We have a 5 year old Samoyed named Meeko who has always been a challenge on walks. He’s reactive — every time he sees another dog, he immediately pulls hard on the lead and starts barking. No matter what I tried, it felt impossible to manage. Walks became stressful and discouraging, and I reached a point where I genuinely dreaded taking him out. I felt completely defeated.

That’s when I reached out to Calem at K9 Kuriousity and I can honestly say it was the best decision I’ve ever made for Meeko and myself.

Calem came to us for a consultation and by the end of that very first session, Meeko was walking calmly by my side. No pulling, no lunging. I was in shock. This is a 30kg dog who used to drag me down the street with all his strength and suddenly I was in control. I couldn’t believe the transformation.

Since that day, we’ve walked Meeko every single day following the techniques Calem showed us, and the difference is unbelievable. Meeko has improved 110 percent, and for the first time in years, I’m actually enjoying our walks again. I no longer feel anxious or scared that I’ll be dragged over. I feel confident, and Meeko seems so much calmer and happier too.

What really sets Calem apart is his personalised approach. At first, he recommended three sessions, but after the initial consult, he told us that if we stick to the guidelines, he felt confident we could handle the training ourselves. That kind of honesty showed me that Calem truly cares about the dogs and their owners. He’s not just in it for the money but genuinely wants the best outcome for everyone he works with.

If you’re struggling with your dog, don’t wait. Reach out to Calem. He gave us our peace back and I’m so incredibly grateful.
