Top 5 Dog Trainers in Hillingdon

We had our first session with Matt today and it was amazing! Our 11 month old Gatsby really took to the training straight away, and we were left with so many practical lessons that we can put into action at home. What stood out most was how clear and approachable Matt’s teaching style is, he made sure we understood not just what to do, but why it works, which gave us a lot of confidence moving forward. Gatsby was completely engaged throughout the session, and it was definitely so rewarding to see him respond so positively in such a short amount of time. It’s obvious Matt has a real passion for dogs and a depth of knowledge to match. We came away feeling more equipped and hopeful that, with consistency, gatsby will grow into a very well-mannered good boy. We’d wholeheartedly recommend Moosh K9 to anyone looking for supportive, effective training. The level of care Matt shows, towards both dogs and their owners, is something truly rare and special.

Just had a first session with Moosh k9 dog training and it was amazing, would highly recommend, I have a very nervous dog was scared to go outside and of other dogs and from one session it has helped me to understand where I was gping wrong with my dog and just by changing a few things my dog is now more confident and comfortable outside with only one session! Thank you very much, it just shows how much we need to educate ourselves and be more aware of what your dog needs.

Matt has done wonders with our dog. The time he spent with us and our dog. The collar which he used on our dog it worked wonders.. 💯% recommend.. Thank you Matt..

I recently contacted Matt as I was at the edge and we had an initial discussion about our dog’s challenges which was helpful in its own right. I decided that if just talking to him was helpful then it would be well worth having a session with him to try and help with our 2.5 yr old English Bulldog who was sound reactive, dog reactive and also people reactive (to strangers). We booked in for a session and Matt came to the house and spent about 4 hours going through how to we can set the best foundations to have a well balanced and trained dog but also how we can work to address his particular challenges. He was extremely knowledgeable about dogs and gave practical advice. Whilst he was here I could see first hand how our dog responded to him which was great. Two weeks later and putting his advice into practice and we are already in a better place with our dog. He’s not perfect but we are seeing progress. If you are looking for a no nonsense trainer who will tell you it like it is and knows his stuff then give Matt at Moosh K9 Academy a call.

Matt spent 5 hours at our house working with our lab, worked on the areas we felt needed attention and also identified more points we needed to work on. He was attentive, consistent and highly knowledgeable throughout and left is with resources and everything we needed to continue for ourselves. We saw immediate results on the day and have high hopes for the future. Can't recommend highly enough, great trainer and a lovely guy.

Pat is absolute fantastic dog trainer.

I’ve seen such a big improvement with my 1-year-old dog, Teddy, since starting training! He came with lots of behavioral issues, but now he’s so much more obedient and way happier. His reactiveness is almost gone, and he loves the sessions. The trainer is always happy to answer questions and help with any issues. Highly recommend.

Great experience Pat is great Trainer very Helpful and experienced and very knowledgeable and patient I would highly recommend

Absolutely wicked! Well explained step by step, very organised and pat (Nfa kennels) knows exactly what he’s talking about! Just one session has changed my pup and can’t wait to learn more. Highly recommended to those who have pets dogs or have highly working dogs.

I would recommend the puppy foundation training session to anyone without hesitation.Pat also helped me understand the puppy’s mind and motivations a lot better so I can pay closer attention to what I am actually teaching him.

Nigel’s bespoke approach totally transformed the way we understand our dog and the easy to follow techniques have led to our dog being much calmer, more content and less anxious. Nigel is clearly an expert at what he does and gave us the tools and language to resolve the issues we were having and we saw almost instant results. Over the weeks the improvements continued and Nigel was there to support us through this process. I would highly recommend Nigel, he was brilliant and the positive impact on our dog has been game changing!

Meeting with Nigel was amazing! He assessed our young puppy and helped us understand the causes of certain undesirable behaviors and how we should address them. His approach is very intelligent, not just one rule for everything, and he considers the nuances of specific situations as well as our puppy’s individual needs. He’s definitely given us the confidence to train our puppy appropriately, and we’ve already seen incredible improvements in our puppy’s behavior! We’re really excited to continue speaking with Nigel, as he’s genuinely knowledgeable, kind, and patient. We’re over the moon that we enlisted him for help, and highly, highly recommend him and his training approach!

Nigel was everything his reviews lived up to and more. We have a 10 week old puppy and wanted to make sure we were making the right decisions and not setting ourselves up for failure further down the line. We’d read all the books, listened to all the podcasts and watched all the YouTube videos. But real life has a funny way of not going the same way, doesn’t it? So we decided to get in touch with Nigel. His approach just immediately felt right. He was professional and nonjudgmental. He knew straight away the things we needed to work on. As he explained his process and guided us through his methods, everything clicked into place. And from that moment on we’ve felt like much better dog owners because of it. Our puppy is calmer, more confident and happier. And honestly it’s all because we are now calmer, more confident and happier. Nigel might have come to teach the puppy. But really he taught us. He is definitely the dog trainer you’re looking for.

When I contacted Nigel I was at the end of myself with Toffee. My Labrador was attacking other dogs and I was scared to leave the house. Nigel came and was a breath of fresh air. He was sensible kind and quite simply his methods work. In 2 lessons toffee was a changed dog and he showed me workable methods to change her behaviour. He transformed our whole life with toffee and we are all just so grateful to him. Our family could not recommend him enough. It was a complete game changer. Thanks so much Nigel.

Our session with Nigel was excellent. We booked him to come and help with our beloved French Bulldogs who have been quite unsettled after a house move and various major shifts in our routine. His approach is smart, straight forward, and based on simple principles which felt intuitive and easy to follow. Beside from all the intriguing theory and animal behaviour psychology, Nigel’s practical approach is excellent. Watching him get our dogs walking at heel, after years of increasingly chaotic lead-pulling, was quite a revelation. And then showing us how to help our dogs stop behaving anxiously and aggressively around noisy appliances was another practical example of how effective his approach is. I would absolutely recommend Dog Training in London with Nigel Reed The Dog Guardian to anybody looking to simply learn more about their animals, or really address serious issues with their pooch(es).
