People and Dogs Training & Behaviour

***arthur's reactivity has come down massively*** arthur is a good boy but he was very reactive when he saw and cycle or jogger. very barky, very scared and lunged a lot. i was worried about him getting loose while we were near a road. i took the reactivity training package somewhat out of desperation. i would say the problem halved almost right away after the first session. jenny is brilliant and she taught me some useful techniques for both before he reacts and after he reacts. there have been a few moments where he takes a step back on his progress, but he is a different dog and we are different owners. we have techniques now for every situation and his progress has been remarkable. i feel like as he gets older and with some work, he will be a very calm boy by the end of the year. as a bonus, he is walking much better on the lead. i previously relied on a halti, but i don't need that anymore. jenny is brilliant, she loves dogs and is very knowledgeable. arthur loved her and the support on whatsapp between sessions was invaluable. i recommend people & dogs to everyone now, we are over the moon with arthur's progress.

Just had 3 sessions with jenny working on recall issues with my young jack russell, ronnie. to say jenny performed miracles with ronnie wouldn’t be far wrong!! at the start of the first session ronnie had next to no sense of recall and rarely came back when called - how quickly this changed! through the activities and exercises i learnt from jenny, ronnie is like a different dog - she comes back practically every time when called. the sessions with jenny were fun and interactive and have given me full confidence to let ronnie off lead when out. i would 100% recommend people and dogs to anyone who is looking for any dog training!

My 9 month old border collie was extremely frightened of traffic. i did my research and found jenny at people and dogs. what made me choose this training organisation is all the training is about understanding your dog and helping it overcome fears and anxiety with rewards for positive behaviour- absolutely no punishment! apart from the wonderful training for my dog i also learned a lot about dog behaviour - even though i’ve had dogs all my life. my dog is much happier around traffic now after all jenny’s help and we will keep up with our ‘homework’ to ensure she continues to be the lovely stress free dog jenny has shown me she’s capable of.

We have just done a scent work class with our golden retriever. it is something i’ve wanted to do for a while so was very pleased this course fell on a day i could make it. kat explained all the exercises well & made constructive and encouraging comments on all the practical work we did with our dog. the progression was managed well & advice was given on any queries. we really enjoyed it & would recommend it to anyone who wants to do something a bit different with their dog. i’m already taking scented socks for him to find on our walks! thanks kat.

Very professional, friendly and supportive training. our rescue dog has gained confidence and skills and is now a much happier dog thanks to people and dogs. at first he struggled with being left alone in a room and now having completed the separation anxiety training, we are confidently leaving him for increasingly long periods of time. he is not concerned when we leave and is relaxed and sleeps whilst we are away. we could not have achieved this alone and jenny has offered support at all times. we have learnt so much from her! we have also enjoyed training sessions that have really helped with socialisation. many thanks.
