Jim is the only person who has managed to be accepted by our rescue dog in the last 3 years. We contacted Jim to help us with our Romanian Stray (who has a long list of challenging behaviours and complex needs, including a bite history). Jim's knowledgeable, calm and holistic approach to working with Boo (and us) has been transformative. It has been a pleasure to work with him, and he has left us with a tangible, practical and most importantly, actionable path forward. We can't recommend him highly enough.

Giving Jim (CBT dog behaviour and training) 10 out of 10 across the board. Great communication with the dog and the humans😄 He definitely knows how dogs tick and has wonderful insight into easy changes that improve problem behaviour and make everyone happier and more fulfilled - most importantly the dog. His no force attitude is so impressive and not only works but cements the bond between pet and owner. Tig was a mostly overstimulated rascal who didn’t know how to self settle- with a side habit of sleeve grabbing and nipping. Happy to say we’ve been able to introduce all Jim’s ideas to good effect and we are all calmer and happier as a result. We are working on recall now and it is a joy to see how much she is liking it- never mind us! I can recommend Jim to anyone who would like to understand their dog’s motivations and improve communication… it’s that simple… somehow we are now all getting what we want and need out of the situation and peace reigns in our home Tig is a better dog and we are better owners 😄 Call this guy- he’s nice to work with too!

We were having problems with Benji resource guarding (stolen items) and contacted Jim for assistance. Jim has a great way with dogs and Benji just loved him. We were given advice and techniques to try and Benji's behaviour has improved and continues to do so. Would be happy to recommend Jim to anyone experiencing difficulty with their dog's behaviour.

I cannot recommend Jim Gillies enough. I contacted Jim about my Yorkshire terrier Milly, Several behavioural issues, reactive , resource guarding, pulling on the lead, bullying our older dog. I didn’t have much hope for milly in the beginning as she’s extremely fearful of noise, people and dogs, milly was not socialised as a puppy this created our problems. We can feel guilty to a point however contacting Jim has brought so much enjoyment to milly & ourselves seeing the incredible changes. Jim is incredibly knowledgeable, Milly took to Jim straight away which was unusual for us as she would not do this with anyone else. Jim set a plan out, with patience and perseverance Milly loves meeting new people, learnt to interact more on her walks. Friendly towards some dogs learning her way in this world and that’s ok. Gets into her own bed at night with rules in place. Looks for approval. Loves visitors. Milly has recently been able to walk on her daily routine meeting new pals and not attacking them. Jim introduced us to the long training lead, this has been life changing for us & millys confidence. Trust Jim trust the process the results are phenomenal. Jim was highly recommended to me by my Vets. Thankyou Jim :)

Jim has provided us with exceptionally useful help in managing some issues with our Airedale Terrier puppy, Wallace. From the minute we met with Jim he gave us great confidence that he could help us - his rewards-based training has made a great difference to us and our dog. Walks are now a pleasure, incessant barking is gone, and Wallace's recall is improving all the time. Jim is extremely patient and his instructions very clear, so we were in doubt as to what we should be doing. He also provided very helpful tips on useful enrichment activities, and his online training videos are excellent. I can recommend Jim wholeheartedly for anyone seeking help with dog training or behaviour.
