patient with new puppy

“excellent, I think you are both fantastic” Angela, Clovelly "you two do a fabulous job, we wouldn’t have gotten through the puppy phase without you” Christine, Pyrmont“The whole family is involved, makes it great fun. We understand how important it is to encourage good behaviour and can enjoy our puppy more.” Judi, Northbridge “it has taught not only our puppy but our children” James, Naremburn "Natalie did a fantastic job training the latest member of our family. She taught us about grooming, feeding and general health as well as obedience routines at home and in the local park. The key benefit was teaching our little boy how to interact with our dog and involving him in the training sessions." Martin, Bondi Junction |
"Natalie and John are
quite simply excellent teachers and listeners of both dogs and people.
Nat and John worked with myself and Brick (3 year old Staffy X) for
over 6 months on anxiety issues. I found Nat when I had just about
exhausted all other resources (trainers, vets, dog schools, etc.) and
was desperate to improve the quality of life for my Brick and myself. I
would recommend Nat and John without hesitation and press - get them in
early! Brick and I went through a succession of various trainings only
to realise later that it was likely doing more harm than good. Nat and
John took our first couple sessions to really observe Brick to assess
his behaviour and worked with me to understand what I wanted to
achieve. Brick and I continue to work daily on the techniques and
skills Nat and John have taught us. They have made an enormous
difference in our lives for the better and I will be forever grateful
to have worked with them."
"My
name is Bell. Natalie and John trained my mum to train me when I was 7
months old. She thinks they were really fantastic because I was a
rescue dog with no clue about anything and now I am well socialised,
well behaved (well mostly), secure and confident. She tells anyone who
will listen how fabulous they are. I had a bit of a setback after a
knee operation that didn't go so well. Natalie and John maintained
their interest in me. They were incredibly caring and supportive and
helpful during my recovery. They were able to recommend a whole lot of
things that helped my mum prepare me for when I came home from hospital
and then how to help me in my long period of confinement. I think I may
need some refresher training when I am completely better because it
will have been so long since I have been off the lead and played with
other dogs. I am cool with that because Nat and John are so gentle and
training is fun." 
“What a
Dog Needs? --
Natalie and John, no question! Without Natalie and John’s experience,
advice and care our two staffies wouldn’t be the same – they’ve gone
from anxious to happy, healthy and well behaved dogs (with a little bit
of cheekiness of course).
“John and
Nat are a fabulous team. I had an 8 week old Labra-doodle, Monte and we
have
thoroughly enjoyed puppy school with them. The one-on-one sessions also
with Nat
are so useful I highly recommend both for you and your puppy. I love
the
constant referencing to the positive – behaviourally I see how
affirming this is
for dogs and helps build their spirit. Monte loves them both as do I –
thanks
again Nat & John you continue to shine” Sarah, Centennial Park
