Say hello to Robin!
Robin, a gorgeous Bernese Mountain Dog. She’s a sensitive soul and her gaurdians wanted to give her the best start in life and learning, so they got in touch for some professional support and guidance and enrolled on my Puppy Discovery Pakcage (Grouped Workshops).
Over the course of the package her confidence grew, along with her engagement and social skills. It was wonderful to see her progress, and I am pleased to say she is thriving and living an adventurous and fulfilled life with her wonderful family.
Here’s what Gemma, Robin’s guardian, had to say:
“We've been taking our puppy, Robin, to the puppy discovery course and it has been fantastic. One of the things we appreciated most was learning how to better understand and read what Robin needed, and how to respond to her behaviour in a way that helped her succeed.
Ellie provided lots of personalised advice tailored specifically to Robin, which made a huge difference. There was always time during the sessions to ask questions and get individual guidance, alongside the whole-class activities. The balance between group learning and one-to-one support was excellent.”
“We've learned so much, and Robin has come on brilliantly. We'd highly recommend this course to anyone looking for positive, thoughtful puppy training.”
