Definitely Trained for Life
Lez is the most amazing trainer. I first went to train with her about eight years ago. We had a very strong, wilful Labrador - quite unlike the gentle Lab we had owned before - with fear aggression. Lez encouraged and taught us how to work with her to overcome a lot of these problems.
When we got a working cocker spaniel puppy three years later, we enrolled in the basic manners training class. Initially I felt like we were training on quicksand with Twiggy taking time to grasp the concept of calm, heel, come and how to control her generally high octane behaviour. But we persevered and eventually progressed through the bronze, silver and gold classes - finally getting our Kennel Club Working Gun Dog Certificate. Lez is firm but kind with her training and even now when I call Twiggy, I can here Lez's voice saying, "Twiggy what?' - i.e. I hadn't actually given her a commend!
I feel so strongly about the excellent, gentle, thorough way Lez trains that I now find it difficult not comment when I see other people being rough or shouty with their dogs. There is no need. Twiggy is now a joy to work - as a peg dog, a picker up and a beating dog. She works for either my husband or me and we have had so many compliments how, despite her obvious spaniel zest for life, she is is obedient and steady. She is also the most wonderful pet in our family. All in all, I cannot recommend Lez's training and books more highly and feel lucky to have trained with her for so long. Thank you Lez for being my mentor and guide.
