Private Consultations Dogs

Although Jett is a 12 year old Labrador his behaviour was often like that of a 12 week old puppy. We worked with Kelly to stop him getting so excited when visitors arrived and to stop his attention seeking behaviour.

By the end of Kelly's training Jett was able to go and sit on his bed when visitors arrived and he would leave visitors alone when asked to. Kelly was great to work with and had some really good ideas that all contributed to changing Jett's behaviour.

Two years ago Muffi came to join our family.
Unfortunately due to Muffi's background she came with lots of baggage. When Muffi was ready for training I realised it would need to be a special person. A small advertisement in a local magazine sent me down a track both here & Australia to find Kelly from Happy Pawes.
I have not been disappointed. Kelly has given us all the help and assistance required to help Muffi adjust to a new world outside the home.
I would highly recommend Kelly and her method of training to all dog owners and especially dogs like Muffi with special needs.

Private Consultations Cat

Our cat Mickey used to be unaffectionate and attacked us whenever we tried to pat or cuddle him. We couldnt touch him without being bitten or scratched. Mickey loved clawing the carpet and ripping up the couch.
That was until Kelly from Happy Pawes got involved. All it took was a one off appointment and a few simple changes. Kelly came to our house and taught us how to deter Mickey's destructive behaviour using positive reinforcement.
She also made suggestions about changes we could make around our house, which didnt cost anything. Mickey is now a different cat. He doesn't attack us any more and is now really affectionate. He often jumps on our lap and lets us have a cuddle! The best thing is that Mickey is no longer destructive and seems like a much happier cat! It was definitely worth the initial fee.
We would recommend Kelly to anyone who is experiencing behavioural problems with their cat.
