The Dog Business

We took our puppy, Toby, to the puppy training class and we are so glad we did! Louise was amazing with the dogs and so knowledgeable! She makes the lessons fun for the pups and breaks each trick into easy, bite-sized steps. We would recommend her classes to anyone!

It has been great to come back for another group classes with Louise. Athena and dad have learnt a lot of new skills and tricks, which we will carry on with. We Highly recommend, Louise is very helpful, knowledgeable and the classes were very engaging. We look forward to having more ongoing lessons with Louise. Thank you! Nas & Athena

My puppy and I just completed the Puppy Essentials classes with Louise. She is such an engaging teacher and her passion for working with dogs shines. Her teaching methods are clear, practical and encourage your puppy to make good decisions. I’m very happy with her classes and would recommend them to anyone, whether it’s your first puppy or not.

I just finished a four-week puppy training program with Louise at The Dog Business for my puppy, Coco. Louise is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and practical. She made each session fun and easy to understand, giving me the confidence as a first-time puppy parent to continue training at home.

Louise has helped us tremendously! She always goes the extra mile, super enthusiastic and an all round lovely lady! Louise is very knowledgable and helped us with Stella's insecurity with other dogs. We had gone to many trainers with no success but an hour with Louise and we were seeing a huge improvement! She then helped us with our puppy and his early socialisation. Always a positive and successful experience with a clear plan of what to do next. Would highly recommend!!

What an awesome experience for both Brioche and us (her fur parents). Louise has a calm, empathetic, friendly and caring approach to helping us train our little puppy. She was clear in her teaching, and it was very easy for us to understand and follow her instructions. In the four weeks of attending Louise’s class, Brioche blossomed from a timid and shy puppy to a confident and curious social butterfly! Thank you Louise for sharing your knowledge with us!

Louise is an amazing force free dog trainer. We seriously can’t thank her enough for what she has done for our puppy. He has come such a long way since we started with her and I seriously can’t say a bad word about our overall experience with The Dog Business. Louise has gone above and beyond for us. With the extra after class information (training videos , more written information & SO many extra tips) and in class information etc she really in our eyes is just the best. Her classes not only cover the information you are expecting to learn eg - our class was focused around recall; she also covered SO much more. We are so happy we crossed paths with her. Thank you for ALL your support, help and guidance- your wisdom on force free training is impeccable and you have provided us with so much knowledge. I would recommend Louise and The Dog Business for ANYONE with a puppy or a dog, trained or not. The Dog Business NZ is the place to go!!!
