Susan & Ruby the Spaniel
“Pippa has a wealth of experience with dogs' instincts and behaviour. Her techniques are very much based on positive reinforcement and fun. In the case of our spaniel, that means lots of tasty treats!
We have learnt new strategies as well as insights into our dog's behaviour and how to modify it. Be aware that you need to be committed to lots of consistent practice and repetition as there is rarely a quick fix.”
Fiona & Mabel the Spaniel
“We had such a great experience with Pippa's Pooches!
Mabel, my spaniel, really struggled with recall, which was our main focus, and she has honestly been transformed after our sessions with Pippa.
Pippa is incredibly knowledgeable and gave us some really useful techniques that have made such a difference. She was also brilliant at keeping in touch between sessions, sending helpful tips and videos so we could keep practising at home.
I'd 100% recommend Pippa's Pooches to anyone looking for a dog trainer, especially if you have a spaniel. Thank you so much, Pippa!”
Scott & Oakley the Spaniel
"Pippa has been THE best trainer for our 8 month old spaniel.
She has helped us with a mix of essential training such as loose-lead walking, recall and games to keep his brain stimulated, as well as gun dog training.
We have seen significant improvement in our pups behaviour since we began our sessions and it has been great to make sure his breeds needs are met as a spaniel. Can't wait to do more with Pippa on her gundog classes."
Vicky & Ruby the Chocolate Lab
“I have done many scent workshops and mantrailing with Pippa over the last few years and so jumped at the chance to try some gun dog training with my 5 year old chocolate lab, Ruby.
Both trainers, Pippa and Linda, are very knowledgeable, own gun dog breeds themselves and are professional but fun.
The 6 week course builds the foundations for more advanced training. Ruby gets so much out of the sessions and it really helps us bond.
It is great that Pippa and Linda tailor the training to each dog and handler, so if you are a bit more experienced like us, you can still see progression.
What we have learned is also really helpful in day-to-day life. Can't wait for the next stage.”
Alice & Hector and Huxley, the Working Cocker Spaniels
“I’ve been doing mantrailing with both my dogs (Working Cocker Spaniels) for a few months now, both of them love it.
It’s a different kind of tired for them, they know what they need to do and get so much from it. It’s so impressive to watch. Plus Pippa is amazing!”
Danielle & Molly the Spaniel
“Me and Molly have had 2 training sessions with Pippa, Molly at first was incredibly nervous of pretty much anything and everything ranging from people to other dogs. It took a little while for Molly to feel comfortable, but after the 1st session ended she was a calm little pup.
I’ve just this evening had our 2nd session with Pippa and oh my goodness what a massive difference. Molly was calm, confident and absolutely loving life off lead and even greeted and had a little play with another dog!
After Pippa guided me with recall I also felt incredibly confident knowing that my pup is actually listening to me. I’m so excited for our next session because not only is Pippa incredible with helping dogs, she’s amazing with us humans too! Thank you so much.”
