Customer's reviews

I would like to thank the trainers for their help and support. After just one session Cloe (rescue dog age 5) is walking with the figure of 8 lead it was such a pleasure taking her for her walk not to be dragged along. I can now take Cloe for walks safe for me and her. Thank you Kathy & Cloe I am adding more to my post as my first session was only an hour (Ste & James felt we needed to practice the first session) so my 2nd session was yesterday and it was equally as good as the first, not only is the practical side invaluable but the knowledge you get it great. We have been helped a great deal and would highly recommend. Thank you again to you both looking forward to mre videos on the members page. Just an added note being a member is very worthwhile especially life time. ~ Kathy D
We can’t recommend James at The Dog’s Way highly enough. From the start, he was patient, understanding, and genuinely committed to helping both our dog Milo and us as owners. Despite being experienced dog owners, we quickly realised that some of our well-intentioned habits were contributing to Milo’s reactivity. James coached us with empathy and clarity, never making us feel judged and always taking the time to explain the “why” behind each approach. His calm, no-pressure style and focus on building trust made all the difference—not just for Milo, but for our confidence as owners. There was no hard sell, just genuine support and tailored advice that delivered results. We couldn’t be happier with the progress Milo has made and are incredibly grateful for James’ guidance. Highly recommended. Thank you James! ~ sara l
I am so glad we found James. We rehomed our springer spaniel and was about at our wits end. She was so fearful of the world but also incredibly hyper and defensive at the same time. the more traditional training technics were too stressful for her, even asking her to sit to calm her stressed her out. James had an incredible insight into dog behaviour and the difference in our dog having met with James is enormous. He not only provided training in the sessions but was a real support in between not just with advice but reassurance to us too. We still have ways to go but now we can enjoy take her for walks and she is able to be a functioning part of the family. And the most wonderful thing is that we see that she is now enjoying life. Thank you James ☺️ ~ Laura K
