Canine Karma Reviews 

The friendliness and professionalism of the staff made a difference. It increased our confidence that we could rectify some (all?) Of Zeus' poor behaviour.

My Stberdoodle, Bernie, has been going to Canine Karma’s daycare for about 9 months now and he loves it. Not only does he get the chance to have fun and play with the other dogs but it works as a training session as well. We’ve also used Oli and Kevyn for private sessions as Bernie, being a 50kg boy, sometimes needs guidance on what to do and not to do. They have always given amazing advise and taught me how to walk with Bernie and how to have more confidence! I would highly recommend their daycare and training!!

Oliver was great! His training was clear and concise which made it easy to follow. The effect on our dog has been very noticeable and we now have a much calmer home. Thank you Oliver!!

Don’t just trust me! Test it out yourself!
Day care: they teach the calm which is amazing to my dog Betsy as well as dog etiquette!

Boarding: heated flooring and classical music pretty cool for relaxing Betsy!

Huxley (3 year old Flat Coated Retriever) is home again, after another 3-day stay at Canine Karma boarding kennels. He has stayed there several times before and attends their day care facility at least once a week. This is not like any other kennels/day care facility. It is staffed by highly trained dog professionals/trainers, who really know what they are doing and also have a great love of dogs. No need to feel guilty when you're away. Your dog is loved, socialised with every breed/age/size of dog, well exercised and stimulated throughout the day and always arrives home in a calm and contented state. Nothing else like it, in our experience. We even went the whole hog and had our water/mud loving dog professionally groomed by the wonderful Ellie before he came back. Thank you all so much for that few days of human relaxation. Karen & Sean

Ollie and Canine Karma came recommended to us. We thought the price for the 121 training was pricey initially but you get what you pay for and we can’t recommend him highly enough and he is worth every penny.

Our sessions with Ollie have been brilliant as well training our puppy he has built our confidence to handle different situations and most of it is really simple.

We will continue our training with Ollie and train ourselves as we need the repetition too.

Our Puppy has also stayed at Canine Karma Resorts and we love the fact that he is out and about socialising with all the other dogs during his stay, he will be back to see his friends again this year.

My dogs stayed in the kennels over New Year for a few days. I was a bit nervous leaving them, like most dog owners I shouldn’t have been. My dogs came back happy and healthy. When I came to collect them, I saw them running around with other dogs in the enclosure. They were having a superb time.

Really great experience with Ollie, he’s very knowledgeable and encouraging in training me - because it’s usually us not the dog, right? Marvin now walks much better on the lead than he did. We’ve got a few more things to sort (he’s a full on teenager!) but I know I’ll get the help I need, so I’ll be back! Thanks Ollie and your team.

Training with Oliver with my two JR Laddie Gresley has made a big difference with walking them. He told me where I was going wrong and with a change of leads they stopped pulling Laddie was nervous of dogs bigger than him and Oliver brought his dog Milo for walk with mine which helped him get over his fear He helped with recall and I now have two better behaved dogs who most important now enjoy their walks more as well as myself. I didn’t think that would happen after my 3 sessions I would 100% recommend Oliver to anybody who dog needs training

Our rescue dog is very reactive to other dogs and we all struggled to enjoy our walks. After, just one of our 3 sessions, walks became much more enjoyable and easier for all of us! Ollie was brilliant at understanding our concerns and giving us insights in to our dog and how we could be better at understanding our dog.

Ollie has been a huge help with our Rottweiler puppy! We wanted to make sure we were doing everything right and Ollie has been great. He’s really helped us with socialisation, recall, lead walking and settling indoors. A year later we’re keeping up the training tips we learned from Ollie, and we have a very happy Rottie! It’s clear that he really cares about the dogs and his expertise is impressive. We’ll definitely keep in touch with Ollie and the canine Karma team and book more sessions in the future to keep up the progress! Would highly recommend

It’s just what Luna needed. When I picked her up they were spot on with the things we need to work on. Would def consider the training

Chaos to Calm. Excellent 4 sessions with Kevyn for me & 2 adolescent rescue hounds resulting with relaxed lead walking, better human to hound communication. Happy well adjusted dogs who now have a far better idea what’s expected of them with their human having a far better idea how to achieve that! A jolly good experience for all concerned, thank you.

Dotty & Buster had a great stay. And the team were excellent at sending videos and photos. They also managed a vet trip for B and subsequent treatment , which was great as we were miles away.

Been struggling to walk a 3 year old Rottweiler since he was bitten when puppy.very reactive towards dogs.had 4 sessions with Kevyn and now I have completely different dog.can’t thank him enough for bringing the joy of owning a dog again.

Great service as always. Our dogs have been going here for over a year now and love it and are so much better behaved too. I recently called Canine Karma very last minute to have them over night due to a death in the family and they went over and above as always. They are always very accommodating with my mother in law's dog too as my father in law is very ill and they often help out at short notice - we are so happy that we have them. Thank you!

We called in Ollie after our 13 month Rottweiler, Noelle started barking at strangers in the street. After our first session we were able to walk her again and with confidence and after three sessions we have three dogs all in line and a calm home once again (which was completely Chaotic). It has been truely life changing and will be able to carry out the skills Ollie taught us in the future. We also send Noelle to Doggy Day Care which she has become a more confident dog (who once wouldnt go through a puddle to strolling straight through them). Could not recommend Ollie and Canine Karma enough!

Ollie was the most fantastic trainer. He sorted out the issues we were having with our Golden Retriever in just 3 sessions and this has been a complete game changer. I would highly recommend him and thought his expertise, patience and kind, friendly manner were just perfect. We cannot thank him enough!

I got in touch with Canine Karma as my large 3 year old dog, jura, had changed from a well socialised, friendly dog, to one who barked unpredictably at other dogs, at fast moving bicycles and scooters, runners, and running children. Walking had become restricted to a couple of routes and the times were chosen to avoid other dogs.
Enter Kevyn.
He had an instant rapport with Jura and on our first walk we went through the High Street, unthinkable in recent months, and on to the churchyard. There we came across squirrels, emboldened pigeons, and finally her arch nemesis a large labrodor. Instead of the usual barking and lunging, Kevyn asked Jura to sit and the labrodors owner walked him back and forth three times without any reaction from Jura. Result!
From then on, Kevyn showed me the correct way of walking Jura, the importance of me being relaxed, and suggested I take her to the park every day.
At our last session we went to St Albans market where the general bustle, food smells, and street music were a first for Jura. As a finale, we got on a crowded bus and Jura just settled down quietly.
Our world has opened up considerably thanks to Canine Karma, and my family are astonished at the transformation in Jura. I now have a well behaved dog, that I am happy to take anywhere.

I really didn't want to leave my dog with anyone else - but really needed a holiday. I took a tour of Canine Karma and was immediately satisfied that Dexter would be really well cared for. The level of detail the staff go into, to make sure that your dog is properly looked after is excellent.

Dexter came home looking healthy and happy. I can't talk highly enough of Canine Karma and their staff.
