Hi Chris,
A big thanks from Nikki and myself for all your help with Alfie and Ringo in the 1-2-1 session.
In literally just a few hours we went from having a mad house to almost complete calm.
Still work to be done in following your plan but the results are extrodinary to say the least. Highly recommend anyone to do this.
Thanks again,
Dan & Nikki
Chris is helping my dog Jake, who after the loss of our other dog, behaviour was getting out of control, he’s always been excitable but his hyperactivity went off the scale & just a simple walk was a major task. After our first session I couldn’t believe the change in Jake, Chris had made it so i enjoyed walking my dog again & given me some great advice on keeping him calm at home too. Just had a follow up session in which even more improvements were made. At 7 years old I didn’t think you could ‘teach an old dog new tricks’ but clearly I was wrong!
Thought I’d update you on Mollys progress since you visited a couple of weeks ago.. we are making some real progress minimal barking in house and garden and she is settling in her bed and having some good down time.. a lot calmer and settled than before and we are now walking on her collar with no harness and fingers crossed so far so good.. still a bit of a way to go but we are in a really good place so far and we still have some cuddles so I am a happy bunny too
I came for my first ever Agilio class and had a superb time. I really enjoyed it and think I was rather good. My human said the basic obedience ground work was really paying off, that the way I looked to her for instruction meant at Agilio I as able to do exactly what was asked of me. thank you Human Chris for helping us.
Hi Chris, Well, what can i say. BRILLIANT!!!!!! We have 2 Black Labs, A 4 year old and a puppy, The puppy was a nightmare, too much energy and a real handful. Chris came to see us one evening to see what he could do and within minutes Bronx (the puppy) really settled down. Chris today came back to spend a few hours with us and the dogs and WOW, the dogs now walk to heel instead of walking us. they now don’t climb on the furniture unless they are called up and wait at the bottom of the stairs instead of bolting up after us. Its almost a miracle. He put together a structured dog walk so we can go out and fulfil the dogs both physically and mentally. Im rambling a bit but you get the idea. Definately worth the time, money and i wish i’d called him months ago. Thanks again Chris. Regards Dave and April
We had a one to one session with chris rose took on his advice and there has been a big improvement with walking both our dogs. We attended the event this saturday and were really surprised at how our dogs began to interact with other dogs. Thanks chris will be there next saturday. Laura and Duncan
Loved the harlestone firs dog walk and can’t wait to join u again! Fab idea!
Chris you were my saviour I had a very agressive dog who you turned into a much more social animal in 3 hours. Thank You.
Hello Chris
Just a quick up date Lewie and Holly my two German Shepards are no longer jumping up when people knock the door and Lewie is not bouncing all over the place when he sees the leads. All in all my house is now a peaceful and happy house thank you for all your help who would have thought one day would solve what I’d been trying to do in six months so thanks once again your a star
Since your one on one training session the other evening, I have seen more improvement in all three of our dog than I ever thought possible. I have seen all three of my dogs relax around strangers and their dogs. Walking the dogs is now enjoyable. Thanks again.
Chewing socks, bouncing round the furniture, can’t answer the front door, pulling on lead, over excited dog. Get the picture?? Well Chris has sorted all of this out and more. Happy dog equals happy owner and happy owner equals happy dog. What more can I say other than Thank you very much Chris you are a master
Chris was instrumental in building my confidence when I brought my two puppies home. The girls are well behaved, obeident and happy
Hi Chris what a fantastic day i had when you came and spend the day with me and Bella.
Our Westie bitch would bark and go totaly mental even with volume off at the tv to the extent we could not watch the tv and always bark when in the garden and bite if you touched her paws or put the lead on her .
After spending the day with you she totaly changed from a misbehvouring puppie to a more relaxed and behaved puppie.
We can now touch her paws and brush her without her biting and watch any tv program we want with no barking or going mad and pulling things of the table because the tv is on. I would recomend you to anybody who has problems with there dog.
To see her change within a couple of hours of you bieng with her is amazing.
she now walks on the lead without pulling also thanks to you it is a joy to take her out with us now.
Chris worked his magic on my lovely lurcher. It took a long time but was so worth it! Today we had a lovely walk. Thank you
Thank you Chris for the brilliant advice you gave me to help me with my Labrador, Bailey. I’m confident Bailey and I will have the jumping up under control in no time.
Thank you for getting back to me so quickly too. Lou & Bailey
We have a 6 month Newfoundland pup “Meg”. Lovely nature, but bad jumping up habit. Thanks to Chris’s advice and guidance we can now return home from a spell out without getting jumped all over. We continue to seek his guidance and think his prices are real value for money.
Hi Chris. Thank you so much for all your help with Leesha (and Jet). Having thought that we had taken on a dog aggressive dog , your patience and good sense has shown us that she is just highly excitable and has never learnt how to play appropriately. With some brilliant training techniques now in place we have already seen a marked improvement and are looking forward to enjoying many happy years dog walking – hopefully not constantly in the rain
Hi Chris,
All I can say is WOW!!
What a difference a day makes!
Having had Chris round on a 1-2-1 to sort out our pack of 4 terriers, he soon had them behaving themselves.
We have a issue with 2 of the dogs fighting and the tips and pointers that have been given to us
have been remarkable, even though its only been a few hours!!
We can not begin to express our gratitude, what a remarkable guy!!
Thanks again
Dave & Leanne
What a fantastic time we had yesterday at the group dog walk. Have started training today. It has helped to understand Mickeys behaviour and it was great to meet you
Fantastic. I have learned a few things that would be handy for my dog. my dog enjoyed the agility and was a great way to finish the session. Will be looking out for the next event. Would advise anyone to take their dogs.
