The Age Article: Dog Day Afternoons, Kath Dolan    July 13th 2007


"Bosley was a very naughty (bored) pup until I discovered Jog the Dog. I did not have the time or energy to give him the exercise he required. He is a large Golden Retriever and just walking him on the lead was not enough exercise. Over the last 12 months, he has been going on outings with Lisa, and not only receives the necessary exercise, but also good training including socialisation with other dogs.

He loves going to the park with Lisa and his 'playmates', and waits eagerly for her by the gate! This is the highlight of Bosley's day and he is now a much better behaved dog, and I am a much less stressed owner! Lisa is very confident, competent and reliable and I would recommend anyone to try Jog the Dog."

"What the Super Nanny is to difficult kids - Lisa Masters is to dogs! When Buddy joined our family as a giant 10-week old black lab, we all loved him instantly. He grew and grew and then grew some more until soon he became stronger and heavier than his playmates, our children!

"Our family walks were more like kite-flying exercises, with us dragging along in Buddy's wake until Lisa helped stop him in his tracks! Just like the Super Nanny, Lisa's lessons taught us and Buddy at the same time. Lisa provided us with simple new rules. It's worked brilliantly, and we've easily maintained the simple commands which have proven to be an effective form of communication between us all.

"As Lisa continued his on-lead training, she also added off-lead training and socialising, which has opened up a whole new world of walks for us all! The kids can walk him, he can swim and prance along the beach, and now we have the confidence that he'll actually come back - even if he follows another dog! Lisa stopped Buddy's clothesline destruction with simple techniques, the slobbering on visitors (well, most times) and made the first 12-months with our big, bustling boy so much easier than we could ever have imagined."

"18-months ago, when I needed someone to walk my active Staffordshire Bull Terrier, three points were most important to me: Safety, Reliability and Firm, Caring Control. Lisa Masters and her assistants satisfied these needs and more! Ralph always arrives home from his 'outings' very happy and I feel that he is cared for as if he were her own. She always graciously fits in any extra walks or feeds that I need done at short notice, and I enthusiastically recommend her services to anyone who really loves their pet!"
