What our clients say about training with us....
Heather is a brilliant trainer. She’s very friendly and knowledgeable, with the patients of a saint.
Heather helps both Arthur (my pup) and I through our ringcraft training. She identified how my behaviours and actions were having an impact on him.
I cannot thank or praise her enough for her time and patience with us. With Heather's help, we qualified for Crufts at his first show.
***** Heather was amazing with our boy Boycee and had done her research on his rare breed…Hovawart. She made the training fun and it was completely tailored to Boycee’s capabilities and attention span.
***** We couldn’t recommend Heather enough. We have only had two 1:1 classes with her and our puppy Kevin and she has taught us so much already, she is really knowledgeable and a really nice person.
***** Heather is a fantastic trainer and taught us how to train or puppy. Pawsative Skills is such a lovely environment to learn and made Ted so comfortable to be around new people and dogs. The puppy’s interacted and played which is so lovely to see. We use the skills everyday and the training is so valuable. We will absolutely be looking to do the adolescent classes. Thank you so much x
***** Brilliant puppy classes with Heather who is very experienced and knowledgeable. I’ve reached out to her a few times in between sessions and she’s been amazing. Will be returning for adolescence classes.
***** We recently completed a 6-week puppy course and couldn’t be more pleased with the experience! Heather was absolutely wonderful! She is kind, patient, and incredibly caring. She took the time to ensure both our puppy and ourselves felt comfortable and confident throughout the training.
Her teaching techniques were brilliant, offering practical and effective methods that made learning fun and engaging for both us and our puppy. She had fantastic ideas that really helped us understand how to communicate with our pup and set him up for success.
We are so grateful for her support and dedication. Her passion for what she does truly shines through, and we highly recommend this course to anyone looking to build a strong foundation with their puppy. Thank you for all your time and guidance!
***** We all attended puppy and adolescent class as a family with our border terrier puppy. The classes have made a huge difference to our puppy, great activities are carried out in class with clear instructions on things to work on at home. Would 100% recommend Pawsitive Skills.
***** Absolutely amazing! Took our 7 month old puppy for the puppy training and by the end of the 6 weeks she improved so much!
***** Heather has a lovely way with our puppy Lucy. She is very gentle and patient and listens well to things we struggle with at home. She is always full of good ideas and has really helped us improve Lucy's behaviour generally. She has suggested fun games to help keep her stimulated and entertained at home. These also encourage our daughter to get involved with the training. We can't thank Heather enough for the time and effort she has put in to helping us train Lucy and settle her onto our family.
*****Heather was amazing with our one-year-old rescue Golden Retriever, Walter. He had spent most of his puppyhood in kennels, had no manners, and was overly socialised. From the very first few minutes of meeting Heather, I knew we were in safe hands. The difference in Walter after just one session was incredible! Although we had to pause training due to his castration, we’re really looking forward to working with Heather again in the future.
***** Would absolutely recommend Heather, one to one sessions set us off on the right track and she went above and beyond supporting us with settling our sprocker puppy Henry in the car. Puppy class was relaxed and informal but we learnt how to work with Henry and built pawsitive bond. Would recommend 100%. Next step adolescent training Thank you so much Heather x
***** Couldn't recommend enough! Heather has absolutely transformed our Romainain Rescue, and we'll always be so thankful. We started with 1-1 sessions and did the final few at puppy class. Her calm nature really helped us as anxious new dog parents, and she definitely knows her stuff.
*****Heather is great, with lots of effective tips and ideas. Even helped me look at my dog's food and weight (not part of her services but great life experiences over this). Highly recommend, using the one-to-one when we visit the area.
