We had a one to one session with Kerry today re our10mth old adolescent dog I had prepared a number of things that we needed help with.Kerry spent time addressing these reassuring us on some things andre directing on others She was friendly and approachable but also totally professional. She had such a breadth of knowledge and explained things really easily The session was relaxed and we really enjoyed it as well as learning so much Her follow up notes from this visit came almost immediately backing up what we had discussed They were comprehensive and informative I would highly recommend kerry for support in training you to train your dog!
Another class completed with Kerry, the improvers class was really enjoyable and fun for all of us, we look forward to using our new skills out on our walks. Thank you kerry
We attended Kerry's training with both our pups and had a home visit. Kerry is so kind, understanding and professional and has so much knowledge to share. Her classes were fab and went by in a flash. Nothing was too much trouble and we got some really good quick wins to see us through with our pups. Thank you to Kerry and Team.
Prompt reply and easy to arrange a one off visit with new puppy to help reassure and helpful suggestions with crate, play, toileting, biting distractions. She was very calm in her approach with my teenager which was brilliant in helping with bonding with puppy. We will be joining the puppy training classes next month when puppy is old enough. Kerry sent through lots of follow up information which is already helpful as reminders. The train your puppy classes have been an absolute joy and a steep learning curve for both puppy and human but each class had something different to learn and practice at home. So proud of my puppy to reach graduation!
I was recommended Kerry's puppy class by so many people, and it didn't disappoint. Eric our whippet really enjoyed it, and it helped us get started with early training. Looking forward to teenage class soon. Thanks again Kerry x

Excellent trainers! I can't recommend enough! 🐾🐾
I have a 9mth old Cockerlier poo puppy, but I have been having real problems to stop her pulling. So i rang Alpha b dog training for some help, my call was returned straight away and Sam surgested Keightley who is one of the training. Team Keightley is being a wonderful help to me and Meg my puppy, she cares so much and has a great love of dogs, and so easy to talk to. I already see improvement in Meg, and I would recommend Keightley to anyone who needs help with there dog. Jane Brookes. 17.8.2025.
Brilliant lead trainer. Explained absolutely everything effectively and clearly. Followed the session up with a written explanation of the whole session. Received videos of the trainer and her personal dog for me to keep in my mind what to do with my own. I am booking more sessions with the lead trainer on a 1 2 1 basis for me and my dog. I would reccomend the service to anyone looking for dog training. I have seen improvements in my own dog after one session and with me being given the tolls to work with on my own with my dog.
I have been working with Alpha B for about 8 months, and the training the team provides really is 5⭐! Our teenage G. Shep x G. Retriever struggled with significant barrier frustration and was incredibly reactive. Sam and Abbi have transformed our lives through training by instilling confidence in our handling, sharing a wealth of knowledge & expertise, and most importantly listening and caring for our pup as much as we do. We can now explore the world without complete fear of an outburst! We've attended midweek group sessions and appropriate playgroups held by Sam & Abbi, or Abbi herself. All of which have been amazing!!!! The training is all judgement free, so welcoming and friendly, and very understanding. Dusty loves going to 'school', and we do too 😁🐶🖤
We have been using Alpha B since we got our Doberman puppy, knowing that they have trained Dobermans before and being local to us they seemed like the perfect choice and how right we were! Bruce does say train sessions with Samantha a few times per month and also puppy classes every other week and the difference in his behavior is night and day after he has spent time with her and in the sessions. The team is very helpful in all aspects of training and more than happy to answer your questions any time or any day of the week, we couldn't have asked for a better group of trainers!

Brilliant trainer seen results with my Belgian Malinois after first session 100% recommend Liam
Came here with my 16 month old dog to be trained, the owner was polite, well mannered and listened. Helped my Danny with behaviour/ anger issues and now a new Dog! Highly recommend
I take my 12 week old Belgian Malinois pup Clay, to Liam at LGK9 and the progress both Clay and I are making is amazing. As well as it being great fun Clay is growing into a well rounded dog. Liam provides a professional and friendly, results driven service. I highly recommend LGK9 to any dog owner who wants a well balanced and obedient dog.
I had a great experience here, Liam made an amazing first impression and showed a lot of knowledge. We managed to figure out a plan going forward that me and Amira are happy with. Very accommodating and willing to find a solution. Looking forward to getting started!
I take my dog here twice a week, to a one to one session and the group obedience on a Sunday. When I attended the first one to one session I thought I was doing ok with my but boy I was wrong! Liam has taught me how to train any dog in the future not just the one I've brought to the sessions, after 4 weeks it was like walking a different dog! We have moved into protection training now and he's coming on leaps and bounds! The Sunday classes are excellent for any dogs who are nervous or excited around other dogs, the sessions bring out the best in dogs and they learn to socialise very quickly! And it's only £10 per dog! Iwould highly recommend anyone who is having any sort of trouble with their dog in regards to training to book in with Liam! When I get another dog in the future I won't be taking it anywhere else but LGK9!

