"Really enjoyed our bronze part one workshop. Well laid out class and everything explained properly. Looking forward to being able to practice what we’ve learnt and move on to part two! Definitely recommend Andy! He’s patient, understanding and cares about the dogs wellbeing."

"Completed the bronze sniffer dog training a few weeks ago. The trainer was friendly and very knowledgeable, breaking down the techniques into easy-to-follow steps. The training is more about training you to allow your dog to do something natural but allowing you to build a bond and engage their mind. I would highly recommend it. Thanks once again. We've continued daily to use the skills we learnt and are looking for to the next stage.”
