Reviews & Testimonials For Keiko Ruwhiu

Keiko was amazing. She was methodical and calm and helped us to understand what we were doing wrong. Her training methods were simple and so effective. Our dogs have almost stopped their barking and are totally calm and obedient. They are so much fun and we are enjoying them without the stress of being out of control. Thank you Keiko.

I was really amazed by how fast Nova started responding to the training. By the end of the 1st session she had improved 90%. It is now almost a week after our first session and she is doing unbelievably great. Some of our biggest problem areas are already a thing of the past: 1: Jumping up and scratching the kids' faces. 2: Pulling uncontrollably on the lead. 3: Barking at everything that moves outside the yard. 4: Speeding out the second a door or gate opens (she now waits behind me) 5: Digging holes in the grass. Keiko really knows what she's talking about. I would (and have) recommend her to anyone!

What a great experience. Keiko has a great way in explaining and showing you the signs to look for in understanding and speaking 'dog'. Very early on some simple techniques and changes in what I was doing showed an instant result. It definitely is about training the owner and I have to say Keiko is wonderful at this. With the resources left for me to follow and the next catch-up training session to happen soon, I am already feeling a lot more confident and my George is a lot happier.

Our Maltese has always had problems listening to our instructions. We were very pleased with Keiko's extensive preparation and clear communication to ensure we can take steps to alleviate this issue. With just one lesson (and making sure that we follow our homework!) we think that there is already an improvement in Wenji's demeanour and interactions with us. Thank you very much, Keiko we look forward to continuing to work with you :)

Keiko arrived started with an explanation of the training methods we would use. Nothing was rushed and the training session went well and I am confident that with Keiko's help the problems will be resolved. Some behaviours are already changing and it has only been one day. I will be doing my part to make this work. I was impressed.

Keiko was very good in providing information regarding training for Roxy. Roxy seemed to respond well to the correction and other commands.

Keiko was a wonderful trainer. We have 2 very boisterous Staffy puppies - one is deaf. She demonstrated how to easily manage them with effective behavioural correction techniques. We now have a plan and some hope.

Thorough, thoughtful, personalised. I really appreciated Keiko's approach, gentle but firm. She worked with us and our dog towards our own goals and was very knowledgeable; able to answer all my questions in full. I never expected to make so much progress in one day! My Chihuahua puppy was always tugging at the lead on walks but after 5mins practice in the driveway with Keiko guiding us, he was walking perfectly to heel. We also had quick results on door manners and we have a clear plan on what to do each day to continue and develop this good behaviour. I am very happy with Keiko's process and the results.

We were really impressed by Keiko. We saw a different side of our dog within minutes, and today (less than 24 hours later), he is behaving much better already.

We have had very good training session and guidance from Keiko. She makes it easy to train a dog and gives us good strategies and practical tips on how to walk our dog. She follows up on training visits and willing to accommodate to suit our schedules. Keiko has a good over knowledge about dogs, and their behaviour patterns and training.

Keiko was very good. We are happy to finally communicate effectively with our dog.

Training was excellent and very easy to understand for all the family.
