Where do you start to describe Hayley as a trainer? Professional, knowledgeable, kind, caring and supportive starts to paint the picture. Hayley’s interpersonal skills, along with her extensive training knowledge makes Positive Paw4mance a great place to train. I find the club very supportive, right from the friendly, fun training environment to the amazing club support at competitions. Highly recommended for all levels of agility training

Positive Paw4mance …. it’s in the name!

Hayley is always positive, encouraging and extremely knowledgeable.
I handle 3 Agility dogs, all with a different idea of how to learn and Hayley has got us all to a competitive competition standard with her knowledge and never ending sense of humour. The groups are small, friendly and encouraging, and I can’t recommend this club enough.

I love training with Hayley! She has the ability to adapt her teaching from those who have qualified for the top level at Crufts or competing in Champ to those of us doing agility for fun and to build the relationship with our dogs.
She’s helped me with two Manchester Terriers who hadn’t trained for a while getting them back to competing and helping them to develop their skills.
Most recently after I’ve had some time out due to illness she’s been helping me with a youngster who missed out on a lot.
She is able to explain clearly and give helpful feedback to a variety of handlers and dogs so we are all able to improve.

I cannot thank Hayley enough for all her support – what an amazing club she’s created. Everyone is so welcoming and the training I receive on a weekly basis is so inspiring and supports all of my agility goals regardless of level.

Her ability to adapt and understand all of my dogs is impeccable and I’m very grateful to be a member of her club and receiving training from her .

I first reached out to Hayley when Evie was around six months old. We began by filling in occasional spaces when others couldn’t attend, before eventually securing a regular weekly slot. From the very first session, the group was incredibly welcoming and friendly, instantly putting me at ease.
Hayley has a wealth of experience, and her expertise has been invaluable in helping me progress with Evie while building the right foundations from the very beginning. Her teaching is clear, adaptable, and tailored to suit each individual dog and handler.

Her positive, reward-based approach makes training enjoyable for both dog and handler, creating a supportive and fun learning environment. We’re now preparing to start competing this summer—something I never imagined when we first began—and I truly couldn’t have achieved this without Hayley’s guidance and support.

I have been training with Hayley for just over a year. She makes it fun, while learning how to train your dog properly. You never feel silly for asking too many questions and even though you might get it wrong a few times, she still offers words of encouragement. I have seen a great improvement in my handling skills and my dogs confidence. I cannot recommend Hayley highly enough, whether you have already competed or a complete beginner you will love it.
