Just had my first session with Roman (Alliance K9). I had a sense of some of the things I needed to address, but had my eyes opened to a few I weren't aware of. Great initial assessment, very knowledgeable and immediately had more engagement from my dogs than I have for a while. Looking forward to my sessions with him. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to get more from their dog.

We bought 2 puppies 6 weeks ago and have been doing to Alliance from the get go. The change in our dogs is incredible! Non stop compliments and disbelief from friend and family about how good our 2 13 week old puppies are, and this is just from a few sessions! Highly recommend Roman, he's incredible at what he does and his understanding of dogs is next level.

I recently had my initial assessment with my 6-month-old Belgian Malinois x Staffy cross, and the experience exceeded my expectations. Roman provided clear, structured guidance on establishing boundaries and leadership, which was invaluable for me as a first-time dog owner. The session gave me a much better understanding of how a dog’s mind works and how easily unwanted habits can develop if not addressed correctly.I was particularly impressed with how Roman tailored the training plan to fit seamlessly into my daily routine, ensuring it was both realistic and sustainable. His direct and honest feedback was also refreshing, as it highlighted exactly where improvements were needed without any ambiguity. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the service provided and feel much more confident moving forward with my dog’s training journey.

Arrange an assessment and go see for yourself. However, as far as my own opinion goes, Alliance K9 ticks all the boxes and was everything I have been looking for in an experienced dog trainer. Roman is clearly very knowledgable and passionate about canine welfare and growth. More than that, he respectfully challenged and motivated me in a way whereby success wasn’t limited to my dog, but allowed me to progress as a more confident handler. I came away with a thorough understanding of my dog’s needs, as Roman was able to condense years of expertise in clear and succinct manner to help me meet the canine/human expectations. Plus, unlike other trainers he didn’t charge the earth to do so. His transparency and trustworthiness was actually refreshing. If that wasn’t enough, even got to see his young child working his own demo dog. The coolest thing I’ve seen in a while. Top bloke.

We had 5 one to one sessions with Roman for our 1 year old Golden Retriever to help with her engagement and reactivity. He was clear, direct and extremely knowledgable and explained everything to us as well which was great because it educated us and made everything make sense. He guided us well during the sessions and gave us homework to do in between each one. We have seen a big difference in Mabel’s behaviour whilst out on walks and we will continue to put things into practice. We are looking forward to going on some group sessions with Roman in the future! Thank you.

Invaluable service! David is very knowledgeable and puts you at ease. None of this sign up for x amount of sessions- to the point and gives you the tools needed. Definitely recommend. We have a dachshund who is very nervous and reactive but even after one session we feel confident that we're able to take what we've been given and have a happier dog!

We collected Skye after a residential stay, we watched Skye’s progress through the videos sent to us, both David and Gemma worked so hard with her and the difference that they have made is amazing. Skye is a well mannered girl no jumping up, she no longer paces around the house, but most of all she is able to run around off lead, we had never dared to do this, but she constantly looks for us and returns when called. David you are a game changer for us and thank you for letting Skye enter your family, she misses you all. A huge thank you brilliant trainer

Can't recommend David enough. What a fantastic dog trainer and a nice guy. I've just picked my dog up from a residential training week with predator K9 accadamy and he has worked wonders. I received lots of updates, photo's and videos of the training and progress he was doing and also ones with her enjoying cuddles with his lovely family. This put my mind at rest as I knew she was being very well looked after and in very safe hands. David has given me so much guidance for me to take with me going forward. He's a very knowledgeable dog trainer and understands k9 behaviour on a different level. He explains things in a very straightforward relaxed way Could not be any happier, thank you so much David and all your family for the hard work and cuddles you've all put in ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Well worth the money. Clear and informative about how dogs behave and the issues that we humans bring when trying to get the dog to behave. His demonstration and instruction on getting my dog, Gibson, to walk at heel and ignore other dogs whilst on the lead was simple and very effective. In fact, within less than 2 minutes of him demonstrating with Gibson, I had a completely different dog. No tricks. No gimmicks. At the time of writing this review, it's only been a week since my lesson. I have done everything that I was told, and even though I may not be perfect, there's a massive difference in Gibson's behaviour. He is completely under control. His recall was OK, but even this has significantly improved. Still some work to do but a big difference. 1hr, and you will have a different dog.

We have learnt so much from our puppy classes. The training has been brilliant and our puppy has really enjoyed it. We now have the skills to go forward. I highly recommend to anyone out there who has a puppy. Thank you to the lovely trainers.

Neil was an excellent help with our grumpy dachshund. A 3hr session has resulted in massive improvement within weeks of implementation. I couldn't recommend Best Behaviour K9 enough!

