Dog Training

TLDR: Please avoid, especially if you have an anxious or fearful dog.

Me and my partner reached out to Julie after recently adopting a young dog who is very anxious and fearful of roads, hoping to get some advice around helping the dog settle in and feel more confident. We chose her because all of her reviews were 5 stars and glowing with praise.

The main advice Julie gave was that we have to assert ourselves as alphas to make him feel more safe, and that we need to expose him to stressful situations but remain calm and positive - if we act like he is in danger then he will think he is in danger.

Her advice kind of made sense to us but also it was at complete odds with our experience so far: We tried exposing him to the roads and being calm and positive and he got worse. We scaled back the amount of time outside and took him home when he became panicked and things improved.

We told Julie this repeatedly but she simply would not accept, and said that we were the problem and being soft. When we tried going on a walk outside using her methods he was the most frightened we had seen him. We challenged her again and she was short tempered and even swore at me.

At the end of the 4 hours our dog was clearly tired and wanted to be left alone but regardless Julie sat in his bed and held him up so that we could take a photo of them, presumably to help her business, which we both found very uncomfortable.

Since the session our dog has been noticeably worse. He no longer comes down the stairs by himself for walks, and has been more distressed once outside. After doing more research around dog behaviour we learnt that the advice she gave has no basis in reality, but are in fact outdated myths which have been debunked by research.

We were simply seeking to help our dog the best we could and fear we’ve gone in the wrong direction because of Julie’s intervention. I'm not usually one to give 1 star reviews but I really don't want anyone with an already traumatised dog to unwittingly cause that dog even more harm.

Dog training is an unregulated industry, please be careful out there!

Julie is a lovely, warm person who is clearly an animal lover. She adored our puppy and spent time understanding him and then training him. It was wonderful to watch and learn, our first leash training at the park was unforgettable. I would highly recommend her. More...

Julie came to our house today and gave us some great tips and rules in managing our cocker spaniel Buddy’s behaviour! She also went on a structured walk with us to the park and gave us some more tips that were extremely beneficial to Buddy! We have already noticed a slight difference in Buddy’s behaviour and will continue to carry out these rules! Thank you so much Julie x More...

Julie came to our house and spent three hours working with us and our dog. She was absolutely amazing, we literally cannot believe the difference she has made. She left us with lots of really useful tips and techniques which we are still using and we are seeing daily improvements in our dog.
Julie is fantastic - we cannot recommend her highly enough!

We had a session with Julie today and it was fantastic. We spent the morning with Julie, and she showed us the ticks of dog training at home, followed by a practise at the park nearby. She also explained to us how our dog thinks when she behaved in a certain way. We learned many tricks and tips from her and we could not be happier! More...

Julie is incredibly helpful and a very well-rounded dog trainer and behaviourist. Her consideration for the actual psychology behind dog behaviour makes all of the training very straight forward and logical. She was able to give me advice about separation anxiety over the phone ahead of our session, and during the session she went above and beyond to help with all of the things I needed help with for my six month old cockapoo. This included leash training, jumping up, biting, and other things. My dog immediately liked her, and she was able to calm him down as well as teach me how to calm him down. There was an immediate and noticeable difference straight away after our session, during which she stayed for as long as was needed to cover everything that I needed help with. Julie is lovely and I feel so much more confident that I can train a happy and healthy dog, her holistic approach is excellent. I highly recommend her if you’re looking to learn and implement evidence based behavioural changes with your dog. More...

Julie was wonderful. I have a 7 year old rescue. Julie came to my house and worked with the dog for just a couple of hours. Even just in that short time I feel I have been given these amazing skills to help him settle, calm his anxiety and help both of us walk and enjoy the outside together. Thank you so much Julie More...

I was having persistent problems with my spaniel, anxiety and excessive barking especially. I contacted Julie and she was amazingly helpful. She visited and assessed the situation calmly. She soon had a rapport with the dog, plus she also gave me very useful tips and advice about how to avoid these problems in future. The problems have basically gone. Julie, thank you for your help!

Dog Training

I've undergone multiple dog training courses and tried various home training methods, but Julie's approach stands out as the easiest to follow, implement, and, remarkably, it delivers almost instant and amazing results. The instructions and guidance provided by Julie proved to be invaluable, emphasizing the importance of patience as the key to success. The learning experience and training approach were truly fantastic.

Blu, our dog, is now much more relaxed and no longer rushes around like a hyperactively chasing birds and sqirrels. Our entire day and walks has become noticeably calmer after 1 session with Julie. Julie's method lays a strong foundation and offers an intelligent way to address unwanted behaviors, such as hyperactivity and pulling the lease, attacking other animals etc.

In an exciting breakthrough, during our recent park visit, Blu exhibited no barking or anxiety issues for the first time! I wholeheartedly recommend Julie to anyone facing dog behavior issues. She exudes a calm and loving personality that our furry friend, Blu, responds to wonderfully. Thank you so much, Julie!
