Wagging Wonders

I have known Zara for over 8 years when she first helped me with my reactive dog.Having recently acquired a new puppy I decided to go back to her and try her Puppy Power 6 week course. I wasn't disappointed and Nessie and I learnt new skills together.Looking forward to the Practice makes perfect course next.Thank you for an enjoyable few weeks Zara.

Zara has helped me build some strong foundations with my puppy's training. Each session is held in small groups so each individual gets the time and attention they need to guide them and their puppy in the right direction. The follow up emails and videos ensure you remember what was covered in each session allowing you to build on the foundations taught.Having attended 'Puppy Power' classes, my pup and I are now attending 'Rapid Recall' classes. Zaras professionalism and approachable persona makes sessions pleasant and enjoyable and I would highly recommend her as a trainer.

Zara offers skilled and confident training sessions which she adapts to suit dogs and owners. I will be forever grateful for her advice and support with my nervous pup/teen. Zara does not have a one size fits all approach as all our pups have different needs. Highly recommended.

Zara is absolutely brilliant! We have a cocker spaniel puppy (just finished lessons at 4 1/5 months old) and unfortunately had a bad experience at a local trainers in Gainsborough which was for hunting dog breeds. It was very strict, far too stimulating being outdoors for our pup and we never got help when struggling due to large class size.My husband found Zara and she has been great! Her classes are smaller in size and indoors meaning she can come round to you and give you the attention required and you can ask questions if needed. If somethings not quite working she has a number of other options to try. There's also breaks for the dogs so they're not getting over worked / over stimulated.Even if your pup knows a few commands already it's still great as Zara goes into detail as to why we do certain commands and how it can help the pup when applying it to outside.We've travelled to Lincoln to do the classes and haven't regretted it. Zara is very kind and patient and made us feel very comfortable from day 1. I highly recommend her.

Amazing puppy classes - Zara is so fantastic, patience and professional - my poodle has come a long way in a very short time - so looking forward to continuing with other Wagging Wonders classes as he gets older

My puppy has just completed the puppy power course. She started well but unfortunately came into season after only 2 weeks. Zara sent me all the videos to watch so we didn't fall behind and was on hand to answer any of my questions, whether about the coursework or my pups behaviour. We were able to return for the last two weeks of the course and Zara helped me refocus Dolly. I would definitely join the follow on courses or use Zara for 121 work in the future.

We cannot recommend Zara enough!We started the Step up course in September 21 after our nervous romanian rescue joined us in June.Zara showed us training 'games' that not only helped us bond, but built his confidence, taught him and us new skills and taught us how to communicate with him.The positive reinforcement method of training has been invaluable and he has responded brilliantly to this.We have also completed the Practice makes Perfect and Recall classes which have been great!Of course any training needs constant practice and Zara follows up each class with email reminders of what was covered to help continue the training between classes. She was also always on hand to answer odd little questions with her wealth of knowledge.Morse enjoyed the classes so much, loved Zara and loved the learning. So much so, the car trip to the training each week also helped hugely in curing his fear of the car.I can honestly say these courses were the best money we spent and we now have the best boy who we understand, who understands us, has grown so much in confidence and still loves playing his training games on a daily basis!

We have attended several different training courses with our puppy all expertly ran by Zara! Our first was puppy power when our dog was only 12 weeks old and with there only being 3 other puppies on the course definitely helped with keeping him calm making the training much easier. Since then we've been back on other courses which have all added to how we train our dog and it has all paid off. She has had a solution to every question/situation we've had along the way which has been invaluable - without her help we would've been lost with it all countless times. I can't recommend her highly enough!

Absolutely amazing!I've been bringing Benji for lessons with Zara at Wagging Wonders since May 2023 when he was 11 weeks old, so far he's done:- Puppy Power- Rapid Recall- Practice Makes PerfectAnd we're currently doing Scentwork.Benji loves going, it's been great for socialising him in a safe space with like minded dog owners. As an owner you always have a laugh in class too! Zara creates a positive, fun and friendly learning environment for both dog and owner.Classes are followed up with informative emails about what we've practiced so you have something to support you when you continue the leaning at home, which I find incredibly helpful!I was really nervous when choosing a trainer, I wanted someone who truly loved dogs and used positive behaviour practices rather than more 'old school' styles but I had no word of month recommendations to go off. So I had to resort to Internet research and online reviews (just like this).The Wagging Wonders website really spoke to me, so I took the plunge and booked Benji on the Puppy Power course, and I haven't regretted it for a second.Zara really knows how to connect with you and gets to understand your dogs personality/breed so when you're in class she can tweak things or make recommendations to better help your dog learn more effectively.Both myself and Benji love going and would fully recommend using Wagging Wonders!!
