"Viv was brilliant with our golden retriever and we now have a very happy, confident, well behaved dog. I highly recommend Viv for all your dog training needs and sometimes it is the owner who needs it more than the dog. Viv has provided us with the skills and knowledge to continue to keep Mabel confident and a pleasure to walk and play with."

"Viv has been absolutely fantastic for us and our pup. She really helped us calm our anxious pup and improve our engagement and understanding of her needs. She was very patient and highly adaptive when things weren't going quite to plan."

"The visit at her paddock was great. It's a nice open space for dogs to explore and suitable for many types of training. Viv uses positive reinforcement techniques which have proved to be very effective with our puppy."

"Couldn’t recommend Viv more! We have two Miniature Dachshunds, our youngest has been doing puppy classes and is thriving. She’s also been helping us with our other Dachshund who’s very nervous to gain confidence and ease his reactivity."

"Viv really offers such great advice and helps to understand how a dog thinks and therefore behaves. The practice sessions are also invaluable so you can then take away and practice. Highly recommended."

"We have been through Viv’s reactivity programme with our rescue dog, Bluey. We’ve been really happy with this process. Over the course of a couple of months, we’ve learnt how to read Bluey’s and other dogs body language, and to know when to give Bluey more space before he gets overwhelmed by nearby dogs. Because of this, his dog-reactivity isn’t anywhere near as bad as what it was when we started."
