Animal Sense - Perth's Behaviour Veterinarian 11 Marsh Close, O'Connor, Western Australia 6163

"We have been seeing Dr Nicole since 2019 and I couldn't recommend anyone more knowledgeable, caring and kind. She has helped our now 6 y.o. dachshund with behavioural, physical and emotional issues relating to noise sensitivity, reactivity, pain and anxiety. As an owner, I always feel comfortable knowing that the advice she provides us is fear-free based combined with positive reinforcement training tactics. She supports us as owners to learn to read our boy and his emotions better while equipping us with the knowledge to assist him better. We have Dr Nicole to thank for the incredible improvement our boy has made over the years."

"Dr Nicole is an excellent, knowledgeable & caring veterinary behaviourist. She has helped me, not only with prescribing medication but also with advice & support in the management of my people reactive dog, Astro."

"Dr Nicole was such a great help! She gave us the tools to help our anxious girl be more confident in the world again. We now understand our dog so much more than we used to, and can work with her to make sure she’s comfortable when in new environments, situations and around new people."

"Hi Dr Nicole, Just checking in with Baloos progress for our 2 week follow-up. We honestly have a completely different dog on our hands, it's wild. He has responded really well with the medications, especially since we moved last week. We have a new routine which even allows us to let him free sleep in the front section of the house which is just a sitting room, his crate and our bedroom - so far so good and his sleep has drastically improved. He now sleeps through the nights...and sometimes the morning alarms. Now everything has settled down a bit, we are going to start walking him around the new suburb, letting him explore, and trying to work on his attention, connection and willingness to take treats. We also freely get cuddles throughout the day, and nights, which besides him not being stressed, or in pain, is my favourite part about his changes. We had our initial consultation with our trainer and it went well, he was VERY interested in her and wanted to get up high to investigate but we were able to get work out of him for some training and eventually he chose the cow hide chew over her...as long as she didnt move lol. Our trainer determined that we have a bit of work to do with him before getting him to the rehab vets, particularly with his husbandry handling so she doesnt think we would have made it to the appointment before seeing you next, she is due back again within the next 2 weeks for a follow-up. Thanks so much for all your assistance so far with Baloo. Regards, Erin & Michael"

"Dr Nicole does an amazing job at getting to the root cause of your dogs behaviour issues and implementing plans to resolve them. She takes the time to listen to you as a caregiver, asks relevant and in depth questions, and explains her findings and recommendations in an easy to understand way. We have been under her care for approx 18 months and have seen a huge improvement in the original issues. It is obvious that Dr Nicole has extensive experience and knowledge, and her skills are invaluable in helping manage those dogs who struggle with daily life. Very happy to have been able to work with her, and would recommend to anyone struggling with behavioral issues."
