“I have tried different trainers and training methods but I wasn't getting anywhere with my dog, by chance I have found Essex Dog Trainer...and I am so glad I did!
Within the first session I was given all the tools and support to train my dog to not only wall better on a leash but how to deal with the dog being too excited when meeting new people and dogs....
Already booking another session... cannot recommend enough!”

“I took my highly reactive young Shepherd cross to Alex for a 2-hour session and suffice to say, the guy is absolutely brilliant. Quite simply, he just gets dog psychology; he immediately understood my dog and her behaviour, and to watch her transform at his command was mesmerising. …”

“I took my highly reactive young Shepherd cross to Alex for a 2-hour session and suffice to say, the guy is absolutely brilliant. Quite simply, he just gets dog psychology; he immediately understood my dog and her behaviour, and to watch her transform at his command was mesmerising. I’ve left with knowledge, confidence and a greater awareness of my dog and what she needs from me. Highly recommend.”

What Newfoundlands are like to train

Newfoundlands are water rescue and fishing dogs from the Canadian coast, and they are gentle, patient, sweet-natured giants with a famous fondness for children and water. Newfies are sociable with people and other dogs, rarely aggressive and inclined to lie across doorways. Their size is the training issue, not their temperament.

Pulling, jumping up and a stubborn refusal to move are the requests owners bring, with drooling and swimming in every puddle as bonus features. Newfoundlands are sensitive and respond to calm, reward-based training rather than pressure. Puppy training from 8 weeks, while the dog is still liftable, is the priority, and in-home 1-2-1 sessions address household manners for an adult.

Every price is on the prices page.
