I really appreciate the customer service at Tail Tales Academy. When we were originally scheduled, an unexpected issue came up and our original trainer could no longer pick up Rocky.
The Academy quickly called me, apologized, and arranged for a replacement trainer.
Thankfully, we had the opportunity to work with Anthony. With his experience in dog training in military service, he was confident, assertive and effective with our stubborn husky. Rocky had a serious counter-surfing problem, he would even jump on our table. After training with Anthony, Rocky came home and tried to test boundaries, but with the techniques Anthony taught us, he listened right away.
Now, Rocky can sit, lay down, and roll over on command, and his leash manners have improved a lot. Anthony was detailed, went above and beyond with detailed videos during Rocky’s stay and even shared links to all the equipment he used. On drop-off day, he spent a lot of time teaching us how to continue Rocky’s training so we can be successful in the long run. If you get the chance to work with Anthony, I highly recommend him. Thank you!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Gala from Tail Tales Academy, and we truly couldn’t be happier with the experience.
From the very beginning, Gala went above and beyond in every way. Her professionalism, patience, and genuine care for our dog Alfonzo stood out immediately.
She not only helped him make real progress, but also made us feel confident and supported throughout the process. The training was tailored, thoughtful, and delivered with so much dedication. Alfonzo has grown so much, and it’s all thanks to her consistent guidance and encouragement.
We’re continuing with the ongoing training and feel really positive about it because of the solid foundation Gala helped us build. We’ve had such a great experience and genuinely couldn’t recommend her more highly.
Thank you, Gala, and thank you Tail Tales for such an incredible service!

Absolutely amazing to see Maggie our German Shepherd after a course with John. Maggie was so calm and confident, she is now able to mix with other dogs off leash and just enjoy herself. Loose lead walks now mean I can enjoy our walks together and not have to worry about other dogs and people, thank you so very much 😊❤️highly recommend to anyone needing help with their dogs, thank you 🙏 More...

The team was very responsive and helpful and made our needs feel heard and addressed. The level of personalisation for each dog is great. We loved getting updates and seeing his progress so felt very secure sending him away for his training. The support for follow up is also great (as nothing is solved instantly) and it’s helpful to be able to have the opportunity to ask more questions and get help even after the training. Each offering and trainer is different so recommend you do your research because you know what’s right for your dog but this was great for us! The instant calm shift in his behaviour when he came back after just 4 weeks was very comforting to see. More...

I can’t recommend Sarah from Tail Tales Academy enough! My dog had been struggling with reactivity for years, and despite trying different trainers, nothing seemed to work—until we found Sarah. Her approach was truly transformative. After an intensive training program, my dog is now calmer, more responsive, and so much happier. Sarah not only trained my dog but also gave me the confidence and knowledge to continue reinforcing the progress. Her dedication and ongoing support have made such a difference. More...

My dog is now 9 years old, rescued as a street dog. I adopted her 4 years ago in Hong Kong. I was told by the trainer in the rescue center that she was a bit reactive to other dogs.
Previously, I have consulted 3 different trainers including a champion in a dog trainer reality show in USA, a trainer for guide dog in Hong Kong and a local trainer in London. All are one to one session but all are unhelpful. My dog was more and more reactive.
The rehabilitation program of Tail Tales Academy is most effective. Instead of just meeting my dog once per week, my dog lived with the trainer for 28 days. We are very lucky to get Gala as the trainer. She really got a full understanding of who my dog is and when she will react to other dogs.
After 28 days, my dog has great improvement. Gala also taught me how to reinforce what my dog has learnt in that 28 days.When my dog sees other dogs now, she response to my command and let go, no more reactive. Gala not just gave my dog but also me confidence when we walk in a busy street. She also show empathy to me as an ignorant dog owner and encourage me to carry on.
After that 28 days, Gala keeps tracking how my dog is doing and gives me advice.
I would definitely recommend Gala and Tail Tales Academy to any dog owners who are still struggling.
