"Peggy loved her puppy training course with Emma. We learned all the basics to keep her safe and to enjoy her early months. We have used these training principles into her teenage months and we are always working on her 'good manners'. Emma was really tuned into Peggy's individual needs and always answered our puppy questions. Thank you Emma."

"Paw by Paw puppy classes with Emma were brilliant with our puppy.
Our first contact with Emma was via a phone call after I'd emailed her about lessons, I was worried as I hadn't enjoyed puppy lessons with our previous dog. Emma asked lots of questions and listened to any concerns we had, she was friendly but professional and gave us advice to help with our puppy before we even started the classes.
Our first session was very welcoming six puppies in total all different breeds from small to very large. The classes were run so everyone was learning and she gave us all help where we needed it. We were given a folder on our first session with helpful advice on all aspects of training and next steps as puppy grows, this is still used.
I would definitely recommend Paw by Paw puppy classes with Emma, absolutely brilliant dog trainer our puppy loved his training sessions and it gave us the best start with our gorgeous puppy."

"Paw by Paw puppy helped with our reactive spaniel a few years ago, so when we grew the family by 4 paws a couple of years later, we knew that we wanted the puppy to go to the puppy classes for the best start for him. The foundations for recall proved particularly invaluable as his teenage spaniel nose ruled his brain for a while!
Fast forward another few years to another 4 paws joining the family, again, there was no question she would do the puppy classes. A rescue this time, and therefore a bit older, classes and exercises were adapted by the PbyP team to take this into account. We lent heavily on all advice as we navigated introducing a nervous, inexperienced youngster into the big wide world. We also had a lovely time in the Hoopers classes once we had finished pups.
Paw by Paw will always be a part of our canine support network, highly recommend their classes and services."

"I recently completed a puppy course with Paw by Paw Training, led by Emma, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the very first session, Emma created a calm, friendly and encouraging atmosphere that made both the puppies, and their owners feel completely at ease.
Emma's knowledge, patience, and genuine love for dogs shone through in every class. She explained techniques clearly, offered helpful advice tailored to each puppy's personality, and made learning feel fun and manageable. Her approach helped build both my confidence as an owner and my puppy's confidence in new environments.
Each session was thoughtfully structured. I saw real progress in my puppy's behaviour and responsiveness week by week, and I've come away with practical tools that I continue to use daily.
If you're looking for positive, professional, and supportive training for your puppy. I wholeheartedly recommend Emma at Paw by Paw Training. We're so grateful for everything we've learned."

"We had been trying to deal with our dog's reactivity issues for a couple of years before joining Emma's Reactive Rovers class, and haven't looked back since! Emma's advise has been instrumental in helping Ralph remain calm when out and about, and we even got to the point of being able to introduce a new puppy into the home. We've since attended puppy classes with our second dog, Olive, as well as Canine College with both dogs, and have loved seeing them learn fun new tricks. Thank you Emma!"
