Testimonials

Freja

Highly recommended … Jo's first training session took place before we brought our 8 week old puppy home. Even though we are experienced dog owners we had forgotten the impact of a puppy and the advice she gave got us and our little one off to a very positive start.
Our little one now only 11 months of age receives numerous compliments from passers-by and patrons at eateries for her excellent manners for such a young dog. This has given us the confidence to keep progressing with the training at the different classes offered.
Jo stands out from all other trainers we have known, because of her up-to-date knowledge of canine behaviours, training is broken down into easy confidence building steps, along with a 'from the dogs point of view' explanation and she makes it a fun and positive experience.

Ted

"Ted would like to send a huge thank you to Jo at Paws4Teaching, at 5yrs old he came to live with us and was finding all the changes a bit stressful. Jo has helped us to understand Ted and how to help him cope with his new life. He is now so settled and enjoying life to the full and we highly recommend Jo and her skills and so does Ted x"

Cooper

"Thanks to Jo and her wealth of knowledge and understanding of dogs she has helped us implement effective training which has enabled us to enjoy our time with Cooper outside the house.
She has not only helped Cooper progress from a mischievous puppy into a well behaved, responsive young dog but she has enabled us to be better owners.
We cannot recommend or thank highly enough"

Bella

"When we first met Jo Bella (cairn terrier) was 5 months old, due to illness and moving we started puppy training late. Bella was untrained and running wild and I was running around behind her flapping!! I knew puppies were a handful but had no idea at what exactly I would need to do. Four weeks of puppy training classes and three home visits later the difference is amazing! From day one when Jo came around for a home visit the changes were brilliant. First visit we went from puppy pads on the floor and accidents everywhere to crate training and no potty accidents in one day!!! Jo has help me implement a daily schedule for Bella which even stops her being over tired and cranky. I was very nervous about Bella’s interaction with other dogs and letting her of the lead, on our 1to1’s Jo has helped me learn to walk Bella on a long line and help her interact with other dogs properly, while helping me not panic! Jo is not only a brilliant puppy trainer I would say she is a pretty great human trainer also! Jo has helped with so many aspects of Bella’s training that I can’t list them here, She is always there to help even on the phone and through emails! I only wish I had had 1to1’s with Jo before we got Bella or at the least straight after we had her before puppy classes! If you are thinking of training with Jo all I can say is it’s the best thing you could do!"

Beau

"3 months ago I messaged Jo to help me with my nervous little Shih tzu Beau. She was petrified of other dogs which meant she was really anxious to go out for walks! With a lot of help, great advice and a couple of training walks with Jo and her dogs (which are amazing) Beau had her first walk last night with another dog
I am so proud of her but wouldn't of been able to do it without Jo. Thank you so much xx"
