo puppy, Poppy! As a first-time dog owner, I was feeling overwhelmed with puppy training, especially since Poppy is so full of energy! Jen walked me through the basics of puppy behaviours and training in a way that made sense and was open to all questions. It's such a relief to finally understand the “why?” behind Poppy and the things she does. And to realise that all her little 'naughty' behaviours are totally normal! I've gone from feeling like the world's worst dog owner to feeling super confident that I'm doing the best for my fur-baby. I’ve also taken Jen's advice and signed up for puppy classes to continue Poppy’s training. Both me and Poppy are really looking forward to it!

Thank you for your help, Jen!"
