“Tarka Dog Training has been fantastic, the puppy classes were brilliant, our puppy and us have learnt and improved so much from them. Zara has been amazing, always giving great advice and different strategies to try whenever we needed it throughout the process. Couldn't recommend Tarka Dog Training enough! ”

“We can’t recommend Zara enough!! 5 sessions with her & we have learnt so much and have seen such an improvement in our boy Fred The management tools and drills Zara has taught us has given us so much more knowledge & confidence when it comes to helping Fred be the best version of himself!! We feel calmer on walks and more understanding of his behaviours and what we can do to guide him towards the desired behaviours we want rather than those he was displaying. Thank you so much Zara - we will continue to work hard with Fred and hopefully we’ll continue to have him loose lead walking, barking less & loving (or at least coping with) fast moving scooters, bikes & runners! Thanks again from us all - Ellie, Beth & Fred ”

“Zara is amazingly intuitive. She knows immediately how to help owners to work with their dog in a kind, encouraging and gentle way. The results are so rewarding. I couldn’t recommend her enough. After just one session with Zara, Duggee our lively boy was walking beautifully on his lead with lots of focus on us. Delighted doesn’t come close.”
