Zoe is an amazing teacher and trainer. We have a collie who was too focused on a ball, constantly…read morenervous in different places, not a fan of people or dogs coming up to her while she was on lead, and just hated anything different. But soon as we got in contact with Zoe she asked us what we wanted to get out of our sessions and recommended 1-2-1s and within about 2 sessions we started to notice a difference but after the 6 and the perseverance in between those sessions. It was like we had a totally different dog she had so much more confidence loves other dogs, still loves a ball but actually focuses on us. She is truly an amazing teacher/trainer and I'd recommend her to anyone. Any help you need she's literally a text away and always responds.

We started…read morewith some behaviour 1:1 (or Crisis Management Obedience as they call it!) to stop our dog chasing cyclists and joggers, then went onto some dog:dog aggression work when he got overexcited at other dogs doing agility! I'm pleased to say we have a reformed pooch who can sit calmly through an entire set of dogs running agility, and he's pretty good at it himself! Julian and Lorraine own a couple of fields by their country house and work there as well as at Stover Road in Yate. They have a nice new hut for obedience and clicker training, and the fields are permanently decked out for agility - with floodlights for winter lessons. Agility is £5 per group session (you will get about 5 runs in each hour long lesson) or £15 for an individual lesson. You can hire out the field as well if you just want to practice alone but it is hard to see what you are doing wrong so a lesson is advised! Their behaviour sessions are £35. Julian and Lorraine have taken agility dogs to Crufts before, and Anna who uses the field to teach us is currently a Crufts regular with her dogs so you know you are in good hands. There are a few levels of classes, so if you just want to start out as a bit of fun then find a space on a beginners group and see where it takes you.

These guys have utterly transformed our experience of puppy parenting!…read more We've really enjoyed going along to their very productive, well-located and successful classes and have learned an enormous amount from the thorough and patient education they provide dogs and owners alike - not to mention the socialisation opportunities (again, for both dogs and owners!). Walking on and off lead, waiting, staying, recall and so on are now at a really high level as a result of ProPups training. Their day-care and residential services are absolutely first class, too, and our little schnoodle simply adores Tamara and Lisa. We were extremely nervous puppy parents, but seeing how much fun he has, and what good care they take of him - all with genuine affection - has transformed the whole experience for us. So grateful for all their assistance, and really cannot recommend them highly enough. T

Working on a reward basis rather than using any form of punishment, Bensons Dog Psychologists work…read morewith owners to deal with canine behavioural problems. They don't offer general training, but instead deal with specific problems such as chewing and other destructive behaviour, messing in the house, aggression, and so on. They visit you at home first to observe the dog in its own environment, and assess it. First they try to determine the cause of the behaviour and what triggers it, and then armed with this information they can work out ways of correcting the problem. If you're thinking of getting a dog, Bensons also offer personalised consultations on what type of dog would best suit you and your lifestyle. This is the kind of information you can research yourself, particularly if you have access to the internet - but if you don't, or you want an expert opinion, Bensons can provide that.
