We visited Max Canine a few days ago for a 1-2-1 assessment with Emily. Our dog is nearly 5 years of age and suffers from anxiety when first meeting other dogs and strangers. She was a ‘lockdown’ puppy and we did not get the opportunity to socialise her. We were very impressed with the way Emily understood our concerns and the excellent advice and tips we received which are already having a positive effect on our dog when going for walks. We now plan to participate in future group training sessions at Max Canine and would highly recommend Emily.
We approached Emily after a friend recommendation and we were not disappointed. As first time dog owners to a lovely staffy, we did need some guidance to start off at the right foot. If you have a puppy and just want to start things right before developing any/too many issues Emily's help is so valuable. We have had a 1:1 session and attended a lot of the socialisation groups last summer which helped so much. Everything we've learnt we have continuously put into practice and we now have a lovely 2 yr old happy dog that we can take anywhere with us, even a successful holiday to France walking the busy streets of Bordeaux with the most calm and happy boy. To add to that, the confidence you gave me with off lead walking was massive and we enjoy off lead walks daily and I have peace of mind with our dogs recall being brilliant. Thank you! 10000% recommend - worth the time, trust and money (very reasonably priced too). Definitely worth it and your dog will thank you❤️
After struggling with DIY/online training with our very fearful, Romanian rescue, Finlay, we saw Max Canine on Facebook and thought it was time to see a proper behaviourist and the reviews helped us to decide on Max Canine. Emily's set-up in Carrog was ideal for the one-to-one assessment session. The session was great. Emily is really friendly and clearly knows what she's doing with anxious dogs, and explained the psychology really well. We covered basic tweaks like how we hold the lead and control the pace on walks to help Finlay ignore his triggers. Finlay's biggest fear is bicycles on walks - but by the end of the session, Finlay was completely ignoring Emily's bike and just admiring the nearby sheep. We've got a long way to go with Finlay but from taking on Emily's advice, we're noticing improvements already after just two days. We're looking forward to working with Emily and her team going forward!
Highly recommend Emily and Max Canine. My 16 month old dog has responded so well to the advice given by Emily having completed a 1-2-1 session. Focused around what I want for my dog, recall and reduced reactivity, Emily has been able to give some brilliant training to build on. He has already shown such a brilliant improvement after one session which gave me the confidence to take him along to a group session which was great.
I cannot recommend Emily enough. Ori is a collie cross from Croatia. I had been told by multiple trainers he was never able to go off lead and his prey drive had been ‘activated’ and wouldn’t get better. I put him in residential training for around 9 days as his main issue was chasing sheep. ALWAYS chasing sheep. I was kept up to date sent pics and vids showing him to me and what was being taught etc so felt super at ease. Not only that day 2 she was sat with Ori in a field off lead surrounded by sheep. She explained his main focus being around our relationship and took time to show me and explain why and how things work. Absolutely amazing! and Ori is so much more settled as a dog. Listens more and I understand him more. Our walks are more relaxed and I’m no longer terrified of seeing a sheep or anything that moves on a walk. Recommend!!!!

Daisy has been coming to Canine Styles for about 6 months now. Zoe always does a fab job and she comes back smelling gorgeous. We opted for a Breed Standard trim this time and Zoe did not disappoint. Very professionally done and we are very happy. Wouldn’t go anywhere else. Thanks Zoe for being so kind and caring with Daisy from 13 weeks old to present.
Max has gone to this groomers a couple of times now and his last visit was so needed. His before and after pictures do not do justice. I thought he was getting a bit tubby. Turns out it was just rakes of hair. Max doesn’t like other dogs and can be quite nervous but he’s extremely comfortable being left here and comes homes looking fantastic. Highly recommended
I can't thank Zoe and Emily enough we have a 2 year old working cocker spaniel who was in need of a groom but unfortunately our dog is a little unsettled with people and other dogs, but these 2 people arranged a meet and greet for us just so our Bonnie would try and settle, and after a few of these sessions where they made a big fuss and lots of treats for Bonnie they finally managed to give our dog the most beautiful groom and she now looks stunning. It's nice to come across people who really adore animals and there job I would highly recommend.
Great with our ready bouncy puppy. They did a fabulous job and she looks great
It was first time for my dog. I was nervous but the staff was very welcoming and professional. Did a great job. We will be back for more.

Oakley, our one year old boxer, had become quite fearful of people and barking when any stranger approached. He then became quite poorly, which prevented us working on the fear and inevitably the behaviour became even more heightened. After reading advice galore online we felt even more confused... and so we got in touch with Anna. After our first consultation I felt like the missing pieces of knowledge were finally slotting into place and those two hours already had taken a weight off my shoulders! We had 5 further behaviour sessions which not only improved Oakley's confidence, but our confidence in carrying out his training going forwards. Even within those first few weeks Oakley's confidence increased noticeable amounts and the reactions becoming less and less. We have been continuing with the training techniques Anna showed us and Oakley is a different dog. His threshold distance has reduced massively and he is much happier! He is still wary of people who talk directly to him or attempt to give him a fuss, but with the techniques and knowledge we have learnt, I have every confidence we will get there! Thank you so much Anna!
Having been pulled around by Connie, our 18month old Cocker Spaniel, we contacted Anna for help with loose lead training. Her calm approach worked wonders, with noticeable improvement after the first lesson. Now, after two further sessions Connie, my husband and I are enjoying our walks with a happy little dog at our side.
Me and Oatly worked with Anna for 12 sessions and it has been so rewarding as an owner to build a relationship with my puppy that makes him very happy. Anna was able to advise and support my circumstances and help establish routines that work for me and my Oat. I feel confident that I have the foundations needed to create a positive environment for Oatly to grow and develop as he transitions into adulthood.
Great place to train your dog. I've had both one to one and group sessions and have found them very fun and effective
I came to Anna at Forests and Fetch with my lab mix puppy who was showing signs of anxiety around people and other dogs. I had already been to puppy classes with another trainer but had found them unsuccessful as my puppy would bolt for the door at any given opportunity which I was told was her being a teenager. Anna helped me realise that this was anxious behaviour and that by helping her manage her anxieties first her training would be much easier. After just 3 months I have a much more confident puppy who is already picking up her training quickly at home and is now ready to return to a class setting! I would reccomend Anna to anyone who's puppy is showing signs of anxiety to help nip any challenging behaviour in the bud!

Great service. Nothing is too much trouble. Having 2 elderly cats, both with health issues their welfare is my first priority. Ralf takes care of my cats when I go away and Sabine always texts with updates. Meaning I can fully relax as I know they are being cared for.
I've known Sabine for quite a few years now and she's always very thorough and does her best for the animals she cares for.
Fabulous service looking after our 2 old horses. Makes you feel so relaxed that they are in safe hands- and sent us regular pictures too! Wouldn’t use anyone else if I want to know they are safe. Sabine is so knowledgable and a great advisor.
Sabine is a passionate animal care and training professional. Her puppy classes are of a high standard and provide puppies with a fabulous start to life. She is kind and caring and all animals in her care experience lots of love and attention. Highly recommend.
Professional service, high level of care, and most importantly very reliable.

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!
