Highly recommend! We completed the Puppy Professors Perfect Start Puppy school with our Mini Groodle. Himali was fantastic. She is so professional, calm and patient. She has a wealth of knowledge and over the six weeks covered everything to help us raise a well-mannered dog. She provided fantastic notes each week, which are very helpful to refer back to. She also remains available for us to contact if we have any questions. Plus, our puppy Archie absolutely loved her and the training sessions!

Himali's puppy preschool was fantastic. Having her visit our home meant all the family could be part of the puppy training. We learnt so much over the 6 weeks, this is a very comprehensive training program. The follow up notes each week were great for us to refer back to. Himali also offered support in between visits via email and phone if we were having any issues and provided lots of additional information and support. Highly recommend.

Highly recommend! We brought in the puppy professor to help with our 4 month old toy cavoodle. Himali is calm, patient, generous and amazing with our dog. We saw immediate improvement in his behaviour and also had Himali on the other end of the phone whenever we needed her. She is very generous with her time and we have her support long after the sessions have finished including detailed notes every week. Everything she teaches has a gentle approach and achieves results without punishment, I highly recommend.

Himali has offered me a systematic puppy training session package. She's professional and patient all the time for any question I have. For every session, different skills and knowledge are introduced in order to take care of a puppy in every aspect of development. The most important thing is all the instructions are clear for us to keep training after the session has finished.

Himali was the most kind and helpful dog trainer we could've asked for! Even after a few panicked emails from us at 1am, she was extremely patient and more than happy to help. Our puppy Dot has become a very confident puppy and is growing up to be a very good doggo.
The puppy school was amazing. It was completely reward based and focused a lot on puppy's behaviour rather than teaching tricks straight away. Himali always explained the reason behind every 'game' that we would play with our dog Dot. So we ended up understanding how dogs learn in general (which has helped understand why sometimes they can be cheeky) and how to progress with our training after puppy school ended.
We did most of our sessions over Zoom due to Covid, but still found it super easy to replicate as Himali would demonstrate more complicated commands with her pupper Popely.
I honestly could not recommend Himali more!
We will be coming back one day with our next puppy. :)

My partner and I recently added a german shepherd puppy to our family. We knew going into this that we wanted to put a lot of effort into training her properly. We wanted to find someone to work with who focused on positive reenforcement training only, and offered puppy focused 1 on 1 training. After a great deal of research, we settled on Himali and we're so glad that we did! She had great reviews and after our initial outreach we could tell she really cares about what she does and the well being of the dogs she works with by sending us over a helpful list of suggestions for how to prepare pre-puppy. Himali came over for house visits post lockdown, and went through the technique behind all trainings, then demonstrated them with our dog, Nacho. It was immensely helpful to be able to see her do the training in real time, and coach us on how to ensure we were doing everything properly and connecting well with Nacho. Outside of the training sessions, Himali is super responsive via email and always sends over a recap of what we did each day. I would recommend Himali a million times over.
