I has Trainer Mcphee visit to help with my 12 week old corgi puppy who was super shy and afraid of the leash and most new things. I was super impressed how within minutes she got him comfortable with just basic training techniques. I was initially very stressed about my puppy because he had very different behaviour to what I was used to.But now am looking forward to using all that she taught me and feel more confident that i am able to train him. Definitely looking forward to working with her in the future if I ever face difficulties.

I have seen Nickola work with many dogs and she is an excellent trainer. I've been on numerous dogs walks with her and customers' dogs, and I am amazed at how comfortable she makes them feel whilst out as a group with dogs that they may not have met before. I have recommended Nickola to a number of my friend's for dog training/walking and they all have given positive feedback. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Nickola in the future. Her priority is always your dog's health and best interests.

In the summer, we re-homed our second dog. We started looking for a dog trainer after he started snapping at our other dog. After calling around to a few dog trainers, getting prices and hearing what they have to offer, we chose Nickola. She was very reasonably priced for the service offered, but that wasn't why I chose her. After a chat on the phone, it was very obvious that her first priority was my dog's health. She could easily have taken our money and booked the training session, but she recommended a vet check first. Her care for my dogs was apparent then, but was made obvious when she came to our house for the training session. She went through a thorough history with us, advised what behaviours we should adjust, and showed us how to teach our dogs the behaviours we wanted them to have. It's been about a week and a half since that session, and we can already see dramatic improvement with our dogs! Could not be happier! I--without a doubt--recommend her services. I only wish I found her sooner!

Trainer McPhee came to help us with our Spanish rescue puppy who was just over 4 months old. She was struggling with a double whammy of teething and adapting to her new environment. We had never had rescue dogs before from kennels and had no idea how different it would be. We were unwittingly making her behaviour worse and were at the point of wondering if we could see it through. Cue River - she spent a few hours with us and we had a different dog! We hadn’t had the time or space to consider the reasons behind the behaviour and the best ways to deal with it. She has been a brand new dog since River visited and we followed all her advice. It’s magic, but the sort that involves a lot of consistent hard work, but we’ve done it! The changes were simple and easy but needed consistency, which we have done and the results speak for themselves. She has improved every single day due to the advice and techniques River taught us and she is always happy to help if other issues arise. She is friendly, honest, non-judgemental and really down to Earth. We almost want to create pretend issues so she comes back to visit! This weekend our puppy enjoyed playtime with two new dogs in the snow, recalled off lead in a large garden and played beautifully with her new friends. She sleeps, she is gentle and becoming more affectionate each day. We wouldn’t be in this position were it not for River, thank you isn’t enough! It’s hard to ask for help, but you’ll not regret asking River 😊

First met Nickola over 6 years ago when my Jack Russell Cross was driving me mad, Nickola soon realized that the main problem was me!!! She taught me how to behave around my dog!!! But Nickola has become more than just a trainer, she has become and remained a friend. Realizing that my dog needed lots of socializing and far more exercise than I could give him, Nickola took him under her wing, for 6 years she has walked and looked after my dog, unfortunately, last year, my dog was taken seriously ill and had to spend a lot of time in hospital, Nickola was with me every time we went, she was as devastated as me, my dog can no longer run around for long periods of time, but we visit Nickola each week and I think the bond between her and my dog will last an eternity. As a dog trainer, she is superb but as a friend in times of doggy need - she will always go the extra mile.

Advice and knowledge around behavioural issues in dogs is no easy task. It takes years of training and building experience. Nicolas has achieved this! Given all the positive reviews its clear that Nickola is highly accomplished in her techniques and results. Professionals also endorse her advice by having her book for all to read in my local veterinary practice waiting room. I have seen her work with dogs and would personally recommend her advice with any issues with dogs and pups.

We’d really been struggling with our 11 week old puppy, as we’d never had a puppy before! We didn’t know if we were doing something wrong and had a slight panic that our lovely little puppy was actually just aggressive! Thankfully, we found Nickola and after just 1 session we already feel 1000x better! We’ve had a calm, relaxed puppy and in turn her humans feel relaxed too! Would recommend Nickola to anyone and everyone! Thanks again for your help!

When we contacted Nickola we were at breaking point with our boy. Everything we had tried for a year had failed. Nickola's whole approach was completely new to us. She asked us about our dog, what makes him tick/ his excitable triggers, his day to day life and what he gets up to. This was a completely different experience for us as other trainers we have had used a blanket approach which had no effect on our Bulldog. In that moment we realised we had gone completely wrong with all other trainers! Her compassion for dogs is so obvious and her advice / training is so achievable! Our boy still has a long way to go but the changes he has made in such a short time frame are unbelievable! He once was a dog we hid from our family due to worrying he would knock them over or be too boisterous is now at all family events waiting for his belly rubs! 10/10 would recommend.

Nickola has helped so much with my nervous collie cross. From his sound sensitivity to his fear of other dogs, he is now much more confident and Nickola has given me the skills to continue with the work, always available to offer further advice.

Literally worked miracles for us! Our boy was branded untrainable after 3 different trainers failed. But now he listens and is such a calmer / happier dog. He surprises me everyday! We have had on going support from Nickola who has taken the extra time to explain things and give us a proper unstanding rather than “because he is naughty/his breed”. I literally cannot thank her enough for all she has done for us. I would recommend her to anybody who will listen! THANK YOU!

Nickola was very laid back and pleasant to work with. I didn't believe anything would work with my socks at all and I thought he was beyond help. Nickola went through everything in great detail and had great communication and easy to understand training plan. Socks is a totally different dog. I can't believe the difference in him!! We are so very happy and impressed with how socks behaves now and its only been 4 weeks. We can now walk down the street with out him going to attack strangers and men. Excellent service!!

I've used Trainer McPhee for 2 of my own dogs, both overseas rescues, as well as referred friends and acquaintances having issues with their dogs to her with great results, I can't recommend her positive reinforcement methods highly enough.

I work with nickola very regularly, I'm her mum!! That said and totally impartial she is a fabulous trainer. I have watched her study hard to develop her knowledge and skills so that she has a solid background of information when helping clients and their dogs. Very proud of her.

From the first time I met trainer Mcphee I knew she knew her stuff , she has achieved a high level of training and she really is amazing at understanding dogs and pups. She helped with my puppy’s and is well regarded within the local area and beyond

I am so happy with the service provided by Trainer McPhee, I was recommended by a friend and I certainly will be recommending her to others for all aspects of dog training! She is amazing with dogs, I think she talks dog!

Absolutely amazing trainer, she has a wonderfully calm approach which in turn calms the dogs, I have used and recommended her on many occasions, each time has had a positive outcome for dog and owner
