Anna was great at helping both our girls improve their behaviour. She introduced various methods which we are able to continue to use to work with them at home. Her knowledge of dog behaviour is vast and it was a pleasure to have her working with our girls both of whom are continuing to improve especially when we are out and about with them. We highly recommend you try Forests and Fetch.

We first contacted Anna early March when we adopted our 5 month old nervous lab puppy milo. Anna has helped us immensely with building his confidence exploring the house and garden and helping us to fill in the gaps of the socialisation period that he missed. We couldn’t fault Anna and she has been so helpful! Don’t think we would be where we are with our boy without her!!

I reached out to Anna as i needed help training my 10 year old shitzu to no longer sleep in my bed/bedroom. This was a very stressful & upsetting situation for us both and i felt very overwhelmed. Anna was able to provide a short, medium and longer term plan for me and Bella that was compassionate and clear and guided me through it answering any questions i had and adapting aspects of this training to meet our needs making things as stress free as possible. We are making amazing progress with the training and it has really reduced the stress for myself and Bella. Thank you

Forests and Fetch has helped us with our reactive dog immensely. Anna has been extremely supportive throughout all of our sessions. From taking the time to understand our dog from the first consultation to keeping us calm as owners and helping us understand his trigger points to being able to walk through busy areas and not avoid them at all costs. Anna always had our dogs best interests at heart and her focus of him never wavered throughout the sessions even when people came up to talk to us. Anna's experience and knowledge has definitely helped us manage difficult situations much better and given him and us much better coping mechanisms and different strategies to deal with other dogs and people when they got too close for his comfort. We still feel we can reach out and ask for advice and give updates. Thank you Anna!

Anna’s training was exceptional and really helped our puppy with loose lead walking, which will be essential for me with a baby on the way. Anna, went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and understood what our end goal was with my puppies training. My puppy Ayrton loved his sessions and we learnt so much to carry through to the future. I highly recommend if you are requiring extra support with your puppy’s behaviour and obedience. Thank you Forests & Fetch!

I can't recommend Anna highly enough! Her expertise and guidance has been invaluable in helping me tackle loose lead training with my dog, Amber. From the moment we started working together, I could tell that Anna truly cares about the well-being and progress of both the dog and owner. Her advice was perfectly given and tailored specifically to Amber's needs, making the training process smooth and effective. Thanks to Anna, I now feel more confident and empowered in handling walks with Amber. If you're looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate trainer who gets results, look no further than Anna and the team at Forest & Fetch.
