WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING:

  • Sheridan has been a true blessing for my dog Bamboo. Before working with Sheridan, Bamboo was anxious and often seemed confused by my commands. Sheridan's clear and confident approach to dog training has made all the difference. She's not only helped me understand Bamboo's nervous tendencies but also taught me how to communicate with Bamboo effectively. Sheridan's deep understanding of dog behaviour and tailored techniques have really transformed Bamboo into a more relaxed and happy dog. I'm incredibly grateful for her expertise and the positive impact she's had on our lives.

  • Bodhi is a mixed bread Labrador x Lurcher, with a lot of energy and acute prey drive for smaller animals. We have had Bodhi since he was a year old and although we felt we made a lot of progress with his behaviour, we were still struggling with his reactivity. Our main concern was that he had started reacting negatively towards other dogs. Sheridan straight away showed me how to connect with Bodhi using correct lead control. She modelled in great detail how to redirect his attention and avoid any negative reactions. Just a few simple changes to the way we walk him on lead was really helpful. Learning about socialising correctly on first meeting with other dogs was also really useful. Since our session with Sheridan, Bodhi has really changed course. I believe because of the work we did, Bodhi now feels we’re in control of most situations and he doesn’t feel the need to react. Of course, it’s a journey for us and Bodhi and we’re still working on it everyday. That’s a really important lesson Sheridan discussed too; that it's never a quick fix but we were so grateful to gain advice that allowed us to confidently continue that journey with him. Thank you!

  • We had Sheridan care for my two dogs whilst my daughter got married she was very professional and listened to me about the dogs needs, the dogs seemed happy and content around her.

    Carrie

  • We couldn’t be happier to be working with Sheridan in training our Welsh Terrier puppy Otto, and regularly recommend her to others! Sheridan’s taught us how to engage with our puppy in a language [way] that he understands & has taught us so many valuable training lessons specially tailored to meet his personal and breed needs. Training doesn’t stop, and we’re so grateful to have Sheridans ongoing support as well as weekly doggy day care.

    Lisa

  • We asked Sheridan for help with our 8 month old Jack Russell Terrier, specifically to address his walking on the lead issues. She totally exceeded our expectations! She's very knowledgeable, patient, friendly and even helped us with techniques to correct other issues. Our pups lead manners have improved dramatically after only one session. We can't recommend Sheridan enough!t Item

Sheridan's balanced approach to dog training focuses on the fundamentals of your relationship with your pup, and this is the key to success with any human/dog relationship.
