Our rescue puppy Olive has attended Puppy Life Skills,Puppy Conversations and Bronze Life Skills. The training we received was fantastic, everyone at Goodall Dog Training is so passionate about ensuring you and your dog learn the skills needed to go out in the big wide world confidently and safely. Both courses included follow up notes which are great for referring back to especially when you have a head like a sieve and a fruit loop for a puppy. The skills are easy to learn and you can work at your dog’s pace. Olive loved the mental stimulation. We will be returning soon for our next course. Thank you Rachel and the team Team Olive (Zoe & Lilly)
Blue, our border terrier puppy, has recently completed the puppy course and now about to complete the Bronze Award class. So many useful training techniques that really work!! Very helpful mid week support when you need that extra bit of advice! The classes are great fun, really enjoyable! Highly recommend!!
Kind, gentle training with simple to implement techniques which work. Thank you Rebecca and Erica
As first dog owners who had barely stroked a dog before picking up our pup, Goodall Dog Training courses have been a lifesaver! Rachael and the team are knowledgeable, supportive and encouraging. Course content is well thought through, manageable and progressive. Great venue at the Hamble Country Park. Rachael’s “Puppy Preparation” talk was a game changer. We went on to complete “Puppy Lifeskills”, “Puppy Conversations” and now “Bronze”. Our pup is now 7 months old and we can see the progress we’ve all made. We always come away from sessions feeling positive. We haven’t always arrived in that mindset!

Third session today with Paul and Ashley training my 4 month old Belgian Mali they are both brilliant really no there stuff on how to get the best out of the dog and are more than willing to share there experience to help me develop with the dog.
After searching to find a trainer that specialises in large breeds I found SVK9 for my German shepherd. Having been working with them now for a couple of months with my puppy and the results are incredible. Effective strategies given that actually work. Working with me to give me the tools to train my puppy to be an all rounded balanced dog. Hugely impressed and am continuing regular sessions.
Found these guys while we was out walking our German shepherd one day and got talking, brilliant team of dog trainers. Very knowledgeable and give great advice, we have only had 2 sessions and seen such a massive difference in our puppy shadow. Nice open field with very few distractions so you can get the best out of your dog. Massive 👍 👍 UP from us. Will definitely be continuing, thank you guys
We had our first session with Ash yesterday for our 4.5month dobermann pup and it was excellent. He ‘cut through the noise’ of all the conflicting training approaches we’d read online and provided clarity and focus - we left knowing how we would approach training moving forward and have already put the tips into practice on our morning walk today and seen huge improvement. Looking forward to our next session!
I brought my high-drive working dog and the difference has been incredible. Their deep understanding of drive, structure, and engagement helped me learn how to channel my dog’s energy instead of fighting it. The advice and support I got were spot-on—practical, clear, and tailored to my dog’s needs. If you have a working breed or high-energy dog, this is the trainer you want. Highly recommended!

Vanessa & Scott are both great, my boys come away looking and smelling lush, Scott happily gave me some advice to help with some issues I had and it has helped 😁
Exceptional Dog Grooming service - our two Golden Retrievers enjoyed it so much. And the results were stunning. Would be happy to use this professional, friendly service again!

We booked in with Phil who met our puppy Leo who had issues with biting and patience. Phil was amazing and extremely knowledgeable. Phil had so much patience with Leo and went through step by step with us on how to control him correctly and what to do in certain situations. We booked in 3 sessions with Phil but there was no time limit and the first session was very long and Phil didn’t mind at all he just wanted to make sure we had things in place and watched Leo’s behaviour to help us as much as possible. We have took a lot away from the sessions and so has Leo he has stopped the biting and currently working on patience which he has changed into the goodest dog. Would 100% recommend Phil to anyone who needs help with their pup/dog! Phil has the knowledge for sure!
We booked Phil in yesterday to help with my very excited staffy. By the end of it she was a new dog, she calmed down and she listened. I took her for a walk today and used all the tools that Phil taught me and she done so well. Will keep practicing everyday and hopefully one day we can let her off lead. Looking foreword to seeing you again for the next stage. Thankyou so much.
Phil met Luna my new rescue dog who didn't respond well on and off the lead. I wanted to see how she was with other dogs as she got fixated easy and wow what job Phil did my girl is a different dog. I can't thank Phil enough after just one session I learnt so much about her behaviour and how to understand her in certain situations. I can't wait to put it all in practice. Phil gave me so much confidence with Luna! Thanks again Phil!
Phil was amazing and we cannot thank him enough! He trained our puppy to go through a dog flap so quickly when we had given up on him ever going through. Highly recommended.
We cannot thank Phil enough! He was excellent and very patient with Oscar. He is so knowledgeable and giving us that insight into our dogs psychology has been a game changer! Oscar is now able to walk on a loose lead and is getting more and more consistent with it thanks to Phil’s methods! We would recommend him to everyone

Really enjoyed puppy training classes with Daisy. Great fun and helped to lay a really good foundation for the future. The ‘polite interrupter’ is still something I use everyday!
Gav and Jeanette are just awesome. They were recommended to us by a friend and I couldn't have asked for better training support. We have done puppy training and now attend gun dog training classes. I have also had 1 to 1 support. Nothing is too much for them and no question is stupid. They are kind, down to earth, supportive and have a wealth of knowledge between them. I thought I was doing a rubbish job with Willow but they spent time with me and showed me that I wasn't. Best bit of advice I got last week from Gav is that of I get 25% positive feedback out of her in a session then that's okay! I keep reminding myself that I am now in the adolescent phase (the hardest phase of owning a pup!). Again without Gav and Jeanette, I wouldn't have know this. A big thank you always from me.
Jeanette has been amazing and so supportive. Her approach is kind, gentle and caring and her wealth of knowledge is vast. With Jeanette's help I have learned so much about dog behaviour and why my dog was behaving in a certain way. I highly recommend The Family Dog Club. Thank you for all your help and support.
Fantastic. Gav and Jeanette are so knowledgeable and really friendly and welcoming. I'll definitely be returning
Gav and Jeanette have helped us out so much with our dogs over the past couple of years. They both have so much knowledge but also genuinely care about dogs and their owners having a truly successful relationship. On top of this the sessions are always a good laugh
