Outward-Hound Pet Services

We have attended lots of Joanne’s training sessions, these have been group indoor and outdoor and now they are online. Joanne is brilliant at adapting the targeted activity to the skill level of each dog in the groups. Our dog has benefited from these classes as we have become better dog owners. It’s also great to meet other people and their dogs for socialisation and support.

Jo and her team are simply amazing. Glanford and I have been attending weekly training classes for the past 6 years; she manages to make the training fun for both dog and handler and offers different solutions when things just aren’t clicking (usually for me, not Glanford!). We’ve also had 1-2-1 training when Glannie went through a difficult phase of lurching at anyone who walked towards her - Jo soon gave me the tools and understanding to refocus Glannie and the behaviour soon stopped. The dog walking team are simply the best - I have complete confidence in them and Glannie loves each and every one of them - even though she may not always be willing to get off the sofa! Overall a great Team.

We were looking for someone to look after our Golden Retriever puppy while we were away for a night, and Jo referred us to Linda. The process was seamless and Linda was very quick to put us at ease during the meet and greet. She gave us regular updates as requested! Our puppy had so much fun staying with her and I’m sure she’ll be staying again!

The puppy training course has been a brilliant education for both myself and Skye which we have both thoroughly enjoyed. Skye has come on in leaps and bounds (!) over the last 8 weeks and will grow up all the better for it. Thanks to Jo for a great experience, more training to follow!

Booked our puppy on the 8 week foundation course and could not believe the change in him over these 8 weeks. We had great fun with Jo and both learned great training skills making it easy for the whole family to be involved with training our adorable but difficult puppy. Jo knowledge and patience where different breeds are concerned is great and we are already booked in the next course. I could not recommend Jo more even if I tried.
