Sarah + Jagger July 25
We have a German Shepherd x Akita puppy. Now 11 months old. He has been very well behaved until reaching 6 months old when we experienced some regression. We had a loving but very boisterous, large puppy, full of testosterone and hormones and not very good at controlling his emotions. This resulted in a few horrible moments on walks, having a large dog that I couldn't recall.
After I became very anxious on walk because of it, I knew we needed some help and I was recommended Dorset Muscahounds.
We decided to embark on a course of 6 training sessions, one walk together and one with our puppy and the trainer alone. This was great as Natasha the trainer could work on him alone and then teach me how to do it and help me regain control. I have learned so much from Natasha and feel so much more relaxed now on a walk. I not only understand the psychology of our dog I also know what to expect, how to avoid certain circumstances, how to overcome problems and more than anything how to disengage our puppy instead of distracting him. If you are going through the puppy blues. I would urge you to reach out to Natasha. She is so welcoming, kind and full of help, ideas and knowledge and I would recommend her to anyone struggling. I will miss out sessions. I ended up booking another 6 sessions because loved it so much. Our puppy Jagger is still WIP but I now have the tools to work with and manage the situation until it becomes second nature to him.

Natasha is absolutely brilliant with our border terrier Reg. Natasha is constantly in training mode and her time/effort has contributed to the Reg we have today.

Natasha helped train our young pup who was more than a handful; her experience, understanding & friendly manner made her an instant hit with both pup & owners! Our boy is now 6 & still adores his regular walks with Natasha & his other doggy friends! Natasha is extremely experienced & a fountain of knowledge. Thoroughly recommended :)

We went to our vets as was having a few issues with our golden retriever, they recommended using a behaviourist and gave me a few numbers to try, Natasha was recommended by our actual Vet, so i rang her 1st, just from speaking to her on the phone i felt at ease and very comfortable discussing our issues we were having with our boy she sounded just what we needed so decided to book a session in with her, the 1st session Natasha came to our home and i was very impressed took the time to listen to our problems and what we wanted and gave us some great advice which we put in place straight away we have seen Natasha several more times and each time we see her she sees improvements in our crazy boy which is great for us to hear, sometimes it can be very frustrating and feel you are not getting anywherea, each time we meet she gives us tips and things to work on communication is brilliant and Is a great behaviourist to work with and would not hesitate to recommend to anyone having problems with their dogs

Natasha, thank you for being amazing.
We first met Natasha when Niecey attended her training classes. People say bullmastiffs are stubborn but Natasha was able to use various techniques to motivate her.
Niecey is now lucky enough to enjoy weekly group walks with Dorset Muscahounds and I would highly recommend.
