Effective training for dogs of all breeds and ages

If your ‘trainer’ advises a slip lead. Please walk away

A dogs pov
I wish you could feel what I feel when that grot lead/adjuster lead tightens.
The way my throat closes so fast it steals the air right out of me.
The way my heart jumps into panic before I even realize I made a mistake.

I don’t think you understand how hard I’m trying.
How every step I take, I’m guessing, begging, that it’s the right one.
Because if it’s not, I know exactly what’s coming.
That sudden, crushing pressure that turns the world into a tunnel
and makes me wonder, just for a moment,
if this is the time I won’t catch my breath again.

And while I’m fighting that fear,
you’re smiling.
You’re proud.
You think this means I’m finally learning.

But I’m not learning.
I’m surviving you.
I’m surviving the thing you call training
and I call losing myself a little more each time.

I wish you could see past your pride and your massive ego, and notice the way my body shakes before we walk, how I hesitate not because I’m stubborn, but because I’m scared —
scared of you, scared of the lead,
scared of what loving you is costing me.

I want to be your good dog.
I want to understand.
I want to breathe.
I just wish those things didn’t feel like choices
I have to make between each other.”

Please stop with this torture

Modern puppy training by a professional trainer includes so many things. Play, confidence building, socialisation, being confident alone, to name only a mere few of the things we train.
This, however, is done with knowledge only qualified professionals understand.

We need to think about the kind of games being chosen. throwing a ball is not only basic when it comes to play techniques. It’s also irresponsible for dogs, especially a puppy, to be chasing twisting and turning at speed. The damage to your dog is not worth the risk.
How to socialise your dog. Without using scary flooding techniques.

Quality dog training includes professional advice and care for your dogs well being and safety.

If you’d like to learn more about our fabulous puppy training then get in touch.

We look at the whole dog. Body and mind

If you would like to teach your dog to settle or tuck at a restaurant or cafe then please do contact us.

First we teach the dog to be calm and to know what ‘settle’ or ‘tuck’ actually means. Sometimes through shaping or capturing the behaviour.
We make sure the dogs in an environment where he can learn. NOT go straight to the restaurant to force his bottom into a sit and jerk his lead every time he gets up.
We then ‘proof’ our training in different environments with different distractions. Each time making sure we are checking the dogs emotional well-being and body language to ensure he is happy with the environment.
THIS is how you get a dog to perform this cue. A relaxed assistance dog here. One of our many videos of how effective our training is.

I dont understand it when “balanced trainers” brag about getting a dog to heel while it’s basically negotiating its breathing rights.

They’re like:
“See? No pulling!”
Okay, Dick… if you had a rope around your neck, you wouldn’t pull either. That’s not training — that’s gravity plus poor life choices.

And the pride?? The VOLUME of the pride.
You didn’t unlock a training secret.
You just discovered that discomfort makes living beings compliant.
Congrats on reinventing the medieval era.

Balanced trainers always talk about “respect.”
Meanwhile the dog is respecting absolutely nothing except the risk of passing out.

Imagine being so fragile that you need a dog on restricted airflow to feel powerful. Couldn’t be me. Couldn’t be anyone with a functioning personality, honestly.

But hey — if your biggest achievement is “dog walking nicely while mildly terrified,” go off, king. Wear that little victory like a crown. 👑
Just don’t confuse it with actual skill.

A recent U.S. class action (Hernandez v. Radio Systems Corporation) has resulted in compensation for consumers after claims that e-collars were misrepresented in sales and marketing as “safe” and “humane.” The complaint also outlined that such devices can cause both physical injury and psychological harm to dogs. Details are in the link below.

At the UK Dog Behaviour & Training Charter, we uphold a strict no-shock collar and non-aversive policy. Training should build trust, promote wellbeing, and respect the dog’s experience, not rely on pain, fear, or coercion.

If you’re looking for humane, ethical training support that puts the emotional wellbeing of your pet first, you can find qualified professionals through our Charter member organisations and their members, who are all committed to kind, science-led methods.

Let’s keep bringing out the best in dogs through kindness, clarity, and care.