We started doing Barn Hunt at Dog Confidence last year and we are hooked! Vickie and the instructors she works with her are brilliant. It's such a great venue too. Everything is always well organised both on the day and in advance. Everyone is super friendly and it's always fun to be around like-minded people. Gentle, compassionate and positive approaches to our dogs only. Through Vickie, we have also found out about Wizz and have started doing scentwork too. Vickie uses the hashtag #domorewithyourdog and we are really embracing that. Harington loves doing anything that involves sniffing and is most certainly living his best life. I always say the barn is 'the Barn of Joy' as he can't wait to get in it. Really glad to have found Dog Confidence - it is the highlight of my social life!
Dog Confidence has completely transformed the way I connect with my dog. The workshops are not only fun and informative, but they’re thoughtfully designed with every dog’s best interests at heart. What really sets them apart is their ability to tap into each dog’s natural instincts and abilities—encouraging them to problem-solve, explore, and truly engage. It’s incredible to watch our dogs light up with curiosity and determination as they sniff out clues, find hidden items, and tackle challenges—again and again, with real joy. The activities offer solid mental and physical stimulation while being gentle enough for dogs of all ages and fitness levels. Vicki and the team are an absolute gem—knowledgeable, approachable, and incredibly supportive. Their guidance extends beyond the dogs, helping us as owners understand our canine companions better and build a more rewarding relationship. Each session feels like a genuine partnership between dog, owner, and trainer. It’s a brilliant experience from start to finish.
Vickie & Dog confidence has helped me bring on my young sensitive lab to be a confident happy boy. By using gentle fun exercises Vickie has helped him thrive and given me techniques to use everyday. Through dog confidence we have been introduced to a variety of disciplines including APDT good companionship awards, Hoopers, barn hunts, trailing and scentwork.
Training with Dog Confidence does exactly that. Vickie's style and approach to training promotes confidence in handlers and dogs alike. Her attention to individual needs is really thoughtful and respectful and we always feel in very safe and knowledgeable hands. Most of all, we all always have fun and enjoy our time training with Dog Confidence ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I found Vickie 2 years ago when I was struggling with my 1 year old incredibly scent driven spaniel. I have enjoyed working through the dog confidence level. At Vickie’s there are also additional training courses: barn hunt, farm walks, hoopers, trick workshops and scent training. Some of them are delivered by other trainers that are making use of the facilities. There is a brilliant outdoor fully enclosed field and indoor barns for when it’s too wet or hot. There are facilities for the humans too with a nice tea room with plenty of treats available and toileting facilities. I have thoroughly enjoyed the lessons at Vickie’s and have recommended the benefits to many other dog walkers. I have learnt so much myself about different aspects of dog training and finding something that both you and your dog love. As a vet myself I now extol the benefits of continued training for all dogs. Plus, after an hours training Darcy is knackered.

Just completed 6 training classes with our 6mth cockapoo. Very impressed with Jayde, our pup loves the classes and has surpassed our expectations with what she’s learnt. Already booked our next classes, highly recommend.
Jayde is very knowledgeable about training dogs and has been a huge help with our border collie puppy when she started lunging at cars! I would recommend her puppy and teenage dog classes, she makes them fun for the puppies and owners alike!
Fantastic experience with Jayde. Super sessions, fun, focused and We have seen such positive results. I cannot recommend Jayde enough, and we love the added extra of the social gatherings.
Jayde has been brilliant with our puppy Caper. Extremely knowledgeable and professional, she really cares about dogs and has massively helped our dog training experience. Oh, and she has the best dog sausages in Britain 🙂
I’ve had a few sessions with Jayde and my miniature dachshund and she is a fabulous dog trainer! Her knowledge is amazing, she can answer pretty much anything when it comes to dogs behaviour and advise. She has really helped me with a few issues I’ve had with my dog and has taught me how to avoid the issues. Jayde is extremely professional but such a lovely, approachable lady :) 10/10 would recommend to anyone. We will be continuing our training journey with Jayde and hopefully start more classes in the future!
