WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT CALLANDER K9

Thank you so much Leah! I have a very happy and tired Sid

Anne Gordon

Fantastic! Professional and reliable services for our furbaby. Leah is very knowledgeable

Wendy Munro

Hamish my rottweiler loves her to bits!!

Lorenza Tunstall

We attended the fun agility 6 week course. The fun element was there from the start and we were both put at our ease. Leah worked out each dogs personality and made sure everyone was safe. I hadn’t realised that the fun agility would require me to run round a field shouting instructions. Good exercise for me too. I am no spring chicken! By the end of the 6th week we did a full circuit. Poppy had been unsure of one of the elements and with ideas and bribery, for Poppy, not me, she did it 3 times on week 6. Leah was just excited as I was. As well as the manic bit, the dogs learned to switch off when another dog was doing the course. There was no judgment just complete fun for all. Crufts here we come…….well maybe not!

I really recommend training with Leah. We did the 3 week reliable recall workshop. You wouldn’t expect a fully trained dog after three weeks, but Leah shows you lots of games to play to improve your relationship with your dog and get them coming back to you.

Anna Clark

Thanks so much Leah, yesterday was fantastic. We’ve done some of your training this morning and going great, postman has made a delivery without Barney going berserk and I could really see his concentration on the walk. Really excited to see his progress. Many Thanks

Marie Maclean

Thank you for all your time and effort with us over the last 6/7 weeks. The weeks seem to have just flown by!! I have really enjoyed the sessions and have felt the pups have really benefited from them too. Lots of tips and tricks which have definitely helped keep them entertained and give me some light relief haha!! You have the patience of a saint… especially with so much going on but you gave everyone an opportunity to ask individual questions and have definitely provided support to each and every one of us!

Janet McLelland

Leah is an an amazing dog trainer, very knowledgeable about dog behaviour and training. My dog absolutely adores going for walks with her and his doggie friends (he’ll wait by the window looking for her!) Even although he is still a pup, he is very big and thanks to Leah’s help with socialisation and obedience courses, he gets along well with other dogs. We can not recommend her highly enough.

Excellent service and Leah really spend’s time making sure my 2 dogs are well looked after and tired after their walk.
