Lucy & Bella
My dog Bella absolutely loves the agility training sessions at Paws Academy! Not only has she become more confident and focused, but I’ve also noticed a huge improvement in her overall obedience. Renee is incredibly patient and skilled, making it fun for both dogs and owners. We can’t wait for our next session!
James & Max
I was at my wit’s end with Max’s barking and destructive chewing, but one home session with Renee from Paws Academy changed everything. She pinpointed the root cause of his behavior and showed me practical, easy-to-follow steps that resolved the issue immediately. I’m amazed at how effective the session was. Thank you so much, Renee
Hannah & Luna
Enrolling in Paws Academy’s puppy classes with Renee was the best decision we made for Luna. Renee was so knowledgeable and created a safe, fun environment for her to socialise with other puppies while learning basic commands. Luna’s confidence has skyrocketed, and we’ve built such a strong bond thanks to the training. Highly recommend it to any new puppy owner
Emma & Charlie
Living in a remote area, I wasn’t sure how I could get help with my dog’s leash reactivity, but the virtual coaching sessions with Renee were a game-changer. She was so attentive and provided a step-by-step plan that I could implement immediately. I saw progress after just one session. The convenience and effectiveness were incredible
Michael & Bailey
Renee at Paws Academy has transformed my relationship with Bailey. She has such a positive, results-driven approach that makes learning enjoyable for both dogs and owners. Whether it’s basic commands or advanced tricks, Bailey is thriving, and we’ve become the team I always dreamed we’d be. Thank you, Renee
Sarah & Milo
I’ve tried many trainers, but none compare to Renee’s expertise and dedication at Paws Academy. From puppy classes to agility training, every session is tailored to meet your dog’s needs. Renee’s genuine care and ability to solve problems with practical advice is unmatched. I’ll never go anywhere else for my dogs
Sophie (Puppy Club Member)
I first came across Renee on Instagram when I had just brought Greg home at 8 weeks. Her tips were so helpful and practical that after a few weeks I signed up to Puppy Club and now just wish I had done it immediately. The modules are so informative but even more helpful is the community and the ability to post questions, get advice and realise you arent alone in the chaos of puppyhood!
Kadavis (Puppy Club Member)
Puppy Club has been great when you are a first time puppy mum. I’m working my way through the course content and the questions/ scenarios posted by people are super helpful as usually I am experiencing near enough the same issue! Really glad I signed up
Susan (Puppy Club Member)
The lessons and videos inside Puppy Club were genuinely really useful, but for me it was the support that made the biggest difference. Having a community to lean on, ask questions in, and be reminded that you’re not doing everything wrong was huge. It didn’t feel like being left on your own with a course, it felt like someone was there with you while you figured things out. Renee is a bit like the dog version of Jo Frost
Anna (Puppy Club Member)
Renée and puppy club have been my rock these first weeks of welcoming a puppy into my life. It's not just the structured information, clear guidance and tips, but Renée has helped me see and understand my puppy better, so that I feel much more confident meeting her needs in a kind and positive way, and enjoy life together. I've also deeply appreciated the kind, fast and extremely helpful responses I've gotten when I've asked for help in moments of overwhelm. Priceless! And I get to see other people's pups, share joys and wins, and learn from everyone else's journeys too. Puppy club is incredible value for money and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants clear guidance and support in raising their puppy in a positive way!
Nikki (Puppy Club Member)
I haven’t even got my puppy yet (just two more sleeps!), but I already feel so much more prepared and confident about what to do, and, just as importantly, what not to do, since joining Puppy Club. I’ve already posted a question in the group and received such a supportive, informative reply from Renee, which was incredibly reassuring. It’s so easy to spend hours Googling or scrolling through social media, never quite knowing if the advice you’re reading is actually right. With Renee, you know you’re getting guidance from someone with 30 years of experience, which gives real peace of mind and confidence to follow that advice. I honestly can’t recommend this club highly enough
Matt (Puppy Club Member)
The videos in Puppy Club were really helpful, and everything was explained in a way that both my wife and I could actually understand and put into practice. Nothing felt overcomplicated or over the top. Whenever we needed a bit more clarity, we could just drop a quick question into the community and Renee always came back to us really quickly. That ongoing support made a huge difference for us.
