Client Testimonials
Don’t take our word for it – here’s what our clients have to say:

Tanja really understands dogs and in the few sessions we have had can see the improvement in the dogs behaviour both on and off the lead. She explains the process about the training, and have seen the results already. We have had the dogs doing things other trainers have not succeeded or said not possible.So really happy to post this.

Tanja was brilliant at helping me learn how to train my Shihpoo. With the techniques and equipment Tanja taught, we made proper progress with recall and attention, which I have continued to benefit from. It’s a process with a lively curious boy but we are both happier with learning some ground rules.
Patricia Hurley

I found the Zoom seminar on lumps and bumps really useful and informative. Tanja’s teaching style covers a lot of information thoroughly. She is very knowledgeable about the aromatherapy oils and other health promotion for our dogs so answers questions with ease. I look forward to listening to more.
