Reviews & Testimonials For Keiko Ruwhiu

Very comprehensive and well paced delivery.

Keiko was amazing and the dogs responded really well to her. Her way of teaching is amazing… Very calm and very patient.

We never thought this huntaway cross will stop patrolling the fence and with that stop barking as much to ‘warn off’ potential invaders (passers by). Well he started to do just that after only one session with Keiko during which she explained and demonstrated the whole picture and where his behaviour stems from. Now that we know how to do what is required as Frankie’s ‘pack leaders’ he does not need to protect us anymore and the balance is being restored and THIS is what is helping us to help him not to patrol the fence and ‘keep his pack safe’ (barking). Barking is for when there are real invaders.

Keiko is a very informative and competent trainer and knows exactly what she was doing. After Keiko had the owners 'trained', Missy produced immediate results, which was very pleasing. We are first dog owners and our training technique left a bit to be desired. Keiko helped us with how to train Missy and now, only a few days on, she is a different dog. Thank you so much.

Keiko gave us an awful lot to think about. We realise we have to be clearer and more consistent with our expectations. The results of her advice have been absolutely amazing and made life with Charlie an absolute pleasure. Can't wait to see where this takes us.

Keioko's advice has been priceless. In a short time, we have seen massive improvements with our dog. We couldn't be happier with the support we have received so far.

Despite being longtime dog owners we found we required training assistance with our new dog. Fortunately as a result of Keiko's visit we are confident of improved behaviors.

We were inexperienced dog owners & we knew that our Ella was confused with our instructions. On the first day Keiko educated us & Ella learned not to jump up on people, barking is reducing, less demanding for attention, loose leash walking is improving. We are very happy with the progress we made in a short time & with consistency Ella will be a joy to take out to parks & beach. Keiko is very knowledgeable & was great in sharing her experiences. Thank you for making a difference.

Great first meeting. Informative, clearly delivered and effective.

Keiko is great! We adopted our 1 year old dog and wanted him to settle in at our place with the right boundaries and rules. As he was our first dog, we wanted to get guidance and techniques on how to be good dog owners. Keiko's knowledge and patience helped us, and she answered all of our questions.

Your visit was a 100% success and more than we expected. Already the girls have stopped barking and jumping up. You were kind, extremely helpful and we are delighted with everything. It was a real pleasure to spend time with you and we can't thank you enough. The dogs seem happy and seem to understand what we want from them. If one word can describe your visit, it is BRILLIANT.

Right from the start Loki began to realise that he was not in charge and started to focus more on me. The correction stopped him and the worst of his behaviours was starting to get under control. I do like that he now knows that he is not in charge of what he does when it is not acceptable to me or the wellbeing of my two small dogs. I am so grateful to Keiko, the trainer, for her time and effort that she put into me and teaching Loki who is in control and that he has boundaries that he has to adhere to. Keiko was not pushy but did correct me when I got things wrong with Loki so that I could keep him on the right track. With time and consistency on my part and the help of Keiko I now know that Loki can have the life that he deserves. Looking forward to further improvements as the training moves forward.
