Rehabilitation and Training

We met with Steve on Saturday as our Cockapoo Meg had started to become snappy towards other dogs when they try to sniff her. Steve was excellent at explaining what the triggers were and how we should respond. Steve was extremely knowledgeable about dog behaviour and how they socialise. Steve put us at ease and left us feeling much more confident going forward. Meg is much more relaxed now and we can enjoy our walks again. Thanks Steve you are a star !

After an initial in depth chat on the phone Steve came and spent 3 hours with us. From the start Steve did a great job of explaining the theory behind his techniques and then we got into practical help. A couple of days since his visit and the dogs are generally much calmer, walk great on lead and have a better recall and understanding of the Leave command. Really cannot recommend Steve highly enough!

Steve visited us and our two dogs Billy & Pixie to help sort out a couple of issues that have arisen. Steve is so very knowledgeable about dogs and their behaviour and took the time to explain what we needed to do to improve the situation. He was very patient with us and answered our questions clearly and in simple terms so that we understood and now have the tools to put into practice what he has suggested to us. Steve is very professional, approachable and doesnt make you feel that any questions you ask him are silly questions. He gives you the guidance needed to take charge and knowing that he is at the end of the phone for advice is a great confidence builder Cant recommend Steve enough, just wish we had contacted him sooner.

Steve is the guy I wish Id found 6 months ago when we first got our Collie cross rescue Lucy, weve been struggling with her from day one as she is extremely excited whilst out. She barks, lunges & pulls heavily on a lead and has given us countless stressful days of not knowing what to do.. Today we met at Colchester and spent an hour or so with Steve, who is a wealth of knowledge, to help us understand Lucys needs and mostly to train ourselves in what we should be doing to help her. I saw some real positives in just a short time and now Steve has given us the direction we need Im excited to begin Lucys new training regime.. If youre struggling with your dogs behaviour dont hesitate Steve is highly recommend

Steve visited my dog Monty and I for the day in February. Monty is a 3 year old JRT x Chihuahua, hes always been very anxious around new people and acts aggressive towards them. Its something Ive struggled to train out of him by myself using many different methods. During the day Monty responded very positively to Steves training techniques, which was really encouraging to see. He is clearly very knowledgable and taught me a lot. Especially in understanding the way dogs think. Steve has given me the confidence to know the training techniques will work if I keep persevering with them. Montys behaviour has already improved a lot since Steves visit. Ive been able to introduce him to more of my friends and also seen big changes in his general behaviour. I would highly recommend Steve.
