I was searching the internet for local dog training..and boy am i gald to find shona at gracious dogs..the initial phone call that was supposed to be for 15 mins was almost an hour and she didn't care or rush..we talked bout my fur baby and what i wanted to get out of the training..we decided first session would be at home and shona gave me lots of pointers and advice we put in place and they worked... The next sessions was at local park i was so nervous and worried about taking her off the l...

Shona is so lovely and has really helped us and our puppy a lot especially with walking calmly on the lead, highly recommend!

We've had trainers in the past who haven't looked beyond the issue itself, whereas Shona has explored the root of the problems and taken it back to basics. But the main thing I love about her approach is that she prioritises keeping the dog comfortable and confident, because that's the best state for them to learn in. In just 3 sessions I've seen massive improvements in my 7 year old toy poodle, and although we have a long way to go we're lo...

We did the Puppy Primary School which comprised of 5 weekly 1 hour sessions. Our 7 month old border collie loved them and we have definitely seen an improvement in his overall obedience - thank you Shona!

We came to Shona for help with our reactive rescue dog George, he had many issues which were complex and needed dealing with. Shona taught us many new ways to understand and deal with George's behaviour. Since working with Shona, George has come on in leaps and bounds and has taken really well to the training methods provided. Shona has been a life saver and has supported us so well throughout George's development. We couldn't recommend her enough. Thanks Shona for all your help and support!
