Reviews & Testimonials For Keiko Ruwhiu

I was feeling a bit out of control with my 4 month old German Shepherd puppy. He was intrusive, stealing things and hyperactive at times. Keiko had helped me in the past with another dog which had been very helpful, so even though Oscar has a fairly calm temperament, I decided to call and get an early handle on his behaviour. Keiko gave an excellent presentation using her iPad followed up with one on one instruction with Oscar. She gave me a much useful help on establishing leadership along with homework and instruction to arrange a follow-up appointment. I found our interaction encouraging and I’m feeling much more confident about my relationship with my puppy. I would happily recommend Keiko to anyone who is feeling in need of help with their dog.

I highly recommend Keiko, she is amazing. I was impressed with how well my pup responded to her in our first session. The knowledge Keiko has shared has changed how I communicate with my puppy Coco. The methods work, all it takes is time, patience and consistency. I have seen improvements with Coco in such a small amount of time and feel even more confident having the expertise of Keiko guide me through this exciting journey.

Keiko was incredible! Very assertive, professional and friendly. Keiko came recommended by a colleague and we are pleased we took the advice. Would recommend to anyone.

Excellent first lesson. Keiko is very informative and professional. The methods demonstrated are effective and easy to follow. Our dog Timmy responded very well!

I was amazed at how much improvement there was in just a few days. The techniques demonstrated were very effective. Very pleased!

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.
