Canine Connection CO

Niamh has been an invaluable asset to us since we began working with her. Her genuine concern for dogs is apparent, and her extensive knowledge has been essential in guiding us towards achieving our goals for our furry friend. Our recent adoption of a puppy marked the start of a commitment to use positive reinforcement in training, and we were inundated with conflicting perspectives and strategies. However, Niamh took the time to get to know us and our dog, and provided us with a comprehensive training plan for the immediate future. We are confident that with her continued support, our puppy will grow into a happy, confident and well-trained dog, capable of joining us in our safe adventures. We are extremely grateful for Niamh's assistance and excited for what's in store!

The team at Canine Connection CO greatly values Niamh. Prior to joining our team, Niamh dedicated over 45 minutes on the phone with me discussing my dog's excessive barking. Knowing that my dog struggles with anxiety, Niamh devoted roughly 2 hours in-person to furnish us with positive techniques that do not use negative reinforcement, resulting in a calmer, happier dog. Niamh's approach is gentle and compassionate, which is why she is so highly regarded. Our family and friends have noticed a positive change in our dog's demeanor since Niamh worked with us. He is less vocal, more comfortable, and now welcomes other dogs. Although he is still working through his issues, Niamh kindly dedicated another half-hour on the phone discussing our options for continuing his training. As a behavior analyst, Niamh recommended that we schedule a vet appointment before proceeding further with her training, showcasing her commitment to our dog's well-being. Once the vet's plan is in motion, we will definitely bring Niamh back to work with our dog.

Niamh's expertise and professionalism were truly remarkable. Her exceptional ability to articulate canine behavior and psychology was invaluable in helping us comprehend the tasks that lie ahead.

The training suggestions that Neeve suggested for our four dogs, including housebreaking, pulling on leash, and rushing the door when guests arrive, were excellent and greatly appreciated. Her professionalism and concern were evident, and my furry friends responded well to her right away. Also, her subsequent provision of helpful training videos was a nice touch. Overall, we are extremely satisfied with Neeve's performance.

Niamh successfully tackled our rescue dogs' uncontrollable excitement during guest visits, a problem we had been struggling with for four years. She introduced a training regime that was immensely effective, resolving the issue within half an hour. In addition to this, she provided us with several other behavioral suggestions. Particularly noteworthy was her recognition and insight into how our anxious dog, Maggie, struggled with maintaining calmness. Thanks to Niamh, I now have a better grasp of the challenges Maggie faces, and I've resolved to be more patient.
