Canine Soul

Donna is great with dogs and owners, and very reasonably priced compared to some other trainers.It's still early days with our rescue dog but we now know what we should be working, how to do, and when we might start to see some results.We'll definitely be having more sessions in the future and will be signing up for training classes once they are allowed again.

Fantastic trainer, Donna has only trained our Sammi for only 2 month and the results are amazing , our anxious little boy is getting his confidence back through step by step training, making fun for Sam and us, she is truly amazing, we would highly recommend her.

Donna from Canine Soul has visited us twice since she came to do the original pre-adoption home check. Our Romanian rescue dog Suri has fear/anxiety issues and Donna has armed us with the information needed to help us understand her behaviour and to give us the confidence to help us turn Suri into a calmer and less anxious dog.Donna gave us various enrichment tasks on her initial visit which we continue with every single day and on her return visit could see just how much calmer and more responsive Suri was.On Donna's first visit Suri was very nervous,anxious and protective of us and gave Donna a very hard time everytime she moved slightly and was so trigger stacked that we had to keep her home for the rest of the day and all of the following day!On the second visit Suri was so much calmer, kept returning to Donna for more treats and even got up on her hind legs to sniff Donna's face, a move which you could never have imagined on the first visit.We have a lot of work still to do but thanks to Donna we just know that Suri will gradually become the calm, relaxed and amazingly good-natured dog that she deserves to be.Cannot recommend enough, thank you Donna

Jimmy loves Donna and I have learnt so much from her. Donna not only reaches the dogs but also you in how to behave around your dog. We love the behaviourist walks once a month and met like minded people and dogs and get excellent help and advice. Highly recommended.

Donna is so wonderful and supportive and helped me with my dog Tinks! Tinks is a nervous boy and she gave me great skills to use when walking him as well as giving me the confidence back to do so. She has lots of tricks and tips up her sleeve too - highly recommend :)!

I took my cockapoo puppy to the training sessions before Covid and Donna was amazing, so patient and loads of good advice on training techniques, natural treats and food. After the first lockdown I arranged a one 2 one in the park with Donna and again she was so helpful with and gave lots of advice. A year later I had a second one 2 one regarding separation anxiety, I am now able to leave my dog happily for a couple of hours. Thank you Caine Soul

Donna did our home check for our little Spanish rescue. When we had a few problems with reactivity and recall I reached out to Donna for help and we had a home visit, an accompanied trip to our local park and then we went along to a few of her social walks. Our little man is perfect now, he will always be quirky but Donna helped us to think like our Rolo dog and put strategies in place to cope with this. Her social walks are fab for building confidence for you and your dog, she explains exactly what your dog is thinking and why and how to work with them. I always recommend to fellow dog walkers.

Donna is a great trainer and so knowledgable - she’s helped me on many different occasions and I can’t recommend her enough!

I would highly recommend Donna from Canine Soul. She is a mindful of information and knowledge and is genuinely a lovely person who will go out of her way to help you with your dog in any way she can. She is patient and kind and really cares. We still go training regularly as it keeps me in check and our dog loves it.
