Blimey I'm not sure where we would be if it was not for the help of the Celestine crew. 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.

I would recommend that anyone who has a puppy, a rescue dog or and canine with a problem invests in some time with Simon. Be prepared to listen and practice - his approach is logical, sensitive and based on a real understanding of doggy minds, never patronising and most important it works. We have experienced other trainers and techniques with previous dogs without much success - the Calm K9 way really works - our dogs walk well and the youngster's recall is excellent, we are happy and so are they.

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
