Miyagi's Dog Training and Behaviourist Services

I have known Tasha since she was a teenager. I have never seen anyone with the affinity that she has with them. She can turn her hand to any Dog and the Dog will show her the greatest respect and confidence. I have seen her handle aggressive Dogs to puppies and she is amazing. I do not mean this in a generic term you have to see her in action to fully understand my description. I have seen Tasha go from strength to strength in her career in this ever competing industry. She does not give a toss about being famous only the owners and the Dogs she is working with in the hopes of them developing a similence of a bond she shares with Dogs. You really do have to see her in action. A+

Tasha has been helping us train "Byron" our standard poodle.over the last 10 months. She has been with us through some difficult times with Byron but has always been supportive offering quality advice and guidance. We booked Byron with Tasha at home on weekly (one to one) firstly with a block of 5 then 10 now open ended as we can see some great results. Byron also goes to obedience classes each week at Orby Village Hall and agility classes at Hogsthorpe These have been really useful so he can integrate with other dos and develop new skills. We have also attended a first aid course, behavior

I got in touch with Tasha after struggling to find a dog trainer that would actually come and see us and my 2 dogs at the time about their reactive problems and see if they could help near to me. Found Tasha on Facebook got in touch and she came out to see us and my 2 dogs. We have since been working with Tasha 1 to 1 with one of my dogs now due to having to rehome the other. She has been so patient with us as had set backs lately. She was brill when I just messaged her so upset about rehoming my other dog. She really cares about all the dogs she works with and you can see that. The seminars she does too for us reactive dog owners are brilliant I was so impressed with what I learnt but also she had got us dog owners together and it was so good as you talk together and realise you are not the only one with a reactive dog. Would highly recommend to anyone Tasha isn’t the closest trainer to us but we are happy traveling for seminars and walks in towns with Tasha as takes a lot for me to trust and feel confident with someone with my animals and from the first meeting with Tasha we knew found a good trainer.

Easily the best trainer in the area. So many local classes are bias toward breed and use training techniques I find unacceptable but not Tasha. She doesn't judge what type of dog you have or what behaviour issues you might be struggling with, all she wants is the best for your animal.
On top of one to one training for the more serious problems us dog owners sometimes face, she also holds seminar days that focus on specific areas of dog behavior. Then there's the weekly training classes for basic obedience and socializing your dogs. So there really is something for everyone. Including agility classes which the dogs just love.
She has the knowledge and experience you want from a professional with the compassion and encouragement you could only hope for from a friend. I won't be taking any of my beloved pups anywhere else.

We started using Miyagis about 18 months ago after our Staffy was attacked by a Labrador and became fear reactive towards other dogs. After a set of 121s we moved on to obedience classes and have now progressed to agility training. My 13 year old daughter is the main handler, I am just there to supervise, Tasha has been so patient and understanding with them both, I am really proud of what they have achieved. Tasha is a great trainer, she tells it like it is, but knows her stuff and the results speak for themselves :)

Natasha is someone who knows how to train the dog owner aswell as their dog. She offers great support during class and encourages us humans to put in the hard work reinforcing what has been learnt in class by doing our homework!

Very experienced and high lights the dogs needs and focuses on us as an owners to understand our dogs behaviour and work individually. Group reactive classes are fantastic as it gives us and our dogs confidence to push the boundaries and makes us realise that we’re not the only one with a reactive dog ,and trust each other in a group and our dogs to make another step forward in understanding and supporting our dogs, I’m so happy how far we have moved forward in class and a massive difference in my dog and in myself

Excellent customer service very good information and support throughout the training progress and the classes are absolutely fantastic would recommend to any body

Miyagi's training has help me very much with my dog. Rusty was reactive to dogs and humans. When I first started with Tasha, he had to have a muzzle. He wasn't friendly at all to anyone. After having one to one training rusty is now without his muzzle and will walk off lead, and will greet other dogs on the beach without showing any aggression. He is still nervous of humans, so that is still work in progress. But with Tasha's help I am confident he will improve. I would highly recommend. Tasha is patient , great with all dogs and works with you 100%.

Brilliant trainer, working with my reactive Romanian rescue dog and before 5is Tasha worked with my labrador Buster before he sadly passed away. Would never use anyone else.

