Hailey Village Hall, Middletown, Hailey, Witney OX29 9TZ
From the initial home visit through to the final puppy class Helen was knowledgeable, understanding and calm; she even arranged a group dog walk to aid socialising. Her style of teaching is fun but all the ingredients are there for you to get results. Formalisation of homework also really helps, but she is very prgmatic about the busy lives we all lead. We have already signed up to the next set of (junior) classes!
We have just completed the 6-week puppy course with Helen and it has been amazing for us and our dog Chester. We were reassured from the get-go that Helen is not expecting anything from the puppies in week 1, however since completing at week 6 our dog is very responsive and confident with commands, has good recall and heels really well. He has come on really well and our this training course has helped heaps with this! :) We will be signing ourselves up to the Junior course as I believe it will help further our understanding and improve on things we've already learned, thanks Helen!
What a super course, fun and very informative, we learned so much about our puppy. We are so impressed, we have booked the Junior Course too.
As a first time puppy owner I found this course enormously helpful and reassuring. It was fun and informative, strongly recommend this course for puppies and humans 😁
Helen is fantastic! Kind, patient and super knowledgeable. She made puppy class training fun. Everything was as simple as possible. It was a great 6 weeks, we learned so much in a judgment free class. We'll be returning for the Junior class soon!

Very good service, very helpful & informative people. Big improvement in my dogs behaviour, thank you Ashley!
Ash is amazing and has put me and my dog down the correct path to help me in the future. Ash has given me tips and hints on how work with my dog to get best out of him and to improve our relationship. It was amazing to see the change in my dogs behaviour so quickly after just one lesson. Really appreciate the help that ash has given me.
The sessions with Ash are brilliant. Clearly he is an expert in his field and is very happy to share the knowledge he has gained. His training has had a huge impact on my puppies progress, delivering great results with walking on and off the lead and socialisation with other dogs. We can’t thank him enough
I first met Ashley approximately 12 years ago in Herefordshire. I booked a puppy lesson with my new GSD and a lesson with my adult GSD. Each lesson lasted one and half hours .The lessons were very informative . Ashley was friendly, helpful, full of knowledge plus everything “dog”. From that point on, following the rules and training shown, my beloved GSD’s led a wonderful life. My current 6 month old GSD started to show some reactivity and I knew it was time to touch base again with Ashley. One lesson with Ashley and the problem was sorted. Ashley was so helpful with lots of advice moving forward and was very keen to cover everything before he left. Ashley is a hands on trainer and demonstrates what is expected and how it works. I would 100% recommend Ashley for any breed of dog and their problems. If you are lucky enough to meet his dogs you will see exactly how and why his methods and knowledge work.
I have had a really positive experience with Vislor training and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a knowledgeable trainer. Everything has been very quick and easy in terms of contacting them and getting set up with a trainer.Kevin (my dog) has a great rapport with our trainer Ash and I get continued support via text when I’m unsure of something.

We were ready to give up on our puppy until we met Tatiana. She has restored our faith . Supportive , goes over and above and obviously loves what she does. She’s firm but kind to the puppies . Having had Tatiana come to our house which I think is the best thing we did , we’ve now joined her follow on classes for older puppies and will be enjoying her scent class later in the year . We would like to thank you Tatiana because without you we would have rehomed him. Thank you from all of us .
Excellent puppy training - highly recommend this team!
We really enjoyed the puppy classes with Tatiana and Liz. Our puppy was older (7 months old) than the other puppies and was made to feel very welcome by the trainers and the other dog owners. It was a friendly group. The classes covered the basics with lots of individual advice and tips shared. We were lucky with the weather and it was great being able to do most of the classes outside in the field. It was a very practical class and the dogs were engaged in activities most of the time. I would highly recommend the classes and hope to continue further training with the team.
Highly recommend Tatiana's Adult dog courses. We have now completed 2 'blocks' of classes and I am really keen to continue. Compared to the puppy training we did elsewhere, these classes are worlds apart. The small classes means that the lessons can be tailored to what the specific dogs/humans need, rather than following a strict plan. Tatiana's ability to adapt challenges dependant on each breed, proves a wealth of experience with dog behaviour not just generic instructions. On top of that the lessons are fun and something I look forward to each week. Thank you so much x
Amazing dog trainer that made lots of progress with my puppy!

I found Darren to be fantastic for the first bit of training with my puppy. He really knows his breeds and the different ways in which they need handling and ensured that as owners we all learnt in the way that was right for our pups. We will be having a month break from classes to really practice what we’ve learnt so far before going back for the puppy advanced class. I can’t thank Darren enough for giving us such a brilliant start to our training journey. Vicky.
Our 4 month old Goldendoodle loved the classes. Run by Darren who was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and most of all, patient. Rollo made lovely friends over the 8 weeks and we look forward to taking Darren up on some advanced classes in summer.
Excellent puppy training classes could not recommend enough! We will go onto one to one training with our boy and bring our newest girl back to the foundation!
Excellent Gundog training sessions and workshops. Louis has really benefited from the training. Highly recommended.
Excellent classes with a calm, knowledgeable trainer. It was perfect for my puppy and it was interesting to be in a class with a variety of dogs as it’s good to see how the different breeds react and learn.

Linda was fantastic in helping us with our puppy Roxy. She was kind, patient, and calm and teaching us about dog psychology which has helped train Roxy and also very interesting to learn. We saw results in couple of days, fantastic! High recommend.
Linda from Dogs Behaving Calmly helped us coach our puppy Golden Retriever. Linda’s approach is both methodical and clear, but equally enjoyable. The explanation of the dog psychology element was interesting and helped us understand why we do what we do during the training sessions. Our dog ‘graduated’ from the 6 week course, leaving us with the skills to mould her into an obedient adult dog. My partner and I would thoroughly recommend Linda and her calm approach to puppy training.
Thank you Linda! Linda helped us with the Puppy training classes and she was incredible. Kind, calm and amazingly patient with our crazy cocker spaniel pup. It was so interesting learning about the psychology of dogs and training them, which has then allowed us to train our dog even better. Highly recommend.
Very helpful, calm and cannot thank her enough in helping our small puppy to learn the basics skills. I would definitely recommend to anyone I know! Thank you!
Linda’s advice, along with her teachings, are game changers. We had two “rule the roost” Shih Tzus… until Monday afternoon when we met this wonderful lady. Since then, we now have two very different, chilled out, dogs. Walks always filled us with trepidation. This morning was the first time we were able the put her ideas into practice. Guess what?… They work! Both dogs walked to heel, didn’t pull and it was pleasurable. Although we didn’t encountered any other dogs on the walk around the estate this morning, we will be fully prepared for when we do. 5*s. Thank you, Linda.
