I have had 5 sessions with Adelaide so far, due to have another 3 soon. I 1000000% recommend The Confident K9! Xena my nervous GSD has already made massive improvements in such a short time. She is a lot more confident and getting less and less reactive. I have worked with several other trainers in the past and I wish I came to Adelaide from the beginning! She is very knowledgeable, supportive both in person and over WhatsApp! 10/10! 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you so much for the ongoing support!
We had some amazing sessions with Adelaide for our anxious rescue dog who seemed to be bored most of the day but wouldn't interact with any toys/activities. Adelaide taught us how to incorporate free work, movement, and scent work with our girl, and we are surprised how much progress was made after just one session! Thanks to Adelaide, we have learnt the tools to increase our dogs' confidence in the home, make meal and treat times more stimulating, and increasing problem-solving skills. This confidence at home has already been translating to confidence outside of the home and we are so impressed! Thank you so much Adelaide!
We had 10 sessions with Adelaide for our 2 year golden retriever. Luna is a very anxious dog and gets very scared in many situations. With Adelaide's help we have greatly reduced Luna's anxiety and can now do many things with her we couldn't before. Luna has loved her sessions with Adelaide and we absolutely recommend her for any of your dogs behavioral needs. Thank you ☺️
Adelaide is very personable and reads dogs and people well. She quickly helped us understand our WCS’s aggression/reactivity towards GSD’s (and bringing her living experience of both breeds). The sessions were amazing and provided refreshers and new tools to apply and we have quickly seen a positive difference already. I highly recommend.
Can’t recommend Adelaide enough. Her direction and explanation are easy to understand and we learnt a lot from our training 😊
Hanley Rd, Malvern WR14 4HZ
The dogs and I absolutely love coming for our lessons. They’re always so much fun and tailored to suit your dog and how they learn best. We always get so much out of our lessons, and look forward to the next one as soon as we leave
Ollie has been absolutely fantastic with my dog who is a thug. Ollie has seen the best in Pablo and takes a cool, calm no drama attitude towards Pablo’s excessive barking and lunging, as an owner this eases the embarrassment and anxiety .. He has helped teach a technique to stop Pablo’s excessive barking proving to be successful out and about.. Myself and Pablo are growing a stronger bond by learning agility and having heaps of fun with it! We are so glad we found Insight dogs
The Old Post Office, Bromyard road, Bringsty, Worcester WR6 5TA
Friendly, knowledgeable and hugely experienced!
We took our dog to puppy classes and have learnt sooo much. We would recommend Bark to anyone. Zoe was always a text away if we had questions outside of the weekly classes too which was brilliant.
An establishment where mutts are taught to bark
Our dog has just completed the puppy class from which we have both learned a great deal. Excellent class and very good for puppy socialisation. Thank you Zoe.

Excellent with my dogs! They get so excited when they hear the car pull up 🥰 Very reliable and friendly 👍 Highly recommended from me and the doggies 🐕 🐕
Stacey is so great with Whiskey who absolutely loves going on his walks with her. He gets so much out of it and Stacey always communicates so well with us including pictures and videos of him having the best time!
Very friendly service, and our dog appears to love it, in the way he greets the walker when picking him up from the house, and how he looks in the videos that are sent after each walk.
Amazing personal service from Stacey... fun, energetic and varied walks. My dog loves her .
Stacey is great with our dog, happy to be flexible and good value for money. Would definitely recommend her!
Wyre Piddle Village Hall, Worcester Rd, Wyre Piddle, Pershore WR10 2HR
I found the young dog classes so valuable and Laila the whippet has loved every minute. Lots of great tips to practice at home and on walks, lots of take-away material to refer to later. The outside sessions are great too. Highly recommended
We have been with Sue for 5 years and she is absolutely wonderful. I trust her more than anyone else with my dog (Penny) and Penny adores her, she's also a lot better behaved since we started with Sue. Sue is exceptionally reliable, takes amazing care of Penny and goes above and beyond in all aspects. I don't know what we would do without her.
Our dogs absolutely love going on walks with Sue and their fury friends. I would highly recommend Sue's services to anyone who needs their doggies walked and well looked after.
Bella has been walked by Sue for several years now. The service provided is so reliable and personal, and the care and attention given to Bella and her play mates is beyond words. We cannot recommend Sue and PawsPerfection enough. If you are looking for a local Cotswold dog walker who will look after your precious dog, LOOK NO FURTHER.
Sue always goes up and beyond to look after my dog , simply fantastic & would definitely recommend
