5 Star Bark Review
When I first met Tamasine I knew straight away that she was going to be the person that I wanted to work with, lovely, kind and prepared to listen to you as a dog guardian. Tamasine clearly understands the huge amount of emotion that we invest in our 4 legged companions so I had every faith going forward with sessions. My dog could be over the top reactive particularly to other dogs as he is an anxious dog and Tamasine guided us on how to build the foundation blocks that enabled me to guide my dog to better decision making, build his confidence and to also help him to understand that I am allows beside him as ‘his person/go to’
The sessions were predominately done on Zoom, after all why would you have a stranger come into your home that would likely stress your dog further and it worked so well also being in the comfort and security of your own space that you are in control of. Tamasine emailed notes following each session along with other helpful video clips which were invaluable and in the background to answer any questions or concerns. Don’t get me wrong, Tamasine is there to help us, she can not wave a magic wand and all will be resolved, you also have to put in the practice and do the homework :). I also gained so much knowledge and a better understanding of how my dog feels & thinks and also realised the mistakes I was also unknowingly making.
Having completed the foundation sessions and 2 meet ups I am pleased and proud to say we have made improvements, we have a clearer working partnership between us and my dog is gaining in confidence each day.
I would highly, highly recommend Tamasine to work with again repeating myself…she is lovely, kind, supportive and understanding…
