Expertise is Invaluable

We`ve been working with Katey on our 2 yr old Yorkie. Jago`s problems included high stress levels, reactivity to some other dogs on walks, the hoover, doorbell, separation anxiety, heightened activity and alertness, unable to settle.

Following a very thorough assessment Katey returned with a detailed Behavioural Adjustment Training Plan. She talked us through it step by step. We have worked hard in the past three months to identify, reduce and manage Jago`s triggers. Katey taught us techniques to achieve this along with desensitising methods. It`s great to now see Jago so much calmer, relaxed, happier and less stressed at home and on walks. He is a different dog. His progress in all the issues mentioned above is remarkable.

Can`t recommend Katey highly enough. Her expertise is invaluable. She has turned Jago around and saved our sanity. Onwards we go.

Training is fun!

Katey worked wonders with Daisy my rescue dog, who really enjoyed her training and proved to be super quick at learning. Unfortunately, after an accident, I lost all my confidence and Katey has stepped back in to work with both Daisy and myself and has adapted her training methods to suit my capabilities. Daisy loves her training sessions and our special bond is returning, which makes it all worthwhile. I have already recommended Katey to others and will continue to do so.
