"This was way more than we expected"

“We were so lost and then so lucky to find these guys to guide us on the way to understanding and a happy and healthy life together. Suddenly but with work and patience we were having so much fun training and enjoying our walks just because we began understanding one another better. They always go beyond our expectations giving us great advice and assistance for both ends of the leash supported always with all kind of documentation, research and resources proving how much dedication and love they put in everything they do. We continue with them because we love learning, having fun and they help us becoming the best version of ourselves together.Thank to them we are now in a happy place where we never thought we were going to be.”

"they always go beyond our expectations"

We were first recommended snout & about by our doggie day care as one of our dogs was reactive to other dogs. They fitted us in really quickly. The service from start to finish was amazing! So in depth. They met with our dog and got to know her and listened to us. Our programme was made super fast and it had so much information. We have a new baby and the plan even tailored towards incorporating that aspect. It was 100% the best thing we could have done to get to know our dog better and to understand what she is going through. I would recommend them to everyone and anyone who is looking to get to know their own dog more or to improve knowledge.

"a positive, reinforcing attitude for people"

I cannot recommend Catherine enough. She is amazing with dogs and also with people . My dogs love her. Evidence-based practice presented in "easy to understand" way. We got a brilliant training program in pdf, that includes all information we need. After months of looking for a good trainer/behaviourist working in Cork area we finally found Snout&About. Catherine gave as tools and a lot of support, and all of that with so "positive reinforcing attitude" for people! Thank you Catherine!!!

"they make you feel seen and understood"

I only met Catherine in November but the difference in my dog in that short space of time has been amazing. The daily schedule provided by Snout and about has been a godsend and my dogs confidence is growing say by day. Also the time Catherine spends with us the dog owners made a huge difference as it gave me the confidence and tools to be able to understand and work with my dog. I cannot recommend them enough.5 star

"if not for Snout & About, I'm honestly not sure if we'd still be with our dog"

If it wasn't for Snout & About, I'm honestly not sure if we'd still be with our dog. We've seen other behaviourists before but absolutely none of them was able to listen and advise the way Snout & About did. Both Catherine and Paul have this amazing ability to make you feel seen and understood and even though you mostly work on yourself, not your dog, you never for a second feel judged or criticised. Professional, up to date with all things science and incredibly thoughtful and respectful. Honestly no words will describe this better than our anxious and reactive dog asking Paul for kisses and snuggles! We're extremely grateful for having you both lead us and help us build an amazing relationship with our doggo5 star

"our experience has always been beyond expectations"

Our experience with them has been way beyond any expectations. From real struggle to a happy life together based in understanding. Professional, respectful and science based services for both ends of the leash. Training, assesment and support based in honesty, empathy and real knowledge about what they do and backed up with research and experience.

"Catherine has encouraged positive experiences and supported choice for my dog"

Catherine is very knowledgeable, patient and supportive with both dogs and people! Snout and About provide active and consistent support which is centred all around your dogs overall well-being. Their methods line up with the most up to date research and practices that exist for healthy human emotional development! It's very clear to me that my 18mos old lurcher, Zoe who they worked with, will always be able to feel safe and trust. Catherine has encouraged positive experiences and supported choice for my Zoe. She is growing in her confidence with other dogs, despite a bite from an off lead dog. She's learning to regulate herself and disengage when it's too much. I would highly recommend Snout and About. All dogs are individual and Catherine weaves that priority seamlessly in with your real life set-up. 10/10. Thank you.
