Just had my first session with Roman (Alliance K9). I had a sense of some of the things I needed to address, but had my eyes opened to a few I weren't aware of. Great initial assessment, very knowledgeable and immediately had more engagement from my dogs than I have for a while. Looking forward to my sessions with him. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to get more from their dog.
We bought 2 puppies 6 weeks ago and have been doing to Alliance from the get go. The change in our dogs is incredible! Non stop compliments and disbelief from friend and family about how good our 2 13 week old puppies are, and this is just from a few sessions! Highly recommend Roman, he's incredible at what he does and his understanding of dogs is next level.
I recently had my initial assessment with my 6-month-old Belgian Malinois x Staffy cross, and the experience exceeded my expectations. Roman provided clear, structured guidance on establishing boundaries and leadership, which was invaluable for me as a first-time dog owner. The session gave me a much better understanding of how a dog’s mind works and how easily unwanted habits can develop if not addressed correctly.I was particularly impressed with how Roman tailored the training plan to fit seamlessly into my daily routine, ensuring it was both realistic and sustainable. His direct and honest feedback was also refreshing, as it highlighted exactly where improvements were needed without any ambiguity. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the service provided and feel much more confident moving forward with my dog’s training journey.
Arrange an assessment and go see for yourself. However, as far as my own opinion goes, Alliance K9 ticks all the boxes and was everything I have been looking for in an experienced dog trainer. Roman is clearly very knowledgable and passionate about canine welfare and growth. More than that, he respectfully challenged and motivated me in a way whereby success wasn’t limited to my dog, but allowed me to progress as a more confident handler. I came away with a thorough understanding of my dog’s needs, as Roman was able to condense years of expertise in clear and succinct manner to help me meet the canine/human expectations. Plus, unlike other trainers he didn’t charge the earth to do so. His transparency and trustworthiness was actually refreshing. If that wasn’t enough, even got to see his young child working his own demo dog. The coolest thing I’ve seen in a while. Top bloke.
We had 5 one to one sessions with Roman for our 1 year old Golden Retriever to help with her engagement and reactivity. He was clear, direct and extremely knowledgable and explained everything to us as well which was great because it educated us and made everything make sense. He guided us well during the sessions and gave us homework to do in between each one. We have seen a big difference in Mabel’s behaviour whilst out on walks and we will continue to put things into practice. We are looking forward to going on some group sessions with Roman in the future! Thank you.

We have learnt so much from our puppy classes. The training has been brilliant and our puppy has really enjoyed it. We now have the skills to go forward. I highly recommend to anyone out there who has a puppy. Thank you to the lovely trainers.
Neil was an excellent help with our grumpy dachshund. A 3hr session has resulted in massive improvement within weeks of implementation. I couldn't recommend Best Behaviour K9 enough!
I had a one to one session with Neil today ralph was a totally different dog by the end of the session I no we have a lot of work to do with him but Neil's a mind of information I highly recommend very knowledgeable trainer.
Well worth every penny! Laura was fantastic training us and our dog Bonnie!! Bonnie reacted badly when on a lead, to other dogs on leads by barking. People thought she was aggressive. After 4 sessions with Laura and lots of homework it is now a pleasure walking Bonnie. Would recommend to anyone!
I can’t recommend these enough! We have Laura as our trainer who has seen our rescue pup all the way through puppy and deputy classes. Couldn’t have chosen anyone better!! Io has some behavioural issues due to his past and this school and trainers have been a blessing when giving us continuous help and advice through classes, Facebook group, WhatsApp and more. I can’t rave about them enough. If you manage to get Laura as your trainer too she’s honestly a god send. We will definitely be continuing our training with them🙏🏻

Couldn’t recommend enough! Our pup wasn’t so confident with the basics to begin with but is now more confident then ever ! Definitely be coming back ☺️
I phoned for advice and potential help/guidance about a purchase of an English Bull Terrier, talk about clear some issues! His help, advice and guidance was 1st class, extremely friendly and none condescending, we will go ahead with the English Bull Terrier and will definitely be back in touch.
Dawson really helped my dog with reactivity. Walks are much easier now, and I am so grateful!
Absolutely delighted with the progress my dog has made in such a short space of time, DK9 academy has helped me and my dog overcome obstacles that I never thought possible.
Fantastic training, very pleased with the progress of my furry friend! Highly recommend

I highly recommend employing Kate as a dog trainer. She is fantastic with dogs and is amazing at breaking things down really clearly to handlers/owners. I have learnt a lot from Kate's approaches to dog training, as she has such a methodical and effective way of working.
I have just completed an online course with Kate after rescuing my dog from Street Hearts Bulgaria, for whom Kate is the patron. Knowledgeable and patient, Kate gave us simple, clear guidance, providing us the building blocks of training for a happy relationship together. We covered creating a strong bond, recall, and other useful commands as well as some fun tricks along the way. I highly recommend training with Kate and Landela Dogs!
We can highly recommend Thuli as a personalised dog trainer. We have a rescue Labrador / cross breed who has had some serious behaviour problems - most notably aggressive sounding "reactive" barking, mainly at other dogs. Thuli took time to listen to the difficulties we were having with our dog, even before we met. This was by an initial free telephone call. This gave us confidence Thuli understood the issues and would be able to help us. Another advantage is that she has a lot of experience working with rescue dogs. She has given us a number of really helpful strategies that have already made a significant difference to the behaviour of our dog (and us, her owners!).
Can't thank Kate enough for the help with my 2 year old rescue Bonnie. So far we are working on building confidence and her checking in with me, loose lead walking. Kate explains everything clearly and with patience. Would highly recommend.

Kelly provides a really professional service. She sent photos and video's every day of the cats, which is really nice
I knew within five minutes of meeting Kelly that Valky Pet Care was the one for me. Punctual, organised, experienced and professional was my first impression. I left 3 cats, 2 goats and 12 geese in her card for over two weeks, got daily updates and photos, and came home to find relaxed animals in clean housing and all my instructions followed to the letter. She also did the important little extras like watering my plants. I recommend Valley Pet Care very highly, and will use Kelly's services again whenever I need to go away longer than overnight.
Fabulous, friendly service, highly recommended for your pet care needs.
I would not trust anyone else with my boy. Kelly is the most professional dog walker I have ever met and would get to your dogs in all weathers.
My dog Rosie loves going to paddock play sessions with Kelly. Rosie gets to run freely in the paddock in complete safety with other dogs, adding an important social aspect to the session. Rosie has fun with the toys, and paddling pool Kelly has provided in the paddock. Kelly is professional, reliable, and most importantly Rosie absolutely loves her.
