What Customers Are Saying 

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐  

“Noodle completed a 39 day board and train program, and the results are outstanding.  Communication was consistent from day one. We received clear daily updates, providing real context on what was trained and what Noodle was struggling with that day. This made it easy to trust the process because we never felt out of the loop.  The training itself proved effective. Noodle left the program more settled, confident, and better regulated both at home and in public. Her obedience foundations improved significantly. Sit, wait, and down are now reliable across different settings. Loose lead walking and focus in distracting environments improved steadily. The public access work was a standout, hospital visits, equipment, noise, staff movement, and announcements. She maintained her position and chose handler check ins over startle responses.  The behaviour work targeted the right issues, and the handover confirms it. Impulse control and stealing behaviour were structured with repetitions and clear cues like LEAVE and DROP or TAR. Practical instructions for real life situations were provided, including how to prevent stealing from turning into a chase, how to rebuild calm toy play, and how to reward correctly when she gives items up.

The home transition support was excellent. The handover provided simple routines that can be followed easily without guesswork. Kitchen boundaries, visitor greetings, place and settle, and the full walk and exit routine are written clearly to help maintain progress. The walk routine alone is worth mentioning, it reshaped arousal into a predictable sequence, and it’s evident. Calm gear up, calm door work, structured waiting, and controlled transitions help create a happy, controlled dog with manageable excitement.  Grooming and handling training also played a crucial role. Regular grooming, bathing, coat maintenance, and calm cooperation built practical, everyday skills beyond just commands.

If you want a programme where the training results last, the handover makes all the difference. You leave with a trained dog and a clear playbook to keep the learning ongoing at home.

Thanks, Empowered Paws, for everything!”
