“Alex was amazing, identified the problem straight away and this has made a huge difference to our rescue doggy who kept being nervous towards other dogs.
Definitely recommend him! He was really kind and patient, took his time and taught us really useful tips to keep applying every day.”

How it works for London owners

City dogs face a lot: busy pavements, traffic, crowds, other dogs at close range and little space to give them. That's exactly what residential training prepares your dog for. Your dog stays with us and trains every day to Alex's plan, first at our secure, fully enclosed field near Chelmsford, then in busy real-world places such as town centres, shops, parks and around traffic, so the results hold up on your own streets.

  • Around three weeks for most dogs; four for puppies and behaviour problems such as reactivity, aggression or anxiety.
  • Regular updates throughout the stay.
  • A handover on collection day, so you know exactly how to keep it going at home.

Collection from London

If you'd rather not do the drive, we collect your dog from your London home, or from any London airport: Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Luton or London City. Dogs travel in secure crates in our vehicle. The cost of collection depends on where you are and is quoted when you enquire. Many London owners prefer to drive out for drop-off and the handover, so they can see the field and meet Alex.
