''Jenny has helped me with my reactive dog. I attended her group for reactive dogs and so much progress was made. She made time for you to understand your dog and helped and gave advice in lots of other areas too. Jenny is so calm and patient even my reactive dog loved her! We will be making use of Feral Hearts dog training and solutions again.
Highly recommend''

When you work with me we work as a team. You know your dog best! And your input matters to me! After all, you are the one training your dog day in, day out!
We will probably work well together If...
You want to:
-
Feel more confident and clear on how to resolve the issues you are faced with.

Gain a deeper understanding of your dog and their behaviour
-
Have fun with your dog and make the changes needed for change to happen!
(If nothing changes, nothing changes after all!)
'I have a 1yr old ID who we've had from a puppy. He was a difficult puppy and then he hit adolescence!
Jen has been our saviour. Honestly believe we would've rehomed him if we hadn't employed Jen.
She helped me understand his behaviour and development, taught me how to manage him during this difficult time.
If something doesn't work for us she'll find another way or a different approach. Training sessions are fun and her support has been unwavering.'

By focusing in on the solutions offered in the 90-day 'disorderly dogs' support program you can go from...
Feeling Overwhelmed > Gaining clarity
Feeling stressed > Feeling confident
Feeling Frustrated > Having more freedom!
When we work together we look at the whole picture; your dog's past learning experiences, their environment, their genetics, and their individual health and personality too.
Then we figure out the best way forward! TOGETHER!
Our program has a unique offer providing a mix of in-person one-to-one learning PLUS access to group work out in the real world if that's what you and your dog need.
''The follow-up support from the 1-2-1 sessions has been fantastic and Jenny is always there for words of encouragement and tips and tricks. Jenny has encouraged us to look into medical reasons for behavioural issues and supported us in this process.
Our life is now a lot more manageable, we’re starting to be able to do “regular” dog and human activities!
Jenny has helped us to understand how our dog is thinking and how to set him up for success to make everyday life much more enjoyable.
We would 100% recommend Jenny to anybody looking for advice, training, guidance and help with their pooch.''
- Hannah and Ben Coleman

No pushy sales calls here!
''Honestly, Jen is a miracle worker, she came a couple of years ago and solved some issues instantly. Recently our dog was getting more reactive, especially to the door and visitors, and within an hour Jen has already made such a difference. She is calm, amazing with the dog, and just fantastic, thanks Jen.''

I contacted Jenny after Bear was viscously attacked by an off lead dog while we were out walking. The incident left me extremely anxious about getting out with Bear for walks. We also, needed to work on Bears recall when other dogs were about. Jenny has totally changed out lives. She not only helped me recognise and read other dogs behaviours but also helped me to learn about Bears natural instincts and how to work with them. Bear is well socialised and extremely friendly with other dogs but sadly that has got him into a good few sticky situations with dogs who do not like the attention. Helping Bear and I to work around those situations with distraction and positive reinforcement has totally changed our outings. I now have the ‘tools’ to work with and I look forward to our daily adventures with the enthusiasm that I had totally lost. Bear is absolutely thriving on this new approach… Thank you Jenny, you are an angel xxx

''Jenny has worked wonders on my two spaniels who struggle with loose lead walking. Jenny was really easy to talk to and took the time to listen to all of my concerns and our unique situation. She then provided an intensive session of learning, demoing and practising and then sent me an action plan of all the effective and novel recommendations we had worked on so I could easily implement them at home. I feel very positive, supported and motivated whilst working with Jenny and I’m sure with her guidance we will get my crazy beasts tamed''
