The K9 Way

We have a very loving and intelligent puppy Bernese boy, however, he had a very cautious and anxious nature, and suffered from some separation anxiety issues. We had tried a few other trainers before Mark at K9 way and we just didn’t feel they understood his nature enough and underestimated his abilities, so we didn’t see much improvement. Straight away Mark recognised the traits that other trainers just didn’t seem to get and we saw improvement in puppy from week 1!! After the block 121 cour...

When we got our puppy in June, we decided to go to some training classes, and when a friend recommended The K9 Way to us we spoke to them and decided on the 121 puppy pack.

When we got another, unfortunately with restrictions in place we couldn’t access training but John was still extremely helpful and there for us throughout. If you are unsure, you just need to speak to John or Mark and you will see the passion, skills and knowledge they have.

Dora is my first dog and she's a rescue. Although she was extremely sweet right from the start, she pulled on the lead, was reactive out walking and had no recall. I noticed a huge difference in her right from the first group session. A few simple changes and she was a different dog. The group sessions have been brilliant fun and are great value for money. Each week I see such improvements in her. We're both growing in confidence and having such a good time. The support from the other group m...