Well worth every penny! Laura was fantastic training us and our dog Bonnie!! Bonnie reacted badly when on a lead, to other dogs on leads by barking. People thought she was aggressive. After 4 sessions with Laura and lots of homework it is now a pleasure walking Bonnie. Would recommend to anyone!

Leonie Jane ★★★★★

I can’t recommend these enough! We have Laura as our trainer who has seen our rescue pup all the way through puppy and deputy classes. Couldn’t have chosen anyone better!! Io has some behavioural issues due to his past and this school and trainers have been a blessing when giving us continuous help and advice through classes, Facebook group, WhatsApp and more. I can’t rave about them enough. If you manage to get Laura as your trainer too she’s honestly a god send. We will definitely be continuing our training with them🙏🏻

Hi Sarah. Another update on Zara for you because I am so happy with her progress since coming to see you. She’s back to her bouncy trotting self walking ahead of me, instead of the plodder walking behind me that she was. And she’s even happy to do an early evening walk which she hasn’t done for a long, long time. I’ll definitely be keeping up with the exercises you gave me for her having seen the difference they’ve made. We always find some fallen trees or park benches to do the paws up on when out walking. I feel like I’ve got my old dog back. Thank you xx

We were reccommended Sarah by several people when our Labrador started suffering with her spine & back legs. Lotties pain had caused her to suffer with severe anxiety, she hated going to the vets but she loved going to see Sarah. She made Lottie and us feel at ease straight away. Her hands on treatment & exercise plan that we implemented at home made a huge difference to Lottie’s final months. We are certain we would not of had as long with her had we not seen Sarah. Lottie always seemed so much more settled after her sessions. The support & advice that Sarah gave us was invaluable she helped us navigate an extremely difficult time. Our only regret is that we didn’t find her sooner. I can’t recommend Sarah highly enough you won’t regret going to see her.

I wish that I could give more than 5 stars! Sarah has helped my dog, struggling with grade 1 luxating patella, so much! He is now walking normally without pain and is so much happier as a result (as am I!) no operation needed! Colby really enjoyed his sessions and Sarah is incredibly caring, gentle and knowledgeable. I would heartily reccomend her!

Sarah has been treating my elderly Lurcher, Chester, for neuropathic and arthritic pain for almost and year now and has made huge difference to his well-being. Her knowledge and understanding are absolutely excellent. Chester isn’t keen on being handled or having his joints manipulated but he is always calm and settled with Sarah - often to the point that he nods off for a bit! Her advice and honesty throughout has meant we have been able to maintain a very good level of mobility for him. Previously it was rapidly declining after some poor recommendations from a previous vet and veterinary nurse. She has been kind enough to liaise with our new vet and this means we’ve been able to modify his treatment plans throughout in terms of physio and pain relief. I can’t recommend her highly enough!

My beautiful floofy pals have been going to Sarah and Isobel for a while now and they have been amazing. My two dogs are rescues and quite fearful and everything has been done at their pace to the point that Sky who has been going for a while following cruciate surgery and hip dysplasia is a chilled out model patient. Her pain is so well controlled that she can still enjoy digging and playing in the woods . Nothing is ever too much trouble even when we leave a mountain of floofy hair. I cannot recommend physio and in particular this team enough if you need support with your animals pain and mobility ❤️🐶🐶

I highly recommend employing Kate as a dog trainer. She is fantastic with dogs and is amazing at breaking things down really clearly to handlers/owners. I have learnt a lot from Kate's approaches to dog training, as she has such a methodical and effective way of working.

I have just completed an online course with Kate after rescuing my dog from Street Hearts Bulgaria, for whom Kate is the patron. Knowledgeable and patient, Kate gave us simple, clear guidance, providing us the building blocks of training for a happy relationship together. We covered creating a strong bond, recall, and other useful commands as well as some fun tricks along the way. I highly recommend training with Kate and Landela Dogs!

Chris Bronsdon ★★★★★

We can highly recommend Thuli as a personalised dog trainer. We have a rescue Labrador / cross breed who has had some serious behaviour problems - most notably aggressive sounding "reactive" barking, mainly at other dogs. Thuli took time to listen to the difficulties we were having with our dog, even before we met. This was by an initial free telephone call. This gave us confidence Thuli understood the issues and would be able to help us. Another advantage is that she has a lot of experience working with rescue dogs. She has given us a number of really helpful strategies that have already made a significant difference to the behaviour of our dog (and us, her owners!).

Tracey Thorpe ★★★★★

Can't thank Kate enough for the help with my 2 year old rescue Bonnie. So far we are working on building confidence and her checking in with me, loose lead walking. Kate explains everything clearly and with patience. Would highly recommend.
