Lara was an amazing help with our GSD who had become nervous around some dogs. She took the time to speak with us, analyse his behaviour, and provide adapted recommendations. Thanks to her advice and training, he is now much calmer and can once again enjoy playing with other dogs. I strongly recommend
Maisie
Lara has been just brilliant with us and Maisie, guiding us through those early days with a puppy and then onto more specific training. We honestly could not have survived getting a puppy during lockdown/Covid without Lara’s help and support. Best of all, Maisie loves Lara
Rusk
We are so greatful for all of your help and support. We have a 5yr old vizsla who is scared of the road. Working very hard to get him over his fear. She is very supportive and patient with Rusk which he responds well to. I would definitely recommend her services!
Lara has been brilliant and has really helped us with our rescue dog Milo. He’s come on leaps and bounds since seeking Lara’s advice and she’s been amazing with making herself available through zoom talks/ social distanced outside meetings during COVID-19. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for some help in understanding every aspect of their dog.
Milo
Best decision ever. Lara helped us to understand our dog Bella better and the training is invaluable. Can only recommend.

Great experience, she understands the dog but most importantly she understand us. We have followed Lara’s guidance for the past 2 weeks and we have seen a very positive change in our baby! Highly recommended.
Bonnie
Kind, expert, friendly. Lara has been fantastic so far, and we feel more equipped each time we speak. My 12 and 14 year old sons are learning so much too, Lara really makes this a family affair, and we are all enjoying having a puppy as a family member the more as a result.
Excellent initial video consultation ,went through lots of different causes and gave some very good tips on changes that could be made. Have also had follow up video call and will be doing some work on site next week %100 happy so far. Lara is wonderful who relates to all our requests and has many sources of input. Very passionate and good fun . Looking forward to next session. Simon & Natalie

Lara was immediately understanding of our situation and I felt reassured just talking to her on the phone. She came to us the next day and was incredibly helpful. We now have te means to manage the situation and can call Lara for more help if we need it.

I was very impressed with Lara’s approach and i felt that we achieved a lot during that first session. She is very knowledgeable and has a great connection with our dog. I am looking forward to continuing working with her.

Absolutely fantastic !
Such a positive visit and Lara has already given me confidence to know how to positively reward and interact with Niyla so she learns in the right way.
Lara was full of interesting facts and information which has really helped me to understand Niyla’s behaviours and why she may be acting the way she is. I have great tips and advice on what I can work on until our next visit and have already put these in place. I can wholeheartedly recommend Lara to anyone who is looking to improve behaviours or just to understand their dogs needs as she is friendly, welcoming and you can just tell she has a passion for what she is doing. She’s already helped me so much and I’ve only had 1 visit.

We were looking for help with our Vizsla, in particular how to calm her around visitors. Lara really helped us to understand why she was acting in certain ways and how we could make easy but consistent changes to keep her calm. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lara - she has a great combination of the latest theory and dog psychology with practical things you can do that really work.

Lara is a very professional lady who knows how to engage her clients, both four and two legged. Her excellent advice took account of the needs of my rescued dog and his novice owner and was supported with notes and references forwarded after her visit.
I am delighted to have found her, with her devotion to animals, and her warmth to owners. She has a great sense of fun. and I am looking forward to her help with 'off the lead' fun.

The main thing that came across was Lara's love of dogs. Very experienced, and practical. Lara did a home visit to our two whippets and we had a lovely chat with some easy and helpful practical suggestions that we are now using successfully . Thanks Lara!
Daisy
Great response time and had a great chat over the phone Lara really put things into perspective and I am really looking forward to working with her with my pup.

Lara has been amazing with us. Quick to reply, call and arrange a visit. She obviously loves her job and helped to explain so well what is going on in our dogs mind. Her advice and tips have already made such a difference. Her follow up emails have also been invaluable to refer to what we did and what to do to continue her fantastic work with our dog. I would definitely recommend her.. if your dog has issues and you need some expert help don’t hesitate to call Life of Riley!
Lara was brilliant. Very kind and calm. She has put some useful steps in place and helped provide some interesting information and items to purchase to help too. All around recommended highly.
