Our rescue pup Maggie was a bit of a rebel and was not responding to training techniques that we knew or picked up from books and videos. It was getting to the point where we were considering re homing her. Then a friend recommended Grace from Best Mate. Once Grace started with Maggie we saw an immediate improvement and continue to see improvement as we work through the techniques we have been taught. We still have a journey ahead of us but now we're confident Maggie will develop into loving companion instead of a constant source of stress. I would recommend Best Mate Dog Training to anyone, it was worth every penny.

We desperately needed a trainer to help us with our two lovely but high energy dogs when I came across Grace’s website. Training that wasn't food or toy orientated sounded too good to be true, so we didn’t hesitate to get in touch with Grace to find out more, as we had tried so many different training methods that failed and were at wits end, especially with our first baby being due in a few months! Grace’s training method is extremely effective, and we noticed an improvement in our dogs behaviours almost instantly!! They are more relaxed, and we are no longer dreading having visitors over or going for walks. We couldnt be happier with the progress made, and now its all just second nature to us and our dogs. So grateful that we came across Grace and were introduced to this new method of training!! It’s a game changer. Thanks so much Grace!

Grace has been absolutely amazing! We adopted our Huntaway Lab when she was 8 weeks old, she is our first dog so we didn't really have any idea apart from some basics, four months later after completing Grace's program Hollie is so well behaved and always listens to what she's told. We've learnt so much and know we're able to give Hollie her best life. This training was worth every cent, thanks again!

Our 3 year old Border Collie Aria was mostly well behaved, but we had a few main issues that we wanted to sort, now that she is getting a little older! (over excited around guests, selective recall, barking in car etc) We were hesitant to spend money on yet another dog training method (we had tried others in the past), but we are so glad that we made the decision to use Best Mate Dog Training! Grace was great to work with, and after the very first session we felt like we suddenly had control over Aria, as opposed to her just obeying us if she feels like it! We have now completed all the sessions, and have noticed such a huge change in Aria already! We loved that this method isn't food based, and also isn't cruel to your dog. Will be recommending Grace to all our friends with dogs! Thanks Grace!!!

Our husky-cross was extremely stubborn and he really struggled with manners and respect, especially when it came to listening and general recall. With the expert help of Grace and the training she guided us through, our stubborn husky became a well mannered and respectful dog who was able to sit, lay down, heel and come when we asked on the first command and not when he wanted too or when it suited him. Would highly recommend Best Mate Dog Training to anyone who is wanting to gain the respect and friendship from their dog without relying on treat based training. Thanks so much for your help Grace!

Grace was amazing with our 2 dogs, being able to see these guys respond without treats and help settle them a lot more (barking less and listening more).
The whole process was easy to follow, clear to understand and allowed us to work with and practice with them both once they had learnt something in a session. Would highly recommend Grace to anyone who needs help with their dogs in any way. Thanks again Grace for helping our dogs be the best they can be!

Highly recommend Grace and Best Mate dog training. Her no treat based method worked fantastically for instilling good behaviour from the start for our Boarder Collie puppy. Easy to learn and apply long term for an obedient puppy now and in the future. We’re super impressed with our wee Duke who can already sit, stay, not jump up and come when called.
Thanks Grace.

The training method is very effective: I could see the difference in my dogs straight away.
Grace is very capable and competent, very clear in he explanations and she can always find the best way to teach even the most stubborn dog.
E.
The difference in our two dogs since working with Grace is incredible. Not only do they listen and follow instructions they are a joy to walk on the lead.
The method Grace uses is easy to follow and makes total sense. There is definitely an element of training the owners as well as the dogs 🥰
Thank you so much Grace, you have made a huge difference to the whole household.

Grace has been fantastic in training the “untrainable” our English bulldog thought he ran the house before Grace came along. We now have a much more calm and respectful dog who doesn’t spend all day trying to eat our toes or steal the kids food. Thanks Grace!
K.
Very knowledgeable and informative. We were shocked at how well Grace’s training methods worked and so quickly too!
Grace is lovely and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for dog training.
Thanks again!!

