Martyna has been so generous with her knowledge and time, following up sessions on WhatsApp and keeping me on track. She is very respectful of boundaries in terms of what training methods/tools to suggest, and has been really patient with me while I have been trying to understand mechanics, even demonstrating with my big dog who has literally barked in her face and she was completely unphased! Highly recommended.
Martyna is fantastic, the advice she has provided has been so helpful, not only is she helping with behaviour issues but she noticed within minutes that Cooper might be in pain and she was right, pain meds have changed his whole attitude and meant the wonderful training she provided has been easier for him to pick up. Cooper is a different dog since training with Martyna and I can't imagine not having her on the end of the phone whenever I'm unsure of anything. Not only does he now do what he's told (most of the time) but he also settles without drama and even takes himself off to my bed when he needs a nap, previously he was on the go constantly, possibly down to the pain he was in.
I Highly recommend Martyna aka Perky! She has been taking my Belgian Malinois for Walk & Trains semi-regularly for maybe the past year. She comes to my place (if I am home, or not) picks the dog up , takes him for a hour exercise & proofs the existing training, addresses any issues we may have and then drops him back off tired and happy. It is very convenient for me and have seen noticeable progress in my dog generally and he LOVES it when she comes. She can tell you how to build a better relationship, and how to build the behaviours you would like to see for your Pet (but be prepared for homework she sets if you really want to see lasting improvements!) She is definitely a ‘Dog person’ and you can tell this is more than just a job to her, she is passionate about training and caring for dogs and just being around dogs is her calling! She understands behaviours both good and bad and why they might be happening and almost definitely has a good plan on how to resolve any issues. Also she is always super helpful and always been available to me with good advice be it for training or healthcare.
Martyna has transformed our dog walks! Our nervous young collie x struggled to listen outside and around other dogs due to overstimulation and nerves, so she was permanently on a lead or long line, but working through with Martyna's range of targeted exercises, drills and training has made it so Ziggy can enjoy full off-lead freedom. It's made us feel so much more confident in her safety and her ability to listen to us even throughout situations she finds difficult. It's also clear Ziggy is much more confident during walks knowing what to expect from us as well. I would not hesitate to recommend Martyna for anyone struggling with a nervous or reactive dog, or with recall training.
Martyna’s an amazing trainer. We did a month of training to improve our dog’s recall and learned so much about why our dog wants to play with others and different techniques to call him back. She put together an easy to follow training routine and was always on call to review our “homework” (videos) and offer guidance and support. And it’s really good value considering you get 2 face-to-face sessions and a whole month of WhatsApp tutoring and a training plan. I’d give 6 stars if I could!
