Client Testimonials

“Fantastic, kind positive dog trainer. Spotted things we needed to work on and just minor changes in our routine has shown immediate improvement!”

“I cannot thank or recommend Lorna enough for the work she has done with our two labs. Having a hyper 3 year old lab paired with a playful (and too smart for her own good ) 8 month old lab can be a handful, but the work Lorna has done with us has made the world of difference. She is the first trainer to listen to what you actually want to achieve and the progress you are making. Highly recommend her services”

“Lorna has given me some valuable insights into our GSD puppy’s behaviours and demonstrated ways I can help build his confidence through training, positive reinforcement and particularly by simply allowing him to experience the world at his own pace.
Very knowledgeable trainer, would highly recommend.”

“Many thanks to Lorna for helping me with lead training. My dog is a big puller. Lorna helped me to understand that giddiness and excitement is part of his breed, so it will take a lot of time and patience to get him to focus on me on the way to the park. She pointed out a couple of things that I wasn't doing quite right and showed me ways of correcting them (all done kindly, without making me feel stupid).
All in all it was a good session and I wouldn't hesitate commending Lorna as a dog trainer.”

“Thank you so much to Lorna for helping with lead training and for giving me the guidance to help with our problem.  Lorna is very patient and knowledgeable in all she does. We can highly recommend Lorna and Dooney’s Dog Training”

“Lorna has been fabulous with our littermates. She is very knowledgeable and manages to train us how to train them! Lorna listens to what you want to achieve and helps you get there. Lorna helps you establish boundaries and shows how to effectively enforce them with positive rewards. I would definitely recommend.”

“My rescue border collie is a very timid little boy. He didn’t have the best start but it looks like all is not lost with the help and advise I have had so far from Lorna. So patient and knows her stuff. Light at the end of the tunnel and all signs are he with have the full happy life he deserves. I can recommend Dooney’s 100%”
