Sitdropstay Dog Training Testimonials

I can't thank you enough for the transformational work you've done with my dog Cooper in helping him accept our new kitten. Your breadth and depth of understanding of dogs is most impressive. In addition, your understanding of human behaviour makes what you offer so cutting edge. Above all, your professionalism and open nature makes you a leader of leaders in your industry. I was surprised how much I learned about myself through our session. I realized I was meeting my needs through Cooper. which disempowered both of us, even though it felt good and right. Only when I understood Coopers model of the world, could I meet his needs. I now believe our  dog's behaviour is a mirror reflection of our own conscious/unconscious thoughts. I will now lead with the highest of intentions through love.

We are considered by many to be leaders in the field of dog training but on several occasions with both work and home dogs I have used George's services because his general knowledge of animal behaviour far outstrips ours.

Sitdropstay has changed our lives. It was amazing to watch within the space of minutes our usually boisterous, unruly dogs doing anything George told them. After the 2 hour consult we had dogs who wanted to listen to us. It was truly an enlightening experience. The changes were amazing, immediate and lasting. We now have a much greater understanding of our dogs behaviour and they are far calmer and happier. As dog parents this was the best thing we have ever done for our dogs and ourselves. We cannot recommend George and Sitdropstay highly enough. Thank you George

Having been interested in the field of Dog, Cat and Bird behaviour for many years, I have seen and tried many different methods of dealing with behaviour problems and approaches to training. George came to our practice this year to help train our staff deal with our patients and clients more effectively. We were all both impressed and inspired by Georges calm, straightforward and elegantly simple approach to understanding dog behaviour. Georges insightful approach to dog behaviour has really helped us manage our patients and provide our clients with much better information about relating to their pets.

I just had to make contact with you to thank you so much for changing our lives. I consider myself reformed and have become the pack leader. Max and Abbie now play together UNBELIEVABLE. All in all I think it was probably the most productive two hours of my life. Tim cannot believe the outcome.

Having known and worked closely with George in this industry I would rate him amongst a handful of people who truly understand canine behaviour and more importantly, know how to apply this knowledge positively and humanely.

George absolutely changed our family life for the better. We now have a perfectly behaved dog and a happy family again. Thank you, thank you George you are amazing.

I am writing to thank you for your time and patience yesterday. My young male is already a different dog, and has not jumped on anyone since you left. Today was a very calm day- only one bark at the fence. I took them both out today and they were a delight to walk. I have already recommended you to several friends and will not hesitate to sing your praises to anyone who will listen. Thanks again for your calm, logical and sensible approach to my dogs.

My vet refers to you as the Dog Whisperer and I definitely agree. Have dealt with other dog trainers before, but you are by far the best. We found you to be professional, friendly and definitely caring about our dogs.

Rose Marimon - Canberra

I just want to thank you for the time you spent training Gypsy (and me). I think you must have hypnotized her, she was a really nice dog before, but is now a perfect dog. I cant believe how quickly we have both learned from you. I am truly impressed by your expertise.

Irene sivyer - Adelaide

I'm delighted to report that after your consultation our fence jumping problem appears to be cured. It's really quite amazing. Really can't thank you enough for your advice. She seems a lot happier and secure than she was as well. Great result - thanks very much for your very sensible and effective advice. It was money well spent.

I had seven dog trainers to choose from. I trusted my gut feeling and you delivered everything I was hoping for.

PAM - CANBERRA

Very impressive. I was hoping id be impressed

I just wanted to keep you updated regarding your visit on Saturday. Deablo has barked half a dozen times since Saturday and each time we have followed your instructions and he has responded well. I am yet to speak to our neighbors but know they would be so much happier with the peace and quiet! You really truly did save a 12 year old boy from being traumatized over the loss of his (mate) pet & have given all of us the opportunity to love our dog all over again!! So thank you!! All in all the change in Deablo and us humans is amazing. He seems so much more relaxed & I am confident, thanks to your amazing insight that things will remain calm & under control.
With huge amounts of thanks, Tina & Tye (& Deablo) - Nerang

We had problems with our two dogs and the previous dog trainer's solution was to re home the younger dog. Thankfully we found George. George worked wonders with our dogs. We now have two very happy well behaved dogs and two very happy dog owners.

Was thinking last night to drop you a line and let you know how everything has been going, so far - brilliant! Bear & Gia have both been displaying manners inside the house most of the time, there have been a few lapses (but after running wild so long, everyone is bound to slip up & forget) - but they haven't gone without immediate correction. Walking Bear is now a breeze, the ideals have also worked on the boyfriend… you were right! Overall it has become a relaxed, calm & enjoyable household to be in again.
Beck Gower - Brisbane

You recently trained my dog Bison (the Bulldog), and well i guess me and Rogan as well. I just wanted to thank you so much for your training and advice. We saw such a wonderful change in him and can't thank you enough! I can actually take him for a normal walk now and he's obeying our commands. Which means I'm not getting in trouble off Rogan!
Jayde PHILLIPSON - GOLD COAST

Thank you so much for coming out and seeing Reiph on Saturday. Rich and I learnt so much from your visit, particularly about 'leadership'. We are still marveling at how well behaved Reiph has been since your time with us. Reiph has become this chilled out, happy, obedient puppy. He is a pleasure to have around again!!
Richard, Majella & Reiph - Brisbane

We just wanted to say thank you for your honesty and integrity. It is so refreshing to meet someone such as yourself.

