We met Rhona on a one-to-one basis when Ted was very little. She gave us some fantastic advice for helping to settle him in to our home and it was invaluable. We joined the puppy training classes which Ted and I both thoroughly enjoyed and we are using and practising the techniques we were shown by Rhona all the time. At 5 months old Ted’s recall is amazing, mostly down to the tip Rhona gave us regarding Frankfurter sausages!!! Would highly recommend Paws 4 Transformation and Ted and I are hoping to continue with the next class in the new year.read more

Rhona's help has been in invaluable. She instantly got right to the heart of the issue with our dog and that just shows how experienced she is. Her, I would say unique, approach to continued support over a few months, along with text support, meant we never felt we were on our own. Would highly recommend calling Rhona to help with your dog - an outside experienced perspective always helps.read more

I highly recommend Rhona at Paws 4 Transformation.
Rhona teaches you and your pup the things you need to know, not gimmicks and tricks.
Rhona’s puppy classes are friendly and practical. Having taken part in other puppy training last year with another trainer, I can highly recommend Rhona over others.
We’ll be back for the next stage. 👍🏼read more

Brilliant classes! Rhona has been a wonderful help with getting our boy on track! The exercises Rhona has shown us are not only great fun but have been such a benefit to not only our pup but to us as owners as well. A huge thank you from both us and Arthur!read more

We have been coming to Puppy School for 4 weeks now and our Golden Retriever puppy Samui has improved so much in this time. In the first session he was a little nervous meeting the other dogs however even by week 2 he had improved hugely. He has learnt a lot from the classes and really responds to the training techniques Rhona uses. He also really loved the agility course that Rhona set up for the class. So glad we chose Paws 4 Transformation for his classes it has been a huge help for the tricky puppy period!read more

Rhona is now nicknamed ‘SuperNanny’ by our family due to her transforming the way we are able to teach our puppy how to behave in our home and fit in happily and calmly, which wasn’t how life with our pup started off! We have fun outdoor sessions learning skills as a family which are crucial for any dog owner when out walking, and spent time in our home learning about how we can enhance our pups fun and enjoyment playing and how to settle her into a routine to gain valuable and essential puppy naps!
SuperNanny has enabled us to have a new family member with 4 paws who is changing our lives, getting us out and about and having great fun safely. We can’t recommend Paws 4 Transformation enough!read more

Many thanks to Rhona, Cedric has come on leaps and bounds, especially as he didn’t like squeaky toys and whistles, Rhona really helped to find alternative ideas for recall and games to occupy him.read more

We arranged a 1-2-1 with Rhona and found the session really informative and helpful. Rhona is very friendly and knowledgable and was able to give us excellent and clear advice on a range of questions that we had about our 12 week old puppy. We’ve signed up for the puppy course and can’t wait to develop our puppies skills further. Highly recommended.read more

We had our first 1-1 session with Rhona today and it was amazing! I can’t believe the difference we can see in our 14 month old golden retriever after just one session - so excited to continue the classes. So pleased we found you, thank you! I would highly recommend!read more

My tiny Yorkiepoo - Poppy- has developed anxiety and fear aggression after I lost 3 other dogs from my pack last year - one in particular she was very attached to. Rhona came to our house and assessed Poppy thoroughly before giving me an advisory report and then setting up some one on one training with her. After just 2 sessions and plenty of reinforcing homework and advice for positive reward confidence training Poppy’s behaviour has already noticeably improved. We still have plenty to work on - which we can do at home alone. I have also been able to use the same training tactics to help my other dogs. Poppy is more relaxed, her dog “exclusion zone” is very much smaller and she really enjoys the training exercises!read more

Took my dogs to a recall session and then booked 1:1 sessions. We have had one session and wow I was amazed at what both myself and the dogs learnt. Rhona is friendly and calm and makes it all so clear and most importantly fun. I’ve never interacted with my dogs in this way before and it’s training 😁 Am very much looking forward to our next session and showing Rhona in the meantime the progression 😊read more

Rhona has been helping us with some behaviourial issues with our dogs. We are very impressed with her methods, patience, kindness and support. Just under 3 weeks since our initial consultation and with the training advised by Rhona, we are already seeing great progress. I highly recommend her for any issues you may be having with your four-legged friends.read more

Rhona is patient and kind with a great knowledge of dogs and their quirks! I've been to the group sessions and one to one's as I have 4 doggies and they are all much better behaved after what Rhona has taught me in how to manage their behaviours with love and kindness yet they still have their character and fun! I've tried others who were very strict and abrupt which wasn't for me or my doggies.read more

Thank you for today’s recall training Rhona it was really helpful and Poppy really enjoyed it. It is much more beneficial having personal help rather than trying to read books to learn and train. I will carry on with what you have taught us and let you know our progress.
Thank you Isabel and Poppyread more

I have only had two sessions with Rhona and already there has been a huge improvement! She is great and I feel so much more confident training my 2 year old Cairn than I did before. Thank you Rhonaread more

A very enjoyable session in a safe and secure environment. Rhona thoroughly explained each exercise, and the reasons and benefits, and was very happy to clarify as necessary. Great fun was had by all owners and dogs.
Just showed that it’s the owners rather than the dogs that need training!read more

Shona, thanks a million. The unattainable Winnie has been trained! We never thought there was any hope of stopping our yorkie from barking incessantly but 2 sessions with you and she is a changed dog. Some of the training was more the owner than the dog! You are understanding, calm and in control. You know you are in the presence of someone who totally understands your frustrations and issues but more importantly, understands the dog and their issues.read more
