Dawn was recommended to me by a lot of people when I was looking for help with my naughty whippet Ernie. We initially had a phone call to discuss my concerns then arranged to meet up in person. We have had several meetings at home and out on walks so she could see what Ernie is like and she has provided a lot of support and advice along the way in person and on WhatsApp. 100% recommend Dawn
I would definitely recommend Dawn. We have a Tibetan Terrier, who can be unpredictably reactive and we have worked with Dawn during the past few months. Dawn has given me lots of really useful strategies and has been unfailingly supportive and positive. Nessa is much improved and I now know what to do when she takes the odd backward step. There has been no pressure to book lots of sessions, but Dawn has always made herself available when needed. Thank you 🐶🐾
Dawn has been a part of my journey and now I have 3 goldies in my life teddy, Poppy and Winston. We have had Dawn since Teddy came home at 8 weeks old, 7 and half years ago. Shes always at the end of the phone if ever I’m not sure about something. Even if it’s just reassurance for me !! She’s trained me very well !! 😂😂 I had no clue about how to train or look after a dog the right way. Now I have 3 beautiful dogs who are non reactive to others when out walking, walk beautifully in a lead and are the centre of our family. I couldn’t have done that without Dawn. She’s like a fairy godmother for dogs 🥰🥰🥰. I can’t recommend her highly enough xx thanks for everything and what you continue to do. I don’t ever imagine life without you in it all the while I have my pooches !! You’re as much as a part of the family as they are and you know them as well as I do.
Working with Dawn was brilliant for me and my nervous Yorkie. We did a Zoom call at first to meet in a relaxed way, and for Dawn to understand our situation before we met up. We then met in various different locations so that we could work on different aspects of behavior...home, busy places, our daily walking routes..she interpreted my dogs responses and gave me some really clear and workable advice. I would highly recommend working with Dawn!
Dawn is a fantastic trainer who I would recommend to anyone. I have used Dawn for both one to one training and for puppy classes, winter activities, kc bronze and latterly silver. Her methods are great, she is very patient and full of advice when you need it due to her vast experience in training and from working in a vets. Her passion for what she does it clear to see and my dogs are always excited to see her, as well as exhausted after a training session!
