Julie loves dogs!
She knows how to get into their heads, and their owners too. My kelpie pup has thrown up particular challenges and I've particularly appreciated Julie's calm, positive approach. We are on our way to having a very special dog, thank you Julie! 

I’m so pleased I decided to go ahead with a couple of training sessions for Phoebe.
Julie was able to give me a training plan to continue with and the insight I needed to observe and understand my dog and respond to her needs much better. It really is about educating and training the humans involved!
Thanks Julie for your caring and loving approach! 

Julie was an amazing teacher.
Her talks and the way she taught were really helpful, gentle and kind.
We have loved going to puppy school, especially with Julie. 

There are so many things I appreciate about Julie. Foremost is her fountain of knowledge and capacity to convey her expertise in ways I can immediately understand and apply. I also love that her mission is to educate and not shame people for making mistakes. (Let me tell you, I have done plenty of them!) And not least, she is a joy to work with. 

Hi Julie,  
Emma my Jack Russell and I would like to say a big thank you for your Dog Blog. We have both learnt a lot. I thought she was being naughty when she didn’t do as I asked her to do the first time, now I know she is in dog land and cannot quite hear me till I get her interest in what I am asking of her, it has made a lot better relationship between us both.  
Thank you, Julie, more please! 

Julie is an excellent dog trainer.
A friend recommended her, so I booked four private lessons hoping to learn some techniques to help calm my young schnauzer, Shelley. Julie was friendly and knowledgeable and gave simple explanations. I saw improvements in my dog's behaviour after the first lesson. I highly recommend Julie's services.

I have been learning about dog behaviour and training in Julie's puppy and dog classes since November 2018 to the present time [end 2019]. Julie is so inspiring and I hope to be a dog trainer too.
I love Julie's understanding for dogs and people. The recognition of how dogs and people connect is integral to their relationship. Julie teaches people and their dogs and puppies with empathy.
The positive reinforcement training strengthens the bond between dogs and their people by mutual respect, fun and choice. This is a wonderful resource for everyone to learn with their companion canine friends.
Thank you

Julie is patient and excellent at interpreting dog behaviour.
We have already learnt so much about how to help our young border collie learn, be stimulated and above all have fun while she's doing it. And I might add, Julie is as patient with the owners as she is with the dog!
Absolutely recommended. 

Many thanks for another thoughtful blog Julie. I much appreciate you sharing your knowledge and experience.  Your articles always make me think, make notes to ponder later and then bring into my relationship with my dog.  I'm starting a notebook called "Julie's Gems!"

We had Julie out to our home to help with our 6-month-old Staffy x, she had been jumping and bitting a lot, we have a nearly 5-year-old child, and nothing was stopping her bitting all of us! The change after Julie’s lesson was absolutely amazing. Julie was fantastic with Nella and included us in everything she did with her, it was great for us and Nella. Would recommend her to anyone, very friendly, professional, and great with kids too! Thank you, Julie

I have a Bernese Mountain dog. I have 5 kids. I’m a big believer in what having a dog does in making it a family. To me it goes beyond words and understanding, having that fellowship and loyalty from the animal, but then also, the opportunity for the human to serve and connect and develop discipline in order to provide and protect and love.
 I recall you mentioning in a different topic that there are a million trainers and YouTube videos out there. And you’re right. However there are not many that would invest the time or money in this workshop, and then put forth the mental fortitude you have - simply in this topic post. Your passion and clarity are inspiring. I would hire and refer you to everyone. I wanted to make sure I shared this before our time together ended. 

Just had my first session with Julie and it was terrific. Julie understood my concerns and helped me with some techniques to address them and we saw results with my dog and I very quickly. Looking forward to next week.

Ruby has come such a long way since being the super excited little puppy with too much to say. We can now walk past dogs almost completely comfortably. Julie helped Ruby and myself to become socially accepted into the dog world. Ruby comes out with me quite a lot and is happy to walk beside me, when she was younger this wouldn't of been the case. Ruby is now a year and 5 months old. My little princess! 

Julie has been a real inspiration to me.
I have learned so much, Like how important my relationship with my dog is - not just from my perspective but his as well. Really seeing him as a separate being with his own needs, likes and rich emotional life. And what a difference it makes to teach my dog with kindness, love AND skill. I have a long way to go but the magic that Julie has nurtured in our connection and joy with Oscar is priceless!
Thanks Julie, can't wait for the next instalment.

I engaged Julie to help out with our 6-month-old Groodle who needed some structure and training. Our delightful puppy has a lot of energy, is very bold and at times quite boisterous. I found Julie very knowledgeable, professional, warm, caring and personable. Julie has given me many strategies to improve his behaviour from walking correctly on a leash, jumping up on people, being comfortable around other dogs and not chasing our cat. Julie encouraged me not to give up on our puppy, as he was very tiring. I would highly recommend Julie and her excellent services. 

We had a very enjoyable visit from Julie to assist us with our almost one year old Schnoodle. Julie is kind, knowledgeable and has a natural way with both dogs and humans! Twiglet's responses over the hour Julie was with us showed great improvement in the area of concern and we would highly recommend her.
Thank you from us all Julie
