Rachael is a great teacher. I like the fact that she explains everything very thoroughly, why the dog behaves as it does and how your own behaviour can change it. It's not about \correcting\ the dog's behaviour but about changing your relationship with the dog so that it knows what it should be doing. We saw changes in our dog pretty quickly following Rachael's session with us and we've consulted with her several times since to keep us motivated. I'd recommend her to any dog owner.

My dog was rather aggressive but Rachael helped me to understand things from the dogs perceptive. I changed a few things now my dog no longer feels he has to protect me. He accepts me as the leader result no more aggression
Rachael is like Dr Doolittle - she really can talk to the animals - she is super capable, insightful and has made a huge difference to the way we see and understand both our dogs (one of which is a very frightened rescue) Poppy is a different dog and has grown in confidence as a result of the work Rachael did with us - a HUGE thank you to on behalf of Poppy and us.
We signed up to Talking Paws earlier this year having adopted a rescue dog a few weeks beforehand. Having read some books on the subject of Amichien Bonding (around which the training principles adopted by Four Paws are based) we felt that we already had a good grasp of the general principles involved and simply needed a few pointers. How wrong we were. Talking Paws were able to very quickly diagnose the reasons that our foxhound was displaying certain unwanted behaviours and informed us in detail how our actions were causing or enforcing her behaviours. Many of the principles we had read about were being applied by us incorrectly or inconsistently and we were advised how to put them right. Where we had been doing things correctly simply having the re-assurance from someone who had been through what we had telling us to keep at it was extremely helpful and gave us the much needed encouragement to persevere. Talking Paws provided a bespoke training plan and offered a lifetime follow up advice service at no additional cost. Both of these have been fantastic and it’s great to know that you can pick up the phone to a trained professional with any query no matter how small whenever you need to. We would not hesitate to recommend Talking Paws to all dog owners and cannot thank them enough for all of their help and advice. James & Suvi
Walking my 2 dogs was becoming so stressfulll. They pulled, barked, lurched at every dog we met and took no notice of my commands. There was no focus on me at all. After reading Jan Fennell's 'Dog Listener', I found 'Talking Paws' and Rachael on the website. She came to my home 2 months ago & her advice has been invaluable. Based on Jan's philosophy, Rachael patiently & clearly explained the principals of Amichien Bonding to me & and drew up individual plans for me and the dogs to follow. I have followed those guidelines ever since & thanks to Rachael I now have 2 dogs, who focus on me and there is an understanding between us that I never would have thought possible. Thank you Rachael