Claire & Oscar
We started agility training at Paws Academy as a way to give Oscar some extra exercise, but it’s turned into his favorite activity! Renee’s training style is so engaging and supportive, and Oscar’s confidence has grown immensely. Plus, it’s a great way for us to bond. I highly recommend Paws Academy for anyone looking to try agility
Martin & Daisy
Renee is a lifesaver! Our dog, Daisy, struggled with separation anxiety, and we didn’t know how to help her. Renee came to our home, observed her behaviour, and provided a personalised plan that worked immediately. It’s like we have a new dog, and Daisy is so much happier now. Thank you, Renee
Jessica & Milo
As first-time dog owners, we had no idea where to start with training our puppy, Milo. Renee’s puppy classes were a game-changer! She taught us the basics of obedience and gave us tips on socialisation that have made all the difference. Milo is growing into a well-behaved, happy dog, and we couldn’t have done it without Renee
Tom & Leo
I was skeptical about virtual coaching at first, but Renee proved me wrong! I had been struggling with my dog, Leo, pulling on the leash, and within one online session, Renee gave me actionable advice that worked immediately. Her guidance was clear and practical, and the results speak for themselves. Highly recommend her virtual sessions
Emily & Rosie
My rescue dog, Rosie, had some challenging behavioural issues at home, including resource guarding and constant barking. Renee came to our house and observed the behaviours and gave us simple, effective strategies. The changes were almost instant, and Rosie is now so much calmer and happier. At one point, I really felt like I was going to need to give Rosie back to the rescue centre, thankfully now we are happy together and that is all due to to the care and attention from Paws Academy.
Sarah & Scout
From puppy training to behaviour correction, Paws Academy has been there for us every step of the way. Renee has such a deep understanding of dogs and their needs, and her training techniques are always positive and effective. Our dog, Scout, has thrived because of her help. I recommend Paws Academy to everyone I know
Sophie & Luna
I can’t believe how much progress Luna has made in agility since we started with Renee at Paws Academy! She’s gone from timid and unsure to confident and excited for every session. Renee’s enthusiasm is contagious, and the techniques are easy to follow. Agility has become the highlight of our week
Laura & Cooper
Renee’s agility training sessions are fantastic! I brought my high-energy dog, Cooper, to Paws Academy hoping to channel his energy, and it’s been the perfect fit. Not only is Cooper thriving in agility, but his overall behaviour has improved, too. Renee truly has a gift for understanding dogs.
Emma & Sadie
Living far away, I wasn’t sure how I could get help for my dog, Sadie’s jumping and mouthing issues, but Renee’s virtual coaching was amazing. She provided clear guidance that worked wonders. Sadie’s behaviour is so much better now, and I feel much more confident handling her. Thank you, Renee
Anna & Charlie
The virtual coaching sessions were incredibly helpful for me and Charlie. Renee’s advice was practical, easy to understand, and fit perfectly into our routine. Even though it was online, it felt so personal and hands-on. Charlie’s leash pulling has improved so much honestly, it’s been a game-changer for me and my family and grandkids.
Mike & Max
I was hesitant to try virtual coaching for my reactive dog, Max, but Renee exceeded all my expectations. She helped me understand Max’s triggers and gave me simple steps to manage his behaviour. The results have been amazing, and I’m so grateful for her support
Holly & Daisy
The puppy classes at Paws Academy were perfect for our little Daisy! Renee was so patient and explained everything in a way that was easy to follow. Daisy has learned basic cues, socialised with other puppies, and is so well-behaved now. I highly recommend these classes for any new puppy owner