It was great to get Grace out to help with our puppy. Dezil is a German Shepard and we were under no illusion he was going to be a lot of work and needed to be trained well in order to control what is a large assertive breed. From the very first visit Grace took control and showed us the techniques to gain a positive response from Dezil, the introduction of a halter was what made this easy however this was quite a shock for Dezill until he understood that there were consequences when not following instructions. As we worked through the training it has been great to see the progress Dezill has made and we now have the tools and confidence that we are in control and have the pet that we had hoped for.
I would highly recommended Grace and Best Mate Dog Training for anyone considering training for their dog to be their Best Mate..

We really enjoyed our training sessions with Grace, and feel we have lots of tools that are helping us to make our dog Elsie a more settled member of our family. We have been able to cure Elsie of lots of her annoying puppy behaviours and she’s making good progress in other areas too. Thank you!

We adopted a two year old dog from the SPCA, Due to Albie’s background he had no training and was anxious and nervous and did things like pull on his leash, barked and jumped at other dogs while out walking, barked at visitors even if he was placed outside , and even barked at us if we gave him a fright. Grace adjusted her training so that we did the handling as he would not allow her near him and the training was still so very helpful and 100 % what we needed. Even after the first two visits there was a change in his behaviour and Grace’s methods are so easy to learn that even my 8 year old daughter is able to apply the methods herself . Grace was very patient and she doesn’t rush you into anything. What an investment!! it’s been a great outcome for us all. It’s so easy to take him for walks now, he better understands what is good and not good behaviour and it’s been fantastic. So pleased with Grace’s work she is worth giving a call. Thankyou Grace .Happy to have found you . All the best from Albie and the family .

“Can't recommend Grace highly enough. We are first time dog owners with little knowledge on how to train our pup, Maisie. Maisie was defiant, unruly and liked to play bite (quite painfully!) everyone she met, as well as jumping up. In just one session, Maisie was a different pup. We couldn't believe it. We got rid of the biting, she is much calmer and as a bonus she was trained not to come in to the kitchen. We are a work in progress on the jumping up, but the issue is with us being consistent in her training.”

I used Grace to help me work on Venom my English Pointers stubborn attitude and bad listening skills. Grace was very patient with us, really supportive and we are seeing a difference in him. I would recommend Grace's services.
T.
Grace is a brilliant trainer whose methods worked incredibly quickly for our very boisterous Springer Spaniel Jock. Super happy with where he is at now, and will keep pushing him along with the training methods that Grace taught us
Highly recommended trainer of both Jock and owners
Thanks so much!!

Ok, we have an eight month old female spoodle puppy called Charlie, she was shaping up to be out of control and constantly in trouble, completely disobediant, barking, pulling on the lead, chewing, chasing cats, unreliable, she was heading for the trademe dogs for sale page, I had wasted $1,800.00 on a bad dog.
Along comes Grace, after six sessions Charlie is a completely different dog now (so are the owners) shes mostly obediant, showing real good sign for a nine month old pup. Off hunting in two weeks time so will really know then how shes going but shes showing signs of being a great dog.
Thanks Grace you literally saved Charlies bacon.

Grace was an absolute God send foe us training our new puppy. We had no idea what to do with a puppy but now we feel like pros!! Highly recommend!!!

I cannot recommend Grace enough we have been trying for years to stop our GSD from running in circles and chasing her tail and nothing worked until we worked with Grace Mia responsed so quick we managed to smash out all our goals in the first 3 hour session!!! We recommend Grace 100%
K.
We used Best Mate Dog Training and cannot recommend them enough. The trainer was very friendly and knowledgeable. The difference in the behaviour of our dog even after one session was unbelieveable.

I was struggling with our lock down puppy, thankfully found Grace and with her guidance and expert help Ted is now a pleasure to take out, he is still a work in progress but everyday he make me so proud 😁
Thank you Grace you're amazing 👏
