K9 Services NZ - Dog Training & Behaviour

Winston ( my blue heeler) and I have been going to Liz for one on one sessions for approx x 8 sessions and the improvement is incredible . We had been going to the local obedience club since he was 12 weeks old and we had done the basics, but the sessions were very group based and no individual issues or training was ever offered.. in fact I was told my handling was shit..so as Winston got close to 2 years old he was starting to become very lease reactive to other dogs when out walking, and thank god I found Liz, she has helped us both understand and learn techniques and skills to remedy this situation. Along with that Liz guides us each time to new challenges and keeps me wanting to learn more, she makes sure I have homework & I train at home so much more and we are seeing fantastic results. Liz has taught me that there is more to this dog training than just sit , down & heel I am learning how to read & be pro active with any doggie situation, and I finish each session wanting to do more. Liz has given me faith that Winnie & I can do well together and We are going to try our hand at Rally O Thanks Liz.. see you again soon.

Can't recommend Liz at K9 Services NZ highly enough. Our family has worked with her for two very different dogs, and had successful outcomes for both. One young dog was reactive to other dogs, and also had environmental stressors. After one on one training sessions, he has improved enormously and I am now confident and able to take him on walks. Liz also provided really sound advice to my daughter on dog selection for first time owners, with a happy result. She attended a group class for basic training with Liz too. As well as individual training and group training, we have both also completed on-line Zoom classes. Liz offers practical, positive training programmes for dogs and their owners. She has a wealth of experience and is able to break sessions down to enable achievable goals and results. Definitely 5 stars from us!

Thank you so much Liz for training our little boy. We took up puppy development classes with Liz and she is amazing, be it from the registration process to the last bit of training. Very knowledgeable about the behavior and training of dogs. Liz believes in providing an individualized training program rather than a "cookie cutter" training program. She's patient, kind and approachable and advises whatever is best for the puppy. We highly recommend Liz for puppy development program. Thanks again Liz. Until we meet again in a few months for further training .
