Looking for professional dog training in Northamptonshire

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.

Loved the harlestone firs dog walk and can’t wait to join u again! Fab idea!

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

Excellent Service, great value, all problems solved. Would recommend to anyone. Really impressed,…

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

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.

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

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!

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

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.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

Chris was instrumental in building my confidence when I brought my two puppies home. The girls are well behaved, obeident and happy

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.

I would highly recommend Chris,great results,professional,friendly service. Thanks

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

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

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

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.