Chris reminded us who the leader of the pack should be and surprisingly it shouldn’t be the dog!!! He gave us plenty of suggestions and advice, and I can honestly say that they have made a great difference. Thanks for everything Chris.
Thanks for helping us with echo, can’t believe the massive improvement in her. Returns from walk leave me with no aching arms and with the dog thanks to the recall training ! it’s fun to take her for a walk now
I took on a little rescue staffy, who had a big separation issue and was very unsure around other dogs. Thanks to Chris and all his hard work my little girl now happily interacts with all other dogs and will sleep peacefully in her bed when left home alone:D. I would certainly recommend Chris to anyone with dog behavior issues.
Had a brilliant time on the pack walk today. It was great for Ted to meet so many other dogs in a safe environment, and fun for me to meet so many lovely dog owners. Training session was great too, a real test of concentration. Ted is exhausted and is enjoying a well earned nap. Thank you
Hiya Chris. Its one week on and Ginny is already loads better. Her new lead arrived the next day and she is getting used to it. Kong bought and in use and no more howling when I leave her at home and I opened the front door to the postman and she was as good as gold 🙂 .Hoping to come to your walk on Sat so will c u there. Oh and the trainers are happy for you to come to the club if you want to. Thanks so much Gail
I cannot thank you enough for the help given in the one to one with us and Harvey. I wouldn’t have believed we could have such fast results but he and I are much happier and our relationship is much calmer. we are enjoying being all together and are recommending you to everyone!
Absolutely well impressed by the advice and help given fantastic 🙂 very nice man too
Hi Chris
Thanks for the 1-2-1 visit yesterday. I can already see a change in Bryn’s behaviour, and my visitor said he was like a different dog
Hi Chris, you saw me and Tess the puppy collie on Monday. Just to let you know things are going really well, we made all the changes you suggested and she is responding really well. My husband couldn’t believe it was the same dog when he got home! I hope to join your 7-8 class this Friday. Regards Nicola
After re-homing Harry, an 8 year old Lab, from the Dogs Trust. We noticed that we had some pack leader issues in the home. I contacted Chris, who came to our home and noted the problems I had. Within hours Chris had taught me how to deal with these issues. His training methods are incredible. He communicates with dogs on another level. He has given me the confidence to apply what he taught me. All I can say is, thank you Chris.
Chris to came see our dog called max who was slightly dog aggressive and wouldn’t walk to heel. After a visit from chris and dedication from us Max is like a different dog. We in herited my mother in laws dog. She is a gorgeous dog but no matter how hard we tried she would do the same as Max. So we contacted Chris. Yet again he has made such a difference to our household. Sadie now walks to heel on the lead and i can now get to my front door without being shoved out the way and go for a drive in the car without 2 dogs whining in my ear. Chris is a life saver and i trust his techniques. Thank you Chris.
Hi. I just wanted to share a proud moment today. I have a young Tibetan mastiff who through a set of unfortunate circumstances developed nervous aggression and dominance. The result was 4 hrs in A&E with a friend he bit and a few weeks later a lesser bite to me. I so nearly gave up on him but three months later and with help and support from Chris he is a different dog.
The vets had become a traumatic experience for us both, even muzzled he would growl and bark and even snap …at the vet.
Today we went for a check up and he didn’t make a sound, allowed the vet to check his ears, his and also his feet and even stick a needle in his neck. There have been lots of milestones reached in the last three months but this has to be the best so far! We still have a long way to go but I am so much more positive about our future and the bond and trust between him and me is so much stronger.
I wanted to share this for anyone with a dog with similar issues to show that with hard work, patience and trust even what you thought was hopeless can be turned around
Thankyou to the Legend. Chris started working with, Ollie our working cocker. He was very aggressive towards other dogs to such an extend that we simply did not enjoy walking him and had pick our routes and times to avoid other dogs. Chris worked with us on structured walks, at home and with his own pack and was ‘like a dog with a bone’ until he was satisfied that he understood Ollies behaviour. We were given a plan of action and Chris was in touch constantly to check our progress. We have just returned from a 2 hour walk, encountered many individual and groups of dogs with no issue whatsoever. Thanks to Chris this is very much the norm now. Thanks again Sam and Martin
Attended puppy training seminar on Friday. Very informative and somewhat reassuring – we are not alone in our miscommunications! Thanks Chris it is already helping and we are keeping our poker faces in place for the bad and rewarding the good. 😉 Excitedly looking forward to next week.
Bruno has been making brilliant progress since our one to one session. The obedience skills you taught us all have turned our lives around to be honest! He has settled in really well and the little hints and tips about our behavior towards him have been great. We look forward to the next group walk! Thanks again
Chris has spent the day with myself and Jackson my 9 month old puppy who was displaying almost every behaviour going. Jackson was the top dog in my home and that was down to me allowing him to be in control. Jackson would bark constantly at everything, get over excited and nip at visitors and myself, he would steal any object lying around, dig holes in my garden the list was endless. Jackson is now already alot calmer and and I feel I am in control. This is down to Chris and how he understands dogs so well. His techniques are instant and my disobedient puppy was at last following instructions. I know it is now down to me and working hard to be consistent and making sure that everyone that comes into contact with Jackson sticks to our new rules, which from Chris’ advice I am already typing up to display. Thank you so much Chris
I would highly recommend Chris,great results,professional,friendly service. Thanks
Excellent Service, great value, all problems solved. Would recommend to anyone. Really impressed,…
We had introduced a labrador puppy into our household with existing 3 year old lab and they were fighting when off the lead – since our day with Chris we implemented his suggestions and now have two very calm dogs who are happy to play together – this was a massive success for us. Thanks very much.
