Hi Kim, I just wanted to say a massive thank you to you. I know we haven’t spoken in a bit but all the training and advice you provided for us has genuinely changed mine and Beau’s lives. I really can’t thank you enough! He’s in such a better place and I feel like I…
We came to Kim for help with our dog Tinny’s reactivity issues. Kim is one of the nicest, warmest, and most patient human beings we’ve ever met. Kim listened to our troubles and worries before we even booked our first session and made plans specific to our case. The methods and skills Kim had to…
My wife and I were first introduced to Kimbra from Working with Woofers when we joined some fellow dog parents for group training. We enjoyed the training so much that we reached out to Kimbra for further one on one training to address our dog’s (Barkley) reactivity issues. We found Kimbra’s approach to be very…
Kim has been the most wonderful trainer to work with! She has really helped me with my reactive pup and given me all the tools I need to succeed. My dog (Whiskey) became reactive as a puppy when he was scared by off-leash dogs and I didn’t know what to do until Kim was recommended…
Kim rebuild my relationship with my little boy. I have a reactive Border Collie with multiple behavior issues — barks at small dogs, fights with small dogs, pulls the leash, doesn’t listen to me even he understands me. When I realized our relationship was getting worse, I reached out to Kim. During that 1 hour…
Kim is one of the most dedicated, kind trainers you will ever meet! She finds ways to help you solve the issues with your dog that suit them and work best for you. I saw her with my dog Jake for reactivity and her sessions have done wonders! We had our first walk with absolutely…
Kim is the puppy whisperer! She gave me the strategies and support to help me work with my anxious puppy Max. As a result his reactive barking has been significantly reduced. The difference in a few short weeks has been beyond amazing, Max and I can now both enjoy walks along with his puppy BFF Millie…

From Puppy School to Daycare — their friendship just keeps growing! 🪿🪿
Earlier on this year, I had a Puppy School group with two puppies named Goose in it and one called Rooster believe it or not, so it was in a unique class.
It’s so heart warming to see that both these little geese who went to puppy school together now enjoy each other’s company at daycare to this day!
Big boy Goose is working on separation anxiety training with me at the moment and doing very well and I heard recently from little goose’s dad Dan, who said he is thriving and has the best recall in the park!
I love to hear how my past puppies school students are doing so if anyone else out there is reading this, that came to puppy school let me know how your now teenager is doing??? I would love to hear from you…..
I should add that big boy little Goose is wet in the second photo!

Sleep = trust. Trust = progress in Separation Anxiety training!
This clever little Bedlington Boy is only three weeks into his SA training journey and has given me and his dad a couple of welcomed surprises so early on in the process.
Is this normal in separation anxiety training - NO but I’ll take it any day 😊
He has a few changes coming up soon that may well bring us down to earth, but in this sort of training you need to celebrate the wins when they come and he’s had a couple of BIG ones already!
His dad Liam is doing an amazing job supporting him through his SA training and making sure that he is not left alone to panic. This protects all the work he is doing to help Teddy learn to feel safe in his own company….

Ever noticed your dog does something strange when walking or going downstairs?
It just might be worth investigating and definitely worth taking some footage to show your Vet next time you visit them.
What has is this got to do with behaviour? Sometimes patella problems can be painful or at the very least cause discomfort.
Thankfully for these boys they were low-grade and manageable.
But we always need to rule our pain as a factor in behaviour.

Meet Summer 🌸—this gorgeous girl is working through some anxiety-related behaviour struggles.
Her mum Emma shared some footage with me of her as a six week old puppy and we can see that even way back then she was timid .
Carry that forward to teenage hood which includes secondary fear phases and she is struggling .
However, we will work to gradually build her confidence, make sure she is not overwhelmed by implementing a management plan, and start gradually working towards changing her emotional response to things that she is unsure of.
This sort of training is challenging as you cannot completely control the environment particularly outside.
Sometimes it can feel like two steps forward and one step back, but with consistency,patience and support we can make a difference.
Summer has the support of her parents Emma and Leo, myself and a core group of doggy friends, including her mum and sister and a little friend she met at the park that she loves.
This support network will help her immensely on her journey to a more normal life…
