Client Testimonials

"Ellie has been working with two of my dogs over the last few months and has been absolutely fantastic! Roo and Cora rescues and have had very different previous experiences - Ellie has amazing insight into dog behaviour; and how to adapt approaches to each of their needs. Our sessions with her have made a real difference; I have seen massive improvements for both of them. Roo has always been challenging, his early life in Spain was very restricted; and everything in his world subsequently results in massive overwhelm for him causing stress, anxiety and over stimulation, he gets to sensory overload very quickly! Ellie has gradually built up the work we have done with him, to find ways to help him feel more relaxed, and engage with training; and how to respond when he shows the signs of reaching his limits. All of this I am able to apply at home; and continue to see Roo improve over time.

Roo and Cora love her, and enjoy seeing her, our sessions are always good fun, and Ellie is great at explaining what we are hoping to achieve, I have learnt huge amounts too, especially about observing the dogs and understanding their behaviour, and indicators of how they are feeling. Would totally recommend Ellie especially if you are struggling with a reactive dog; and you need help!"
