Feedback from customers who have attended dog training classes with Windrush Dogs For Life

Nolton Haven, November 2005
What have you most enjoyed about the course and why?
Scooby's improvement with his recall because now I can take him to the beach let him off without worrying.
I think I have achieved my personal aims and I am pleased with the results.
We have bonded well and he now has a lot more respect for me and other people, especially when on walks.

We have most enjoyed learning to understand Keith and realising the positive effect it has on his behaviour. Keith has improved so much and our home life is much calmer and happier! We have more fun - less frustration.
Tammy and John with Keith the Dalmation whom they rescued after a string of homes. Far from the mad hound he was when they collected him, Keith is now the loving, intelligent dog he was always meant to be.
As our second time with Windrush, I like the improvement to the course, Mabel loved the new dog mats! As always a highly enthusiastic and motivated course leader who basically loves dogs. Also love all new games.

Difficult to choose what we most enjoyed but watching Sara really enjoy herself with Blitzen. The course has only affected our relationship with him positively.

What have you most enjoyed about the course and why?
Interacting with our puppy and Katie being more involved with training.

We have most enjoyed the small numbers in class- very personal and the socialisation of puppies. Positive results. Knowing Wilbur has loved every minute. A trainer who is passionate about dogs and their welfare.

"I have most enjoyed being able to talk and share problem solving. The continued support and reassurance has been great."
"We came away with a really solid foundation for Toki's training and will be able to build on it as he grows."
"Toki has responded so well to his training, it has been great to watch him improve on a weekly basis, he's happy and eager to learn new things, which in turn makes me happy."
Gaynor Williams and her amazingly responsive Golden Retriever cross puppy, Toki. September 2007

"We have enjoyed all aspects of the course, the only drawback was travelling from Carmarthen!"
"The course was perfect - perhaps you could branch out to Carmarthen."
"We both feel we understand Louie a lot better and training has really helped us to build a strong relationship with him."

"I have most enjoyed the fun way Rex and I have learned to train obedience and the respect it has given to me from him"
"He and I have gained skills I didn't think were possible from a young puppy"
"He has more respect and listens to me." 
From Sue Nicholls and bright little Cocker Spaniel cross Lakeland Terrierr, Rex, aged four and a half months at the start of their Foundation Clicker Training Course. March 2007
"I have most enjoyed the small, friendly classes and the home visit which was very useful. I also enjoyed playtime for the dogs at the end of each class and I really enjoyed the training circuits."
"I have least enjoyed trying to keep Tess still and calm while listening".
"We understand Tess more and the clicker trainig has given us something fun to do with her other than play. It has been very rewarding to when she she gets things right."
From Ellie Dutton aged 13 with her bright and wriggly labrador x pointer puppy, Tess. June 2007
"I have enjoyed teaching Bryn because its cool"
"I have least enjoyed listening because I'm only eight".
"I enjoyed it all but it would have been better for us if there was a class in St Davids." You only need to ask - courses in St Davids start in July 2007!
How has the course affected your relationship with your dog?
"We are very close now"
From Joe Trickett aged 8 with his gentle and intelligent terrier cross puppy Bryn. May 2007
"I have most enjoyed the time to focus and train the puppies"
" I have achieved my personal aims but would like a longer course and more time to train" Progressive courses are now eight sessions long
How has the course affected your relationship with your dog(s)?
"I love the puppies more and more".
From Sally Trickett - Joe and James' mum. May 2007
"I have most enjoyed the different tricks we have taught Cai"
"I have least enjoyed bending down". Unfortunately Cai won't grow much taller, unlike James, but the bending gets less with more training!
" Fab course - would like it to be in St Davids and for it to be longer" Done!
James Trickett aged 14 with his adorable and clever terrier cross puppy, Cai. May 2007
"I have most enjoyed teaching a trick because it's fun and different"
"I think the course has brought us much closer and built our trust."
