We had a 5 week block with Stephen for our 5 month old cocker spaniel puppy. Stephen was fantastic, he asked us what we wanted to work on in the first week and we built up over the weeks. Stephen clearly has a way with dogs, our puppy just loves getting his training visit every week. He has a great way of explaining things and would adapt as we went to the specific needs of our puppy. We will definitely be booking another block and can highly recommend his services!

Steven worked with our puppy between 12 and 17 weeks. He was really great at explaining the ultimate goal for certain behaviours but then setting realistic expectations for a puppy at this age. The importance of keeping training fun and engaging was emphasised. There was a good balance between learning the essentials that Steven advised, while also allowing us to request help with certain topics or situations. We feel well equipped to continue our puppy’s training!

If I could give more stars I would ! I can’t recommend Steven enough as a dog trainer and feel very lucky to have met him. I have a nervous rescue puppy and the challenges we faced have felt overwhelming at times but thanks to regular & interesting 1-2-1 sessions as well as group classes, my Ollie is making such amazing progress. He loves his time with Steven and it’s fantastic to see Ollie quickly learn from the training, and tips I’ve been given. It’s also been a learning curve for me too but Steven has kept me right by being so knowledgeable, incredibly patient and understanding, answering my many questions. A big thank you to the Training lead !!

Stephen has been part of my anxious \nervous pup’s journey literally from day one , when he came out to help with Yoshi’s very first fear ~ the stairs. Since then, we have attended both group classes with him and Lanette, as well as one-on-one sessions to build Yoshi’s confidence and practice obedience. The one-on-one sessions have been extremely helpful for understanding your dog's behavior. Thanks to Stephen’s knowledge, patience, and easy-to-understand guidance, Yoshi has improved tremendously and is much more comfortable in the world! While training is always ongoing, Stephen has given me the tools to manage my dog and has been wonderful to Yoshi. He’s not only an exceptional trainer for dogs but also a trainer for owners. I highly recommend Stephen for any issues, from obedience to behavioral problems like a dog with an anxious disposition. Working with him and Lanette has been a pleasure! If you need help with your dog, look no further. Stephen will go above and beyond and your dog will absolutely love him! Yoshi and I thank you so much!

Stephen was recommended to us and we contacted him to help with our very over excited Samoyed. Stephen worked with us to help us understand Thor better, and how to help calm him down in the house and around other dogs. Using the methods taught to us, we are able to enjoy walks with Thor and have noticed a huge improvement in his overall behaviour. We have a very happy and content adolescent pup and can't thank Stephen enough 🐻❄️
