Testimonials
Flurina is amazing - her approach is non judgemental, informative and gentle
Hurray for Flurina !
The sessions are varied but most of all fun which our dog loves and she now actually looks forward to her training.
Flurina has exceeded all of my expectations (despite coming highly recommended) and I can’t recommend her enough - on top of this she’s a lovely person to boot. A pleasure to work with, thank you Flurina!
We now have a confident little dog and have continued to work with Flurina with both our dogs. We have attended her pack walks, 6 week course and paws in the city which has been great for improving their behaviour and socialisation.
I would not hesitate to recommend Flurina both Max and Malaika (and us) have benefited.
It got so bad that we were unable to walk our dog and her behaviour became such a huge and sad issue for us.
Over the sessions Flurina got to know our dog, Oona, and worked intensively with her to modify her behaviours by getting to the root of the issue and changing her perceptions of other dogs.
We are now able to walk Oona and understand her so much more. We are so much happier and confident.
I recommend Canine Sense and Flurina so highly. She has honestly changed our lives.
On top of all that Flurina is an absolute joy, a lovely person who I fully trust to help my dog now and in the future.
Obi was our first dog, we thought we were prepared but you can never be prepared enough i think with getting a puppy! We got absolutely overloaded with advice online, videos of what do do, tik tok trainers providing mixed messages, only doing training in a certain way and so forth which really confused us and stressed us out.
Obi is incredibly excitable (Goldens!) to the point we struggled to take him anywhere because he would not rest, be desperate to engage with everyone, whine and cause lots of problems and also at one point injured me because he would constantly try and pull too much on walks!
We had 4 sessions with Flurina and it absolutely transformed our relationship with Obi. He is still a adolescent so you still have to help manage him through crazy times but we have so much more engagement, trust, control and fun with him now we know how to have good times with him and what to do if he gets a bit too over excited.
We didn't realise how much training comes through play time, a lot of what you see online is to do so much with treats but that isnt everything you should do on its own. We have lots of fun training games with him now. He knows commands for when we are not happy with what he is doing so he now knows to stop. We know what to do when he gets a bit too crazy. We also now know he can be trusted off lead more which we did do a lot of already as his recall was good but we were not confident of him around other dogs. He is now growing into a really good adult dog thanks to the shaping and guidance Flurina has given us.
She also has helped clear up misconceptions around tools that get a negative reputation online such as a prong collar. Using this correctly with the right training absolutely changed the game for us. Obi has so much fun still but now knows what i am trying to tell him to do. He has no fear of it which is what online stuff made us believe. As we are using it the right way with really great training we now have full confidence and fun with him and Obi knows now what we want, he is having so much fun and actually looks way happier than before when we are out. He walks to heel and can maintain that even past distractions.
I cannot recommend Flurina enough. We now have a great adolescent dog that will grow into a great adult thanks to the work we put in with Flurina.
