Fantastic agility session today as always. Sarah is a star at keeping Leia calm and focused on training over obstacles. Highly recommend from puppy class to agility and 1 2 1's. Can't wait for next week 🙌
I have attended Sarah's agility class for just over 2 years. We were complete beginners at the start and I was a bit nervous as to whether it would suit us. But with Sarah's lovely manner and her kind and gentle approach we knew we'd come to the right place. She is endlessly patient and positive and always puts the dog's welfare first. My dog absolutely loved the classes and enjoyed the stimulation of learning new things. Sadly, due to a health issue, we can no longer continue but I can't recommend Sarah highly enough and hope her business continues to thrive.
Excellent training with Sarah, we are more than happy with our experience at puppy class. Sarah is great to work with making the training fun for both you and your puppy. Mabel has come on leaps and bounds since the start of training and we are looking forward to more courses. Would thoroughly recommend 💯
Sarah worked with myself and Murphy in the Puppy group lessons sharing her extensive knowledge in a fun and inspiring way. Murphy came on leaps and bounds in such a short time. We will definitely return for the youth club sessions! 100% recommendation from me!

I love my training sessions with Becky who is a knowledgeable, calm presence and able to communicate with patience. My dog Winter respects her and is happy and vibrant when they work together. My confidence with handling Winter has grown immensely since we began training with Becky. Thank you for giving me the skills to ensure that Winter has a great life.
Becki has helped me so much with my new puppy learning so much, helping with our relationship and supporting me in my confidence in handling my dog. I couldn’t recommend her enough! Very supportive and has a lot of knowledge, I’ve grown up with dogs but my first time having my own puppy and she has helped me so much! Couldn’t recommend her more ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We have been lucky enough to be supported by Becci for the last 4 years. Super organised, reliable & knowledgable about both pet & working breeds. Highly recommend & its great to have someone genuinely trustworthy when needed.
Becci looks after my May if I go away. May is a very excitable working cocker, she is very happy in the family home environment and gets lots of exercise. I feel very confident and comfortable leaving May with Becci
Becci has a VERY high knowledge and understanding of dog care, breeding, training and behaviours and has helped me with my female lhasa apso over the years who is now very well trained and I have knowledge and understanding to manage her new learnt behavioirs too. To breed puppies that become Police dogs too shows the quality service Becci provides. I haven't been disappointed and would highly recommend her for anything dog related! 🙂

Brilliant. Great experience with chaz, helping us immensely with Jack and the difference in Jack our reactive lurcher is incredible. Can’t recommend highly enough
I can't recommend Chaz and Man's Best Friend Rescue and Training Association highly enough. We adopted our Labrador, David, as a rescue and quickly realized we needed professional help. David was uncontrollable on walks, pulling and lunging, and had some concerning behavioral issues at home. Chaz immediately understood our challenges. He tailored a training program specifically for David, focusing on lead work, manners, impulse control, and building David's confidence. The results have been incredible. We can now enjoy walks with David, and he's so much calmer and happier at home. What sets Chaz apart is his patience, understanding, and genuine love for dogs. He not only trained David but also educated us on how to be better dog parent’s. He's a true expert in dog behavior and training, especially when it comes to rescue dogs. If you're struggling with a rescue dog or just need help with training, don't hesitate to contact Man's Best Friend Rescue and Training Association. Chaz will change your life and your dog's life for the better. We're so grateful for everything he's done for us and David.
Fantastic results for our two boxers :-)

I would 100% recommend Tasha of Mutts & Mischief Holistic Dog Education and Behaviour Services to any dog guardian/prospective dog guardian looking to give their companion the best care, using only "Do No Harm" philosophies and positive training methods. They've been helping support me with adopting my Ukrainian rescue dog Prada since before I brought her home on 10th January. They are really inclusive, understanding, supportive and very generous with their time between sessions if you're struggling, providing lots of help over email. If you're neurodivergent/disabled/gender diverse or anything that might make you feel anxious about seeking somebody understanding, Tasha is your person!
In just a few sessions, changed my relationship with my dog and with dog training overall, in such a good way. Tasha is compassionate, incredibly knowledgeable, and patient. Having the support and accountability has given me the courage to continue to work with a dog that at one point I wasn’t sure I would be able to keep, as she was so reactive, dog selective, anxious and wound up. Thank you ❤️🙏 now I can have a respectful, gentle relationship with my dog that fits so much more in line with my values as a parent and human. Not only that, the cost is very reasonable, and training comes with a whole community. Can’t recommend them enough!!!
Tasha is one of the most knowledgeable and skilled trainers/behaviourists I have ever come across. Not only are they passionate about what they do, but they care as deeply about your dog/s as you do. Tasha uses science based, force free methods and is constantly updating their CPD. Which means they are always my go to person for absolutely everything! The first thing that drew me to Tasha was how understanding, empathetic and trustworthy they are. These characteristics are incredibly important to me as I feel more at ease with someone that is non judgemental but is also incredibly skilled. 100 out of 10!
Fantastic training I did one of the online courses for 10 weeks with my dog and could do it in the comfort of my own home and mange distractions for my dog. Highly recommend
I had my first training session with Tasha and Natalie recently, inspiring and encouraging is an understatement! As a wheelchair user finding a trainer who understood the unique challenges a wheelchair presents in my training suddenly felt like all the pieces had fallen into place, like I wasn’t on my own trying to adapt able bodied training set ups to fit(or not fit) anymore. Tasha’s knowledge and expertise is second to none. If you’re looking for a trainer to help you find an out of the box solution to a problem or to help adapt to training with limitations I can’t recommend them enough. I’m now looking forward to dog training again.
