Client Testimonial

When clients see the progress in their dog’s training journey, it’s incredibly rewarding. Their dedication to helping their dog feel more comfortable in situations that once seemed frightening begins to pay off. Working with Eline, Aaron, and their fox terrier, Layla, was a true pleasure.

Full Testimonial
My partner and I have a 1.5-year-old fox terrier who is quite the troublemaker: very barky and anxious in nature. Having people visiting our home can be quite challenging and stressful. Dog training in groups didn't seem to make a difference, so we reached out to April to see if she could give us advice specifically catered to our home and circumstances. We did three sessions and our dog warmed to her very quickly. We got lots of tips and tricks that provide us with more structure and clarity around what to do when our dog freaks out. We have already seen an improvement in our dog's behaviour. Thanks April!

A year since Millie departed this mortal realm. I miss her profoundly. She was the cheekiest little mischief maker with the sweetest nature and the biggest heart. She was incredibly clever, and I probably never knew her full potential. She adored me and I adored her for it. She stole the heart of everyone she met. I really, really hope that she and Archie are together. 😔

I've written another poem about dog poo! 😟

A surprise guest in the grooming room. A tapeworm, wriggling its way out of a dog's behind like it owned the place (and the cheeky blighter didn't even book an appointment!!😆).

Not quite the glamorous side of dog grooming, but definitely a reminder: flea and worm treatments aren’t just optional extras – they’re essential for the health of your dog AND..... a condition of service here at AllAbouttheHound.

Fleas can carry tapeworm eggs, which your dog can ingest just by doing what dogs do best – sniffing and eating things they shouldn’t. Before you know it, you’ve got a wriggler situation on your hands (or worse, on your sofa or in your bed).

So, for your dog's health and your groomer's sanity (if it isn't me), please keep up with regular flea and worm treatments. A well-treated pup is a happy pup – and far less likely to horrify me or another groomer on the grooming table.🤮

Thanks heaps!

Remember a little while ago when I realised that Monty would bark, lunge and chase the vacuum cleaner? I went to management first to prevent Monty from accessing the vacuum by keeping him behind a baby gate, gave him some space and something he found pleasurable (lickimat) to keep him occupied.
Well, here he is hanging out on his bed, waiting calmly while I vacuum. He did have a bone to chew but I didn't know how to put the two videos together so you'll just have to take my word for it. 😁 My point is, it might take a little time, but if you persevere with your training plan, you can get the results you want. If interested in learning how to help your dog be comfortable around noisy, moving and/or stimulating things, feel free to get in touch. AllAbouttheHound can definitely help.

I’ve penned a little poem, inspired by recent strolls with Monty and the truly heroic amount of poo💩🤢we keep encountering. Feel free to share — it seems we’re facing a Wairarapa wide doggy doo dilemma of epic proportions. 😁
