Amazing service, we have had one to ones with Connor and the improvements have been amazing, on our first session we was assisted by Katie aswell as Connor and again a great session. We have learnt so much already! We have attended our first group session with Danny, which was a great experience and fun! Would definitely recommend Unleashed K9 Services!! They are an amazing service that really know how best to deliver dog training! Always offering support and guidance which is superb!!

This team are known as the best in the UK and they certainly live up to that! We have a high drive Belgian Malinois puppy who was showing nerv around people and other dogs. We have been training with Robbie and within a few weeks he is coming on leaps and bounds! We no longer stress over walks or around environments, we can actually enjoy the outdoors without thinking of scenarios that could happen. Robbie goes into every detail with you and the work and advice we follow at home has absolutely paid off! I honestly could not recommend these guys enough! Absolutely life changing results already!

I couldn’t recommend dog trainers more than Unleashed K9. My GSD is 3 years old, and I’ve tried other trainers in the past, but nothing worked, and I was left with an anxious, erratic dog, who I dreaded walking. A few months ago, I booked my first session with Connor, and have been going ever since. I now understand Luna’s behaviour so much more, and I’m loving seeing all the breakthroughs and milestones I’m reaching with her, and it is such a relief to finally have a dog that can walk nicely on the lead after three years. I look forward to our sessions, as we learn something new every time. Connor has been a massive support; he is informative, friendly and his confidence in his methods and understanding has put me at ease. At Unleashed, they really go the extra mile to cater to each individual dogs needs, (such as having their own dogs around to help mine become calmer around them) and I’ve not seen that from other trainers I’ve used previously. Luna still has issues to overcome, but I’m confident that both the one to one sessions and group classes will help us get there.

I can't thank unleashedk9 enough -especially Connor who has truly changed my life (and my dogs life) for the better. Before starting training walks with my dog who is a Malshi was a nightmare. He was extremely reactive barking , lunging and making so much noise everytime we saw another dog. I dreaded taking him out and honestly felt hopeless. From the very first session , Connor made me feel welcome at ease and completely understood. His unbelievable knowledge and calm ,confident approach gave me hope again. In just 6 weeks, the transformation has been incredible. My dog is calmer , more focused and for the first time in 18 months I'm actually enjoying going on walks. The progress we've made I didn't think was possible, and my only regret is not booking with unleashedk9 sooner. If you're struggling with a reactive dog then I cannot recommend Connor and the team enough.

⸻ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 Stars – Absolutely Life-Changing Training! I can’t say enough good things about Connor at Unleashed K9. He has completely transformed my Rottweiler, Bomber. He was a very nervous puppy and was worried this would lead to reactivity , but with Connor’s guidance, he’s now focused, obedient, and an absolute joy to be around. Connor’s approach is calm, confident, and incredibly effective. He understands dogs on a whole different level and tailors the training to both the dog’s personality and the owner’s needs. I really appreciated how he explained not just what to do, but why—so I felt confident continuing the work at home. Bomber now walks politely on and off leash, listens to commands even with distractions, and is so much more relaxed overall. I’ve gotten so many compliments from friends and strangers on how well-behaved he is—it’s all thanks to Connor’s expertise and patience. Anybody who owns a Rottweiler knows this is a massive compliment. If you want a trainer who truly cares about your dog and gets real results, I highly recommend Connor at Unleashed K9. Bomber and I couldn’t be happier

I fully recommend DogsGo. They have helped me so much and gave so much of their effort to help my crazy Dennis! He’s such a clever boy now and this is all down to the team giving me the foundations to support him to be the best boy. I honestly cannot thank them enough and have already recommended them to friends and family with pups/Dogs as they are so brilliant!.

We highly recommend Ryan. He obviously loves dogs and takes great care and pride in his work. We have a most difficult high energy, high prey patterdale terrier called Chewy. Ryan was brilliant and gave us sound, helpful advice that really worked with our wayward terrier mix. Ryan is knowledgeable and was patient not only with Chewy but also with us. He helped us understand what needs to be done to help Chewy and ourselves move forward. We received great training tips and advise on foods to help with a variety of behavioural issues. All in all, our training and, of course, Chewy's was a fab experience 😀 Thanks Eddie and Karen

Excellent first day at School with Brian for our young Lenny!! Brian is the original dog whisperer and had our young pup Len paying attention, focusing, and following commands within 15 minutes of being there….an eye opening, educational, and effective session with a trainer that has over 50 years experience and it shows in his expertise and professionalism! We’ll be doing our homework ready for session 2 next week 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Thanks Brian

We had our first one-to-one session with K9 International today for our 12-week-old German Shepherd puppy. The session was incredibly informative and tailored specifically to our needs. They explained everything clearly and demonstrated techniques in a way that was easy to follow. In just one session, we saw noticeable improvement in our puppy's behavior and felt more confident as dog owners. The practical tips and exercises we learned today are things we can easily incorporate into our daily routine. If you're looking for a knowledgeable, professional, and friendly dog trainer, we wholeheartedly recommend K9 International. We’re excited to continue our training journey and can’t wait for the next session!
