Paw & Order Noosa

Jo knows her stuff. As an industry professional and committed dog owner, I have no hesitations in recommending Jo. She understands not only how dogs learn and communicate, but also how to be the translator between Dog and Human. Whether you’re addressing a problem behaviour or just want to strengthen the bond between you and your best mate- Jo is your lady!!!Her pricing structure is also great value and sensible for how much she can add to your relationship with your dog!

The time Jo spent with us, together with her ongoing support and advice, meant that our litter of puppies were not only loved and well-cared for, but also intellectually stimulated and appropriately educated in readiness for their new forever homes. Her expert knowledge of the developmental stages of puppies and their needs together with extensive resources including those on her website, was the education and support we needed to ensure our success as first-time breeders.

Jo was literally a life-saver and no words can adequately describe how invaluable it was to have her in our corner in the first 6 weeks after bringing our puppy home as a first time dog owner. First, I had her come come over for a pre-puppy consultation which gave me the certainty about crate and pen setup, puppy's daily routine, toys, basic training and fundamental Dos and Dont's. In the days after she left, I had so many more questions and Jo was right there to answer them. I would text her and she'd respond 1 minute later. I have now found this to be Jo's standard - she is always available to her clients, she goes above and beyond every step of the way, providing resources, insights, knowledge and rock solid reliability. Jo offered to come over on the day we collected the puppy (on a Sunday!) to help him settle in, and assure us about what we were doing and how we were handling the puppy. We then had a series of training sessions to learn how to work with our puppy, what to watch for (pre-empting certain behaviours), how to redirect effectively, how to engage and how to disengage after training and essentially, how to understand what our puppy was communicating. Our final session was at a cafe where we worked with the puppy staying on the mat and being calm while we enjoyed a coffee. It was brilliant. Jo is passionate, incredibly generous with her knowledge and resources, always there for her clients, and an expert in positive reinforcement training. In my mind, Jo is THE go-to trainer for that first critical period when you bring home your new puppy and both puppy and owners are lucky to her her.
