singapaw dog trainer - 1b Ridley Park

We started training when our Labrador puppy was 7 months old. We really appreciated Anita’s approach of positive reinforcement and games, which makes the process fun and stress-free both for owners and puppies. At the same time it was very effective and we learned lead walking (the hardest part for us) is just few lessons. Anita helped us to “interpret” our dog’s body language and thinking process, enabling us to better understand and bond with her. Anita also gave us great advice on how to take care of our pup - feeding, grooming, and what to expect during puppetry etc. The training helped our dog to follow commands, build confidence, and also helped us to better understand her and be better owners

Anita was fantastic with our Miniature Schnauzer puppy, Herbie! She is very professional and knowledgeable around all aspects of puppy training and dog ownership. Not only did Herbie learn a lot, we as owners also took away lots of great information to help Herbie's development.

Our family identified a few points where we wanted our 6 year old dog to improve on. Anita has been a great help to address these points by giving us instructions and things to practice with our dog. We followed (and still follow) her training instructions and we saw first improvements to our dogs behavior quickly. After completing 6 sessions we achieved our goals and it was really impressive to see how our dog's behavior further improved. Anita is very knowledgeable, has a kind approach to dogs and her instructions / practices worked absolutely great for our dog and us.

I rescued Haggis 2 and half years ago as a puppy. She is a black Singapore special and had been through puppy preschool for basic training, which meant she walked well but with a lot of anxiety problems and boundary issues around the house. It was at this point where I couldn’t eat my meal, or sit next to my boyfriend on the lounge before she would bark and/or try and hump me. I contacted Anita mainly, because I was also unable to get through a single work zoom call without Haggis barking at either me, or at things outside. So I'd been given a recommendation to contact Anita and I immediately loved her approach. Anita has helped Haggis adapt to sleeping separately, general obedience and attention, with reduced barking, and her anxiety when crossing the road has significantly improved. Haggis had a HUGE FEAR of crossing roads at intersections, and in the first few sessions we saw improvements through lead techniques I learned, and by using a harness. I CANNOT BELIEVE how much calmer she is and I have really noticed her as being all round happier! I would highly recommend training packages to ensure you spend time continuously improving and not just specific behaviours - it is nice to know your pet is happier and always learning new things that affect other areas of their behaviour. I am now moving from Singapore to Australia, and Anita is helping me crate train which has been super successful through using the techniques and games we worked on early in our training sessions. Having owned Dogs my entire life, I thought I knew enough of the basics of dog training, but I've been surprised to see how much of her behaviour was in my reaction and her fear that was only worsening because of my reactions. I am confident that I can relax and enjoy time with Haggis - both inside and outside my house - anytime! THANK YOU ANITA!

Anita is someone you definitely need when you get a new pup. She bridges the gap between pawrents and pet and no doubt has helped shed light on our little Sophie’s psyche while she listens to our concerns and worries. She puts a lot of care and dedication into what she does. Thanks Anita! Sophie is still enjoying her daily training.

I found Anita's insights and expertise invaluable on working with my dog. She was very thorough and I saw an immediate improvement in some longstanding negative behaviour I've been trying to change. Would highly recommend her for anyone with any dog issues, big or small. Or just people who like small improvements in the day to day interactions.

Anita was very helpful with giving us many tools and tips on how to train our dog. She patiently explained a lot about dogs and their thinking and behaviour to us as we are first timers, and she was very supportive of our dog’s development throughout his first year, helping him gain confidence and improve his obedience and positive behavioural patterns. Anita is very professional and helpful and has deep experience and knowledge about dogs and their behaviour. I would recommend her to any dog owner who wishes to train their dog to develop good habits and good rapport with their pawrents. Thank you Anita!

If you are reading reviews, hoping to find a solution to help with your lovable but “unique” pup, I’ve been where you are. Anita possess a true gift understanding and identifying both the mental psyche and behavioral traits of dogs. My husband and I had some difficulties with our 5 month old puppy (half Cavalier/half Poodle) with biting, nipping, separation anxiety, walking, everything that comes with that cute puppy face! Anita came to our aid and within moments of our home visit, my pup was transformed. This is not an exaggeration. Anita totally got him. Her method was simple and subtle. We spent a few hours discussing and practicing walking techniques and my hitting her with the barrage of questions, I’d prepared before her visit. She will help you based on your needs and cater to your own home environment. She addressed needs specific behavioral issues- reactivity, aggression, general mayhem- while improving obedience and helping with a deeper understanding of my pup’s thought process! I cannot recommend her enough! Anita will put you on a path of success and happiness with your pup. I swear to you our puppy is happier today than ever before and so are we.
