Testimonials

Els has known and worked with our very excitable Cocker Spaniel, Jaffa, since he was 4 months old. They have taught him a variety of commands and did a lot of work to try and curb his lead pulling. Els enthusiasm and passion for what they do is clear. Jaffa is always so happy to see them and learn … and play! Can't recommend them enough!

We have a Vizsla who is 18 months old. Like all Vizslas he is full of energy and has a big personality. Elodie has worked with him since he was a puppy. Els is reliable, patient and kind with him and with us. They have taught him loose lead walking, gun dog tricks and many others. Els has been studying while working as a dog walker over the last 18 months and I have seen their confidence growing alongside Marley's. Marley is always so happy to see Els and he and I would recommend Els as a passionate and dedicated trainer for you and your pup.

Els was amazing and really helped us with our dog who has struggled with the birth of our baby. They were so helpful and was always on hand to answer any questions and set up a Whatsapp chat. The plan created for our dog was sent to us so quickly after chatting through the issues we had and was incredibly tailored. We started implementing the changes they suggested and almost saw an immediate change. After one session, we felt so much better and it only took two sessions to get the tools we needed for a pleasant walking experience with our dog. Thanks Els!

 Elodie assisted me with great techniques and tips to avoid unwanted attention if bombarded by other off-lead dogs together with general dog walking advice. Elodie has a passion for her job and love of dogs. I wouldn't hesitate to use her again.

We can not recommend Elodie and Freddy enough. They have been walking our Cockapoo for a number of years, they are super friendly, reliable and extremely knowledgeable about dogs! They often give advice and support and their love of dogs is very apparent. They go to all sorts of different places for variety for the dogs (lovely shaded areas of woodland with streams in extremely hot weather to vast open fields). We receive regular pictures & videos. Our dog is extremely well socialised because of these walks and he sleeps for hours afterwards!

Elodie assisted us with training Leo, our new 8-week old puppy; she came highly recommended. We found her very personable, friendly and showed a natural affinity with puppies. She was methodical, and gave us some very useful tips. We shall continue to work with Elodie going forward and would recommend her to anyone needing puppy training.
Thanks Els. 👍

I can't say enough good things about Els! From the very first session, it was clear that she has a genuine passion for working with dogs. My dog Teddy really liked Els and she handled every challenge with patience, expertise, and a warm, friendly attitude.
Their training techniques are both effective and compassionate. Teddy quickly picked up on new commands and behaviors thanks to the positive reinforcement methods used.
Els has helped improve Teddy's behaviour, but also taught me tips and tricks to continue training at home. If you're looking for a dog trainer I highly recommend Els.

My old greyhound Dolly was very shutdown and sad and I supposed depressed as my other dog a little terrier who was the boss had recently died. Since walking with Freddie she has completely changed..She adores Freddie and is heartbroken as everytime the Amazon man knocks she thinks its Freddie! All walks are videoed and they go to different parks and woods nearby...She works with her on recall and this has improved. She is completely focused on the dogs ...I've seen many dogwalkers on their phones. Freddie watches and interacts with them all individually. I have had many dogs and many dog walkers. But Freddie is in a class above. I feel totally confident when Dolly is with her..It is rare to find this level of care and attention to detail and most important of all love......Sarah

 Bruce and I have just completed the trick training course. We both really enjoyed it and learnt a lot. Elodie has a really clear way of explaining which both of us really responded to. Thank you Elodie and Freddie. Karen & Bruce.

I decided to use Els to help with training with my Cavapoo ( Zella) , being a new dog owner I was struggling at times coping with my new pet . I can only talk positively of Els. I was impressed with her patience, professionalism and genuine love for dogs. She took the time to plan to develop with a structured training plan and discuss this with me ahead of the lessons.

Els made an effort to understand my dog’s unique personality. Her training approach is both effective and compassionate using positive reinforcement. Zella used to struggle with leash pulling and basic commands, is now walking my side and responding beautifully , no more attacking the leash . Els also mad e the training sessions fun for both Zella and me . If you’re looking a knowledgeable, professional and passionate dog trainer who will make a big difference, I can thoroughly recommend Els. Thanks you Els

Elodie's support was invaluable when I adopted our five-month-old cavapoo in November .. I'd never owned a dog before and I was quite nervous at first but Els' dog training techniques, practical, sensible advice, and confidence in dealing with dogs helped me every step of the way. :-) Thank you Elodie!