I wanted to write to thank you for your help with our Staffy, April. She is a different dog since your visit, and we often regard, that it was the best money we've spent. She is now a pleasure to walk, trotting at the heel placidly, and has illustrated several times, that she is no longer aggressive to other dogs. The day after your visit, we were in the park, practicing out sit, drop, stay exercises, and a large free Labrador came bounding up ready to play! April was on the lead, which would usually have eventuated in a scuffle with bared teeth and hackles up! But instead, she looked to me for direction! AMAZING difference. Since that time, we have come across many other dogs on their walks, and we've had no problems what so ever. She is a changed and very relaxed dog! So thank you for your help, and advice. Thanks to you, we are really enjoying our pet.

Its great. People are amazed. We'd recommend Sitdropstay to anyone.
Mark - Adelaide, South Australia

Absolutely miraculous! Our 1 year old was impossible. Embarrassing even to walk her, among other issues. Other forms of training didn't work. Then we contacted George. In 2 hours he taught her to listen and showed us how to take back control

Thank you George, Matt, Nat & Jazz - Brisbane

We are over the moon. They're like two different dogs. Its amazing what a couple of hours
can do.
Thank You, Teresa and Mark - Adelaide, South Australia

We were astounded at how George turned around the behaviour of our 6.5 year old dog (who we thought was beyond help) in a matter of minutes. More importantly, the results lasted after he left and my husband and I now feel confident about walking our dog because we are now in control. We would definitely recommend his services to anyone who feel as though they are not demonstrating the leadership that their dog needs and needs some help with any behavioural or training issues . Our dog went from nearly pulling us over every time we walked her to not going past our knees with no tension on the lead whatsoever. The results have been remarkable and very easy to achieve. Our only regret is not contacting sitdropstay earlier!
Jessica and Micheal - Canberra

I have just returned from a walk on the main road with Amani and he was an absolute pleasure to walk. He didn't pull, or try to chase the hubcaps of cars. He is now happily asleep on his bed. It was a pleasure to meet you George and be able to chat about alternative therapies. I'm always amazed at the synchronicity of meeting people. Thank you for empowering me to be a leader and reminding me to be present and live in the now like he does.

Collette - Wellington pt Brisbane

Hi. Just wanted to thank you for all your help with my cattle x kelpie dog  Molly. In the two weeks since you've been we have seen a drastic improvement in her behaviour. She is a different dog!! We took her out in public which was usually a huge challenge and she was as good as gold. She
never used to respond when we called her at the dog park and now she runs to our side. She now waits to be invited inside and waits at the gate before being invited into the car. She is a joy to be with. Thanks again. You've made our home so much more peaceful. I'm amazed at the difference.

Tracey - Brisbane

We would like to thank you for your help with our dog Izzy. She is now learning to listen and behave. Your training was fantastic and has made life a lot easier for us.

Tracy, sharon & Izzy young - underwood qld

Good to talk to you this morning and to be able to give you such a positive report about our 2 dogs. Beso is really so much more relaxed. Many thanks to you and your methods.

Hi George. Just thought we would keep you up to date with progress since your visit. Both Rodney and Stella have stopped barking. It happened practically overnight. We would really like to say a huge thank you for all your advice. We are now feeling very confident to leave the dogs alone when we go out. We would recommend you to any dog owner.

karen, matt and will owen - act

Just thought that I would let you know that Lilly and I are getting on much better and she is being good 99% of the time. She has stopped jumping on the kids and Kane(4 year old) is walking her on her lead with Jacko (the older mutt) and I. Thanks so much for returning my sanity and helping me to calm Lilly.

Renee gibbons - greenbank qld

George, I would like to say how impressed we were with you. We had 4 very spoilt, unruly dogs and they are all well on their way to being happy well behaved pets. Thank you so much.

Jacqui and natalie - brisbane

Thank you for your help with Ginga. I was amazed by her sudden acquired walking skills. In only one week we have seen such a drastic change in her behaviour. I no longer feel like I am dislocating my arm every time I walk her.

K. Power- Canberra

It was great to see such a wonderful improvement in Jets behaviour in such a short time. I can now take him for walks confident he'll behave around other dogs.

Jude - seaford S.a.

We thought our dogs were untrainable. Within an hour they were walking down the street unrestrained and totally under control, ignoring dogs they normally would have gone crazy at.
