Mowgli
We have a 10 month old Rottweiler, Mowgli, who was very disobedient when it came to walking on a lead. As he is such a large dog I lost all confidence with walking him without my partner.
That’s when the amazing Zoe came to the rescue.
Zoe showed me way to control Mowgli, gave me lots of great tips and gave me the confidence to walk him out in public again after only 2 training
sessions.
Zoe now walks Mowgli twice a week and he can’t contain his excitement when he sees her and always has the most amazing time.
Zoe is very knowledgeable in what she does and is extremely professional.
My partner and I cannot recommend Zoe and more highly.
Thanks Zoe!
Fergie
Zoe has helped us love our doggie again!!!
Fergie is an Australian Bulldog, and was a tad challenging to begin with, so say the least. We started with some training sessions at home, to get more confident in managing her behaviour (and our mistakes!), and now Zoe takes Fergie to play in the park once a week.
She quickly became Fergie's favourite person and gets tail wags and wet kisses every time she comes to pick her up for a park session.
Would highly recommend Zoe's training and play sessions to anyone!
Apollo
I could not recommend Zoe (and her band of Happy Hounds) more highly!
We adopted a rescue pup, Apollo, at the end of last year. Apollo was becoming a bit of a handful to handle at home. He is a Great Dane/Labrador cross (think the energy and boisterousness of a Labrador combined with the size of a Great Dane). I'm normally quite comfortable working with dogs, but he was really challenging me.
To be honest, I was worried that we might not be the right family for Apollo. When I contacted Zoe, I was looking for someone to come give us some practical, straight talking advice. She has given us this and so so much more.
We have seen great improvements in Apollo with her guidance. More and more, I am able to see the awesome family dog he will become. He still has his quirks but he is gaining confidence, as am I. She has changed our lives in such a short time.
When Zoe takes him for walks, she sends me a play by play of how he is going, including videos and photos. I can't tell you how much we look forward to seeing him play with his 'friends'.
Zoe truly loves what she does, is extremely experienced and knowledgeable and is adored by all things furry. I am so very grateful that Zoe has come into Apollo's life and I know he's looking forward to many more walks with her and 'The Hounds'.
Byron
Zoe came to us to help guide us within our very first few weeks with our new French Bulldog pup Byron.
We all learnt so much in the hour!
I highly recommend Zoe and look forward to her continued support.. It is daunting getting your first pup but we all feel more confident with her help.
Fluffy
I reached out to Zoe during covid when our regular obedience classes were put on hold. I noticed my 2yr old Rottweiler “Fluffy” was getting a bit big for her boots towards other dogs plus being a pain to walk on leash.
A sudden lack of regular socialisation for Fluffy, and lack of motivation on my part, meant I was no longer enjoying our walks as much. I knew I needed someone to help and motivate me to be better.
Zoe was great! A no nonsense approach, without being judgemental for my training failings, she had Fluffy eating out of her hand in no time. Zoe trains using positive rewards and has also been able to give me really clear guidance. I’ve often found trainers in the past to be quite confusing!
I really like Zoe’s approach and passion towards training. She has a natural affinity with dogs and I love that she also doesn’t expect Fluffy to be a robot. Both Fluffy and I have improved so much since engaging Zoe’s help.
I would not hesitate to recommend her!
Billie + Lulu
Zoe came and spent an hour with our 5 year old dog and new puppy recently. She gave us confidence that we were doing the right thing with our training as well as lots of tips and training ideas for both the dogs; specifically "come", "leave it" and "give" as well as barking at the door and de-escalating this behaviour.
It was a very successful hour and well worth it. We are going to have a follow up session as well. Thank you Zoe!
