"shanae's done the absolute opposite and helped him flourish"
Shanae has shown nothing but love and compassion for our Hank, and kindness and understanding towards us as rescue dog owners. Hank is a dog that needs help to learn boundaries but does not take well to compulsion or aggressive punishment techniques - Shanae's done the absolute opposite and helped him flourish through positive experiences. He is such a different dog to what he was 4 months ago when we were sadly faced with the possibility of putting him to sleep. Shanae has understood Hank and his needs more than we ever expected and helped us to see he is just scared of the world. Shanae saved Hank and were so grateful for her support in helping him become a wonderful family pet. We can’t recommended Shanae more highly.🐾

"Tactical Paws are a real home"
Shanae & the Tactical Paws team are utterly brilliant in every way! Our Vizsla Zeus has been out training, for regular day care services and the occasional boarding with the team for over 3 years and we've had such a positive experience; Zeus (who is very excitable and energetic!) has learnt some really good traits, and can't wait to get out with the team each week for his walks - Tactical Paws are a real home from home for Zeus.
We get regular updates and videos from each session, and on top of this, Shanae and team run a really slick business. Totally reliable, and have helped us out with Zeus at short notice more than once. I couldn't recommend the team and their services enough, they're a genuine pleasure to work with!

"THE IN PERSON SHADOW DAYS ARE FANTASTIC"
I've just completed Shanae's private mentorship and I CANNOT RECOMMEND IT ENOUGH. Shanae is so incredibly knowledgeable and experienced, but also genuinely passionate and a truly lovely human.
The mentorship is comprehensive, covering behaviour, reactivity, health, breed needs, raising puppies, and the business side of things. The in person shadow days are fantastic - getting hands on with different breeds, personalities and stages in their training is so important and observing how Shanae teaches clients was amazing. The highlight for me was getting to observe Shanae handle her lovely dog Nyx during a chiropractor appointment. A very delicate, intense situation, getting to watch her apply her Canine Touch techniques with her own dog was nothing short of incredible.
If you're wanting to get into dog training or enhance your existing skills, I highly recommend you mentor with Shanae. No matter what your approach is, you will learn so much from her that you can add to your training toolbox, and you'll have an absolutely fantastic time doing so.