Tash is a brill trainer she does one to one and group training. She helps u out with any problems she is also become a good friend .I went to a first aid course for our pets I found it interesting and I passed it Tash was there on hand if u got stuck

We had a few little problems with our dogs that made one big problem Tasha helped us sort out the little problems in a short period of time. It didn't happen over night but by doing the homework she set us we now have calm dogs. Woking with Tasha is like woking with a friend, although she is very professional.

We have been using Miyagi's Dog Training services for the last 4 months, and couldn't be happier with the help and support Tasha has continually provided. She has taken our unsocialised, hyperactive puppy and helped transform her into the loving family pet we dreamt of having.

Tasha always goes above and beyond in helping us and our dog, and any issues or worries we have are quickly resolved.

Her one-to-one sessions are invaluable, as are her group training sessions each Tuesday. Tasha also provides friendly and positive advice regarding nutrition and behavioural matters, which is backed by her numerous awards and qualifications.

We have a German Shepherd with an attitude who does not like strangers or anyone coming to our door.
We had tried a few dog trainers before... the less said about them the better!

Tasha believed in Harry straight away and could read him like a book. By the third visit he was in love with her and ran into her arms at each visit. We learned a lot about about dogs over the next few months and then felt brave enough to start taking Harry out to public places with Tasha. He has improved so much since we found Tasha.

If you're looking for a dog trainer who is down to earth and understands dogs this is your lady.

From Charley being a puppy we have had tremendous support and guidance from Tasha. Charley was very nervous and has since made significant progress with obedience and confidence and now enjoys attending Agilty socialising and having fun.

Tasha has worked with our pup as soon as she was able too with her injections. She’s taught us all ways to train our pup along with giving us fun classes and workshops and working close with us all to gain a good bond. Our dog (Ruby) has come on heaps and bounds and also took up agility training which she loves! Tasha is always at the end of the phone if needed, could t recommend anyone better.

Tasha worked with our fear reactive German Shepherd. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Miyagis, she knows dogs, inside and out. She is continually adding certificates to her never ending education on dogs.

We have 3 dogs one was reactive to children other dogs and most men it only took 4 sessions and we were walking through the town centre something we thought would never happen we can’t thank Tasha enough all dogs deserve the patience and trust to bring the best out in them and Tasha teaches the owners exactly how to get the best out of their dogs

Words can not describe how tasha has complete understanding of my dog and totally understands my dogs needs. She gives 110% and no nonsense Would highly recommend her to anyone AAAA++++++

Tasha has been working with us with the dogs in our house, who are reactive with each other. We have made great progress in a short amount of time and it is all thanks to Tasha's guidance.

Ivy has been coming for quite a while to training Tasha has leant both ivy and myself a lot Ivy his a very lively cockador full of energy I cannot thank praise Tasha enough for the time that she has put ivy and all the dogs that come to class ever week

Before Tasha we were at end of our tether we had four trainers before we met Tasha. Tasha is the only trainer who has been able to make progress with Simba we even tried board and train to no avail. Even though it came highly rated. We heard bout Tasha from a friend and the changes with Simba have been amazing. When we called Tasha we had been visited by the police concerning our dog as he had a scuffle with the dogs next door. Tasha has been able to do obedience with Simba, recall him, walk him, train us, get him close to other dogs Ben though he is closely managed and none of this had happened before, we have never lost Simba with Tasha whereas we did with other trainers when we explain he has no recall, he is a rescue from the Ark and from what we know he has had a really bad start. He's not aggressive but nervous reactive and Tasha has taught us this, helped us with his food and allergies and helped us to become more confident with him, we still have a long way to go until we are fully comfortable with managing Simba alone but the changes in Simba have been amazing.

Tasha is an excellent dog trainer who often will go above and beyond expected service to help, not only your pooch, but you, the owner, as well. Advice is always willingly given, no matter how asked- either in person or through social media. Can not recommend highly enough

Tasha has trained my Staffy for me. His age wasn't an issue as he was six when I first enquired with Tasha. He now has manners and comes off his lead on walks as he now comes back. Fabulous and a fun girl

Tasha is an amazing Trainer

Tasha is a fab trainer , not only does she train your dog but also trains you in dealing with your canine friend , she's patient with you both and nothing is too much trouble , if any problems arise she is on the end of the phone to advise , bottom line , best trainer I have had and wouldn't go anywhere else
