Life changing I can honestly say Nathan and his team are amazing and have changed our lives We have a young male husky (Leo) who always pulled on the lead never really listened when outside, never did we think Leo would walk so lovely next to us, listen to our commands and even be of lead. Nathan and his team have helped train Leo and us, the outcome has been incredible Leo is walking so well and in the early stages of being of lead LIFE CHANGING. Introducing Leo to groups walks to help with distractions whilst walking has been another great help. There experience and knowledge is amazing and has helped us with lots of different questions we have had and continue to have. Thank you so much to such a great team of experts.

I went to meet Nathan and Clara for a free 1 hour assessment session with my female 16 month old Vizsla and I can quite honestly say this one session has been the best training Ivy has ever had. I took her for dog reactivity on lead (lunging, growling and hyper focused on distant and passing dogs). I wanted Nathan to take a look and explain where I'm going wrong because Ivy learned lead reactivity with me since I rescued her at 6 months old and I wanted to know how to manage and stop it from continuing. If I'm completely honest, I wanted to do the assessment so I got some advice and then I thought once I knew how to manage her then I wouldn't need any more sessions because I thought I could take it from there. BUTTTTT because Nathan and Clara were sooooo in-tuned with Ivy I would not want to give up the opportunity for me to work with them in future sessions because what they teach is invaluable and I will 1000% be returning (session already booked in) and hopefully get Ivy into the group dog walks in future. (Nathan and Clara made me feel like they are very well experienced and will most likely be able to read your dog like a book in minutes no matter what situation you bring the dog to meet them in). I can't tell you how impressed I am and they have outshone every other dog trainer I have worked with, both positive trainers and balanced dog trainers. I'm so pleased I went and I just wish I had worked with Holistic Hounds sooner because Ivy's potential to be the well trained dog I have been trying to train her to be is in sight now knowing I have the right people to work with me with her.

Our experience with Holistic Hounds has been absolutely amazing Started with a (free!) 1 hour assessment with Nathan who gave us some tips and helped to explain her behaviours. Our Lizzie is a rescue from Cyprus who had not lived in a home before, had no experience with walking on leash and due to living in a shelter, she went overboard at every dog she saw as all she wanted to do was play! Since the end of January we have been working with Clara who has literally changed our lives! We now enjoy stress-free walking with more confidence in our own abilities. We still have a way to go with Lizzie, but Clara has taught us all the things we need to do and work on with Lizzie, and can't wait to show HH our progress down the line! Clara has brilliant experience with rescue dogs and could relate to a lot of our issues and we felt very understood and listened to and never judged, can't thank her enough! Would recommend Holistic Hounds to anyone thinking about training for their dogs, well worth the money!

We contacted Holistic Hounds to help us with our Romanian Rescue who was afraid of people and new places. After our free assessment session with Nathan I came away so relieved to know that we had found a training team who could help us work through these issues. We signed up to the 10wk package and every part of this has given us amazing results. Meg has grown in confidence and our bond with her has improved immensely. Our friends and family have all commented on the positive change, and we now have the confidence and tools to be able to continue to build on the work done with Holistic Hounds. We will continue to join the group walks as these have been hugely beneficial and provides a great opportunity to check in with the team. We want to thank everyone at Holistic Hounds for providing a 5* service and personalised approach to our training journey. Karen, Lee and Meg
