Thank you Mac!”

Florence - Dog Training Client
“Thank you thank you thank you!
Mac has been absolutely amazing at training our reactive dog, we opted for the 2 week 1-1 home training which was the best decision we have ever made. He kept us informed of his progress constantly with video updates to save and refer back to in the future and guides on how to deal with certain situations. The difference in such a short period of time made us pretty speechless. The bond and trust Mac built up with Ralph was amazing and emotional to see. Ralph was fully engaged with him and Mac was always in control. He welcomed Ralph into his home where he socialised Ralph with Soul his dog and his three cats (Ralph has never been around cats and we was nervous for this, but Mac introduced them and later in the time they were playing together). We trusted him fully with our dog, we felt so at ease knowing he was his trainer and looking after Ralph. We got a clear breakdown, guidance on what to do next and advice for Ralph’s nutrition as well. We will 100% work with Mac for on-going sessions and more 1-1 home training. I couldn’t recommend Mac enough as a trainer.”

Michael - Dog Training Client
“Mac & (special thanks to Soul also) have been amazing help.

Prior to our puppy (Wallace) staying with Mac he was constantly over excited at home and easily distracted when outdoors.

He’s now back home and sleeping on the sofa as I write this and we also had an amazing off lead walk in the local park this morning where not even a half marathon and hundreds of people were enough of a distraction for him to run off!

We couldn’t recommend Mac enough. We had regular daily updates throughout Wallace’s stay and he had such a great time learning new things. Mac has a very patient nature and almost instantly has the trust of his pupils (us included). We will continue to use Mac for regular training and Wally is already looking forward to his next trip to Kent!”
