TESTIMONIAL
Claire is a fantastic, knowledgeable professional. Her communication and support is unmatched and we are already very impressed and pleased by the progress our anxious dog has made in a matter of weeks.
la has come on leaps and bounds and is much calmer and settled in a variety of situations. Clare has been fantastic and I would recommend her to anyone who needs help with their dog."
We knew from the minute we met Clare we had made the right choice, she has supported us with Riley every step of the way. 5 stars just aren't enough for the lovely Clare!
Claire has excellent experience with training dogs… a couple of sessions really made a difference with my puppy, would definitely recommend.
We definitely give Clare 5 stars! For us we feel she has really gone above and beyond with our Woody. Without Clare we would have been out of our depth. She is extremely accessible, her communication is excellent!
We have been working with Clare with our 2nd puppy now and she has once again gone above and beyond with support and guidance. We had a bringing your puppy home session and a short one to one before joining the 6 week puppy school which was amazing.
We highly recommend training with Clare. Her classes are enjoyable for both dogs and owners and it is a really relaxed, comfortable environment for everyone to learn in. Our Golden Retriever Elsie has benefited so much from attending, and she absolutely adores Clare!

EXCELLENT Based on 72 reviews Paula Marshall2025-03-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Despite having dogs in the past, our newest furry family member had left us completely stumped as to how to train and manage his behaviour, making it really difficult to walk him but also interact with other people. We opted for some 1-1 sessions with Clare and they are the best thing we could have done. We now know how to manage Barney's behaviour but also our own approach to the more difficult situations that occur. He is a pleasure to walk now and he has come on leaps and bounds thanks to the training! debra bassnett2025-03-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Clare helped us work with our reactive foster dog. She is a great communicator and consistently goes that 'extra mile' to support you and your dog.

Claire taught him and us well. Also Claire has given us a selection of games that Rusty enjoys. Thank you Claire for all your help.

Clare was excellent in all aspects - initial consultation, delivering lessons and training in a super friendly and approachable manner, comms, and flexibility. Given us the confidence to teach our dog much more and provided many materials for further training - in particular the videos are a great resource. Chloe2025-01-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a fantastic experience with Clare, she was so supportive in helping us settle in our new puppy. Clare’s advice and training techniques made a huge difference and gave us the confidence to handle what was quite a stressful time. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great dog trainer! Becky Smith2025-01-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m so glad we chose Clare to work with to train our boisterous Airedale terrier! We spent a long time searching for the right positive reinforcement trainer and can highly recommend Clare. She’s worked with us since before we brought Herbie home and we have worked with her in both classes and 121s when needed since. Herbie has responded really well to training and adores Clare and she has been an amazing support for us and him. She really goes the extra mile and cares so much about all her clients Glowybychloe2025-01-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We are so happy with Claire, she has help us with our dog Freddie lots, we’ve learnt lots of new things we never knew. Cannot recommend enough 😊 Leonie Shephard2025-01-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Clare is the best in the business! Her knowledge is unmatched, and her care and attention to detail during every session is incredible. Every one of our sessions have been so enjoyable and packed with information. She has taken my dog from being completely untrained and therefore never daring to let him off-lead, to a confident, lovable and obedient dog who now spends a lot of time off-lead, has fantastic recall, and is just a complete joy to do life with! ☺️ I can’t thank Clare enough for the transformation in him over the last few months! 🙏 SAM CHURCHILL2024-12-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Would highly recommend Claire if you are looking for a trainer who is professional, extremely knowledgeable, has a sense of humour and makes training sessions both helpful and fun! Can't thank you enough for helping both myself and my dog understand each other better! Mick Hogben2024-11-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We took our pup, Alfie, to the classes here and they were brilliant. Small groups meant lot of focus on what was being taught, lots of support and the end of each session some playtime between the pups who were grouped up according to play styles. Absolutely recommended and we have signed up Alfie for the next age group.
