Joe was very friendly and professional and had both my dogs eating out of the palm of his hand. In 3 hours they weren’t barking at other dogs, jumping out of the boot of car or pulling on lead plus a few other things. If you’re thinking of hiring a trainer you can’t get any better. My dogs are like different dogs they are so well behaved

Joe came to help with our dog Rosie who has been very dominant and had a few behaviour issues. Within an hour he had her eating out of the palm of his hand and walking her will now be a breeze. It can be hard to do right by your dog as sometimes it seems harsh but just being firm is all we have needed (tough love). Couldn’t recommend more thanks Joe.

Joe was amazing from the moment he stepped through the door. In a single session he taught us how to create an environment for our dogs that enable them to be calm which in turn allowed us both to relax more. We just adopted a rescue who was so anxious and nervous that we both struggled with the stress of trying to keep her calm and in turn this was unsettling our 4 year old sproodle. As I write this we have two sleeping dogs snuggled up in their beds and they no longer dominate the 4 seater sofa. The advice and knowledge Joe has is second to none and all of his advice made sense. The main thing we got from the session was Joe teaching us, not Joe teaching the dogs. He instilled in us the skills we need to be more confident and responsible dog owners. Thanks again Joe, you are excellent at what you do!

From the moment Joe arrived, there was a shift in the atmosphere. Our dachshund Bram must have known that change was coming because he lost his mind at Joe. Never seen barking like it, even jumping at him to try and get up. Joe flexed his knees, and Bram fell silent. My wife, Rachel, and I love Bram. He's sweet and loves our company; we love him being in our lives. The only problem is the rest of the world was becoming an issue for him. Car drives past the window, bark bark bark, someone appears on the TV, bark bark bark, I enter the house via the front door after being away for a grand total of two minutes, bark bark bark. You get the idea. It was taking a toll on both of us. When my wife was out, it left Bram and me; he was so needy and always wanted to play. It was slowly dragging me down. My wife reached out to Joe. She was sceptical, but Bram was a good boy. He was perfect when we got him, so well behaved, but in a short space of time, we had ruined him by treating him like a human. Within an hour, Joe had him staying in his bed without a lead. He even had us throwing ham down in front of him, and Bram didn't budge. Before, the ham would not have even touched the ground. Joe even had us take Bram for a walk, which Rachel and I both dreaded because it was 10% walk, 90% barking at a shadow or a leaf that fell funny. Bram walked without stopping to sniff, let alone bark. My wife and I were amazed. Joe also answered many of our questions and gave good guidance regarding how to act in the future. It was never Bram's fault; it was ours because we were inconsistent and lacked confidence. Joe showed us what to do. He was fantastic and friendly and gave us the confidence to turn a good boy into the greatest boy. He is worth every penny. I cannot recommend him enough.
