Scent detection

Penny is a superb trainer. She has never ending patience, expertise and encouragement. She gets the best from you and your dogs.

The materials she provides from the sniffer kit, manuals and videos are excellent. Holly has improved in confidence and we are both having fun.

We loved doing our bronze course and are continuing with our training. I highly recommend Penny.

Behaviour

Penny is an absolute god send. I booked for behavioural consultations for both of my dogs. They both have their own behavioural issues- some similar, some different. Penny was able to suss both dogs out and figure out the reasoning for their behaviours. Penny was able to offer great help and advice on the day - down to using the correct tools and equipment and how to implement them.

Afterwards, I received a detailed and comprehensive report on each of the dogs, going over the dogs backgrounds, their behaviour, why they’re responding the way they do and what I need to do to correct their behaviour going forward (all of which had been discussed on the day of the behavioural consult). We’re less than a week on, and I’m already seeing great progress.

Penny continues to follow up afterwards and offers help and guidance where needed - it’s nice to not just be left alone afterwards to just get on with it!

I can’t thank Penny enough for the work she’s put in so far and continues to do.

Puppy Training

Before

Maggie just needed to learn to 'turn the noise down...

After

“Very pleased! We had a behaviour assessment for our Maggie 🐶 she would bark at every dog we saw on walks and we dreaded seeing other dogs in the park. After a few hours with Penny, Maggie was a complete different dog! She is much easier to manage on a walk and we are very grateful to Penny for helping us start our journey to a happier dog and owners. Thank you!”

Puppy Training

I attended Pennys early learning course and what I learnt was invaluable. Such a great start to help me on my way with my puppy.

I recommend anyone who is getting a puppy to attend one of these courses. It’ll be the best thing you do.

Scent detection

I can't recommend Penny highly enough!

Penny initially helped me following a behaviour consult for a sudden behaviour change in one of my dogs.

We were taught new skills that I hadn't gained with previous dogs (so you will DEFINITELY learn), and also then joined a sniffing course. My large working breed absolutely LOVED the course - it puts his brain towards work and Penny's patience and knowledge meant I could learn at a pace and in a way to suit me.

Following on, I was able to sign my retired show dog up to the sniffer course, following a significant health care trauma the dog had gone through. Again, my dog absolutely loved it, and with Penny's expertise she was able to help me with my dog's developed anxiety. We've also embarked on the gundog training, which for my working breed is giving me so many more skills in my toolbox.

Penny offers a mix of lessons suitable for everyone, group or one-to-ones. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her! You will not regret it!

Behaviour Consultation

I have a rescue lab who was a bit out of control and I needed some help on how best to engage with her.

The initial consultation I had with Penny was very informative, easy to follow and we came away with lots of new, positive habits to reinforce. I’ve subsequently been for scent and heel training workshops which have been equally fun and useful.

Couldn’t recommend Penny enough, she is a great teacher and has really helped to simplify my dog training journey!
