We coach you through reps and homework so progress holds on walks, at home, and around distractions.

- Recall that fails around dogs, people, or wildlife
- Pulling and lunging on lead
- Reactivity to dogs or strangers
- Over-excitement, jumping up, poor manners
- Anxiety, fear, confidence issues

Testimonial
Mac (and the rest of his family - 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!
