A huge thank you to Laura Marrs for her guidance over the last few weeks. Myself, Linda, and Triss were all struggling to get on the same page, but Laura helped us navigate that relationship with so much patience. It was great to see her methods (which you can read about on her website) put into practice so successfully. She was always on time, incredibly reliable, and felt like a part of the team from day one. We are so grateful for her help!

Most importantly we enjoyed Laura's sessions and now have a wealth of activities to guide us. Her positive approach using games has increased my confidence as a first time dog guardian. Laura's session summary, instruction videos, and handouts are so useful to ensure we can practice fully afterwards. She was also great understanding and adapting to our needs (many!) to ensure we could work towards success. All much appreciated. Thank you so much Laura.

We started training with Laura as our dog, Ernie, could not settle with visitors, was nervous around other dogs and to improve loose lead walking. 4 weeks in, we followed Laura's excellent advice and Ernie settled throughout a visit. We walked past a work van when dogs jumped at the window and barked - we immediately went into taught and rehearsed strategies and Bingo we walked straight past the van still on a loose lead! Brilliant! Love the videos and follow ups so we can make sure we understand what we are doing and reasons why. All of us so much more relaxed and enjoying each other. Fantastic support from the start.

Being mentored by Laura Mars has honestly been life-changing. Their support, encouragement and kindness has helped me grow so much in confidence, both as a trainer and as a person. They always create a safe space where you feel heard and valued, and their guidance has made such a difference to my journey. I’m so grateful for everything they’ve poured into me, it’s had a lasting impact that I’ll always carry with me.

Laura Mars is an exceptional mentor! She helped me during my time trying to pass the DTC Certified Dog Trainers course and continues to support me through The Dog Trainers Haven.Her level of knowledge of understanding dogs, as well as humans is amazing.She is always supportive, dedicated, professional, uplifting, caring and very encouraging. She has a brilliant technique of making you think and work things out for yourself. You never feel judged just supported.Can’t recommend Laura enough as a mentor or a dog trainer and would like to thank her for all the help so far !

Well, what can I say about Laura Mars? 🤔I was fortunate enough to be mentored by Laura during my studies towards my dog training certification, and I now continue to benefit from her guidance and positivity through her Trainers’ Haven as well.Laura is just fantastic. There’s simply no other way to put it. Even a full essay wouldn’t do her justice.Not only is Laura’s knowledge of dogs incredibly vast, but her ability to gently encourage you to question and evaluate your own ideas and choices is second to none. I’ve always felt safe in discussions with her, confident that I’ll never be judged, and I always come away from our conversations feeling uplifted.Her gentle, guiding approach to mentorship is invaluable, and I’m so grateful to have benefitted from her wisdom.(It also helps that she frequently tells me I’m funny 🤭)Thank you, Laura 🩵

Laura is absolutely fab and a great mentor to me. I first met her when I was a student at the DTC, she was one of our mentors on the course and I really warmed to her straight away. Since qualifying as a dog trainer Laura is my 1:1 mentor and I really appreciate how she makes me stop and think and really supports me with my learning to develope and progress as a better dog trainer. I can't recommend her enough.
