Kelford Dog Training

We have just welcomed home our wonderful little black lab who was searched for and had her basic level training completed by Kelly of Kelford Training. I was speechless when collecting her and seeing our pup’s initial interaction with my daughter (given her fear of dogs), it just says everything. From first meeting Kelly, and then through the whole search process and pup’s training, her service and attention to detail was second to none. Kelly’s knowledge of dog behaviour and the techniques s...

I would highly recommend Kelly and Kelford Kennels. Because of my complex family situation, I wanted the best of both worlds, a puppy and a trained dog. Kelly enabled this to happen through the Puppy Selection and Foundational Training Program. From the first point of contact Kelly showed a depth of knowledge that underpinned the selection of the correct breed of dog for my family. She quickly grasped our needs, being honest in weighing the pros and cons of the many suitable breeds and poten...

We had serious issues with our 2 year old Labrador that no other dog trainer/behaviourist could help us with. We were recommended to Kelford by a friend. Upon first contact we were immediately impressed by their understanding of dog behaviour and human psychology. The process was difficult at first as we had to unlearn many bad habits, but we are pleased to say that it works incredibly well. We would not choose a new dog going forward without consulting Kelford, and Lyndon in particular. Thou...

I’ve been working with Lyndon at Kelford for 3 years now. I have a Gordon Setter who first went to Kelford for his foundation training and since then we have worked with Lyndon on both his and my training. I find Lyndon to be knowledgeable, helpful, practical and a joy to work with (and hence we’ve been going back for 3 years). He’s always happy to connect outside our formal sessions if I’m having a challenge or need some advice/coaching. As a result I now have a dog who I can take anywhe...

I had been struggling with my two year old lab due to her having a bad start through injury. The tools and techniques we have come away with are invaluable and has made such a difference to the connection I now have with my dog. Lyndon was kind, helpful and so knowledgeable. I have never seen someone read and understand a dogs personality so well. Would highly recommend.
