Skye the Spirited Collie š¾
Skye was full of life ā pulling, barking, and chasing her way through the world in true collie mayhem style! Thankfully, she and her owner decided to channel that energy in the right direction through positive, structured training.
And who better to tell the story than Skye herselfā¦
A letter from Skye:
Hello,
Iām Skye, a typical Border Collie. When my owner threatened to swap me for a cat, we started lessons with Jayne. Training a dog takes experience and understanding and thatās what Jayne has.
As well as the excellent one to one training, my owner received a series of Training Notes (we particularly liked the section about de-sensitisation and counterconditioning – pairing āMonsters” with Very Good Things, i.e treats!) My owner also received essential tips for Bonfire Night and helpful CDs so that Iām now relaxed about all kinds of noises. I even received a delicious Training Treat recipe!
With Jayneās help my owner has developed the skills to use the right command in the right situation which means I can now display good manners in any social situation – with other dogs. with children and with grown-ups – I was even allowed in a coffee shop the other day!
Having worked with Jayne Iām now a calm, contented, civilised companion and a perfect family pet.
Thank you Jayne!
Love Skye

Jayneās note:
Thank you, Skye! Iām so glad your mum didnāt swap you for a cat ā we might never have met! Iām thrilled to see how beautifully youāve blossomed into a confident, happy young lady. Keep practising, keep playing, and keep smiling.
With love,
Jayne x
…post script from Skye’s mum,
Sheās been a super girl lately and when passing a couple of men this morning in a narrow area she didnāt react – finely managed to keep a loose lead! Itās great to hear people I hardly know say what a great dog she is – well done you!
