Thankyou Helene in helping with Fable. Helene was very patient and helpful and Fable excelled in doing as he was asked without to much fuss. He has stopped pulling and plays with the children happily without the mouthing.

Scar a
German Shepherd Dog
about
Scar was attacked by some dogs and had become fearful. The care giver resorted to muzzling him. We took him back to basics and done some modification work. He no longer uses a muzzle and will interact with some dogs

Bambi a Jack Russell
review
When I adopted Bambi, she didn't like men and was a problem when walking her daily. After many weeks of training she now volunteers going up to some men for a fuss. Many thanks to Helene and her team for their support over the last 18 months. Thankyou from the bottom of my heart. I could not of done it without you

Evie a Chihauhau Cross
about
Evie is a rescue. Her previous owner, who was elderly, forgot to feed her, so was super excited when food was around, so was very demanding. She learnt things very quickly and loves to please you. Her food issues are still ongoing

Cal a Belgium Malinois
about
Also known as Gator, he came with many issues, as the care giver didn't know anything about the breed and was disabled. He was taken back to basics and once learnt progressed onto learning to walk with a disability scooter. He is doing really well and loves the jobs given to help with his high drive. And he loves going out with the scooter.

Max

about
Max was taken back to basics to help the bonding process as he was a rescue dog. He did very well and achieved Silver Award, but sadly retired due to health issues. He still assists in group session when he is up for it.

Flash
Springer / Labrador cross
Review
Flash came to me with many behavioural problems, as at 18 months old she had never seen the inside of a house. She displayed serious aggression to my other dogs.
1 year later and extensive training, a change of food and her health issues managed, she has become a valued member of my household.
After many tears shed, when things did not go to plan and the enormous help of HDW dog training, we managed to turn it around
I would like to thank all those involved, as without their help Flash would have been put to sleep

Cass
German Shepherd
Review
Cass was uses as a bait dog against 15 Jack Russells and had been ill treated by the breeder, that owned her.
She showed aggression especially towards small dogs and men.
Helene has worked wonders with her and it has been a long haul, but the improvements are astonishing. Unfortunately, because of this and the amount of time and money that it was taking, I felt that it was for the best interest for my dogs welfare, that someone else would be better qualified as her owner, as this was not a breed I was familiar with.
After much discussion and because of the bond Helene had earnt with Cass, she decided to take her on .
Thanks again Helene, as much as you worked wonders and still some to do, I would still recommend your services to anyone that asks, but also warn them that it is not a short thing, and that some issues take longer to resolve

UPDATE
Cass is still ongoing but we can now meet up with some dogs without any incident and she now has a close bond with my partner. She tolerates some children in short bursts and will greet strangers when introduced properly.

Bounty
Huntaway/Collie cross
Review
Most important thing first: our dog Bounty loves Val!
She is a great dog trainer and taught our puppy and us so much. Especially during a difficult time after Bounty was spayed and was scared of the whole world, she kept coming up with new approaches on how to get her out of the house again and make her feel more comfortable.
During our normal training sessions Val mixes old material with new, so Bounty keeps improving her existing skills but never gets bored and we come home with a new skill every time.
We really like how friendly and helpful Val is and how she doesn't shy away from telling us what we are doing wrong, that's why we've been seeing her for more than a year now.
Thanks for helping us become better dog owners and Bounty an even greater dog
