Lynne came highly recommended to me by a lady who recognised severe anxiety in both our dogs around two months ago. Lynne sent us a copy of the DVD she works with and we had a few days to put the principles into practice before Lynne came to see us and helped us tailor our behaviour to suit our dogs and specific environment. I am absolutely thrilled to say the results have been nothing short of spectacular and I have real difficulty now remembering just how bad it was; Brian (who we rehomed) would not look at my husband, go near him or interact with him in any way from the time we brought him home for no (apparent) reason, which was extremely distressing for us, not to mention being quite hurtful to our human pride!

We are now interacting well with both dogs, they (mostly!) understand that we are in charge and spend their time snoring, playing and running around like puppies. All outward signs of nervous behaviour (barking, digging, circling and avoiding) have now gone and they are a joy to be around.

To see exactly what I mean, take a look at them here:

Description: This is how our dogs are behaving after approximately 2 months working with Lynne. Previously to this Brian (the larger dog) would not go near Tony (the human) and wouldn't even
look at him.

Thanks, Lynne, very much!

Hi Luke, just wanted to send you a quick note to thank you so much for not only your time but the results I have experienced with PJ. He is not only so much calmer but has responded to the new "easy" techniques you have shown me in days. It sounds corny but PJ is still PJ, but he is so much happier and laid back. Friends have said they can not believe how better behaved he is when they come around... but he has not lost any of his personality... thank you so much, I know 100% that it is due to the techniques you have shown me that we are doing at home that has resulted in this, I am calmer because I know he is happy and our home is truly a better place, thanks to you....

Thanks to Fun4Paws

Thanks for the urgent, professional and the most caring assistance that Lynne of Fun4Paws gave to me and my parents in a desperate time of need. My parents were victims in the recent Black Saturday Bushfires in Victoria. They fled for their lives and escaped with the clothes they were wearing and their most beloved possession of all - their dog. One morning shortly after these fires my parents decided they could not give their dog the care and home she would be happy with anymore – they had lost everything in the fires and even their physical strength. Contact was made with Fun4Paws and Lynne arranged for the dog to be housed in foster care that same evening. From this first foster care house which I knew was temporary she then went to another foster care home with children, and has now been adopted by them. My parents are so relieved that their beloved dog is in a loving home, and I am just so grateful to Lynne and her staff for their caring and compassionate assistance during this very sad time.

Lynne you have made all the difference here to help my parents move forward in rebuilding their lives, and to know their beloved dog is very happy with her new family.

Dear Lynne and the team at fun4paws,

I am writing on behalf of our dogs to say how wonderful you have all been. It has been truly amazing.
We had 7 kelpies, all working dogs. We lost one on the day of the fire and one had to be put down as her burns were too serious.:( The others have burns ranging from just a few burns on their paws to poor Roxy who has burns to about 70% of her back.
They spent a good few weeks at the Yea vet having their wounds dressed and being well looked after. When they came home they were very, very pleased to have beds, and temporary kennels thanks to you guys. They are even more stoked to have brand new kennels that arrived a few weeks later

The coats are going to be just the best thing for Roxy, she wont be able to go a day without wearing a coat due to the extent of her injuries. We were wondering where would get one, when we stumbled across your generous offer.

Sophie, is our old dog, she is about 8 and she was lucky enough to score a coat too. She thinks she is pretty special in her fleece lined jacket!

The help you have provided to us and our dogs has been wonderful. I am not sure what we would have done without your generosity.

Thanks again to all that helped out,

Kindest Regards, Glenn & Ange on behalf of Roxy, Sophie, Diesel, Hodge and Sally.

Two happy Westies!!
