Testimonials

It really didn’t take long…

I am happy to recommend Justin Jordan’s training program as I have found it very successful. An anonymous neighbour lodged a complaint to the council regarding our Maltese’s barking. I had tried to reduce her barking to little effect. We didn’t want to annoy people from adjoining properties so turned to Justin.

I did practice Justin’s exercises and techniques and changed some of my own behaviours. In a very short time, we had a gorgeous quiet Maltese who was also able to complete simple training commands including new tricks. She loves the one-on-one attention and I like making a point of spending quality time with my dog – the reason I bought a dog in the first place was to love her to death (a toy dog’s whole purpose).

Our family, our dog and I am sure our neighbour is very happy. It really didn’t take long or too much work to see dramatic results. I am very happy with Justin’s system. 

Puppy school was awesome

I attended Justin’s puppy school with one of my foster BFR puppies and he was awesome. In those four lessons I learned so much to take home with me, to help not only Phoenix but the foster dogs that followed him. Thanks Justin. 

Your compassionate ‘whispering’ technique really does work…

We are both closer to 70 than 50. Having taken (by family default) a young cattle dog (the formerly ignored and boisterous Heidi) out of compassion rather than want of companionship, life has not been in our control!

Since Heidi arrived, we have become reclusive. Our friends, relatives and grandchildren no longer wish to visit. Our parkside walks lonely, as people deliberately walk the other way or take the long way round. Not because Heidi is vicious but because of her ‘pack leader’ mentality and over abundance of energy and enthusiasm. Jumping up, nipping, out of control behaviour, etc.

Justin, thank you. In just two lessons, Heidi is becoming more socially acceptable and easier to handle. You have been so generous with your time, clear in your approach, confident in your assessment and with a bottom line, non aggressive training method that is delivering better animal ownership rewards from the first time we met.

Your compassionate ‘whispering’ technique really does work. We are increasingly confident that our circle of friends will return to our ambit, including, and most importantly, our grandchildren (under 10’s). Why? Because of your guidance, and the combined confidence of professionalism and better partnership with our dog. Many thanks, and may your business prosper. 

Justin knows the art of understanding dogs

A 2 ½ year old Rottweiler urgently need a loving home. She had been badly treat by a previous owner and had security issues. Our home was her fourth home in her short life. She was an alpha female determined to dominate the household. Difficult to manage and unruly. No training, no manners and little contact with people and she did not like men. She had managed in few days to destroy blinds, doors and walls. I got Justin in to help us train the dog. In actual fact – he came to train us to be good leaders for her. Justin was amazing and had her doing what he wanted her to in the first few minutes.

We have never looked back and are forever thankful to Justin for teaching us the art of understanding language of dogs.

We have a precious Rottweiler who we love and she loves us. Highly recommend Justin and his team. Wonderful caring people.

You saw the potential and convinced us to persevere…

This note is to express our thanks and appreciation for the way in which you helped us with Gus. When your first dog is a 56kg, four year old, male Rottweiler, without any social, behavioural or obedience training, it is always going to be a tough ask; when the dog is thought to have a questionable temperament it is going to be even more difficult.

We took Gus when it became apparent that his original owners could not provide the care and attention he needed. After trying unsuccessfully for several months to find him a home we eventually came to the conclusion that we loved him and decided to keep him ourselves. That presented another range of problems as we lived in a small unit that did not allow pets. After boarding Gus with my mother, he was too boisterous for her, then with my brother, whose own dog had just undergone a knee reconstruction, we eventually located a home that suited all of us. We took responsibility for Gus some six months ago and have experienced a number of challenges. Boisterous is a nice way of saying he was practically uncontrollable. Gus demonstrated every characteristic and behaviour that made it extremely difficult for anyone to want to take him.

Yet despite this, you saw the potential in him and convinced us to persevere. Thank you! Every day we are seeing improvements in Gus that are making it worthwhile. The advice, training and assistance you have provided ensured we learned the necessary skills to enable productive communication that improved not only our lives but Gus’ immeasurably. We would not hesitate to recommend you and your methods to anyone seeking to improve the relationship they have with their dog. Again, please accept our sincere thanks.

Highly recommended!

We took our puppy to preschool to get some training and socialisation. Justin was incredibly helpful, far beyond our expectations. He answered all questions with a wealth of knowledge and patience. At the beginning of the classes, our pup was incredibly shy and hiding from the other pups chasing her. At the end of the classes, she was the one doing the chasing and having so much fun playing. I can’t recommend Jordan dog training highly enough!
