People keep saying very nice things about me

  • Person walking a dog on a leash outdoors with a house and cloudy sky in the background.

    “Elliot has helped to transform my relationship with my dogs, his support has been invaluable in helping to meet their breed needs.”

    Team Lauren & Pip

  • A dog trainer fitting a brown dog with a harness during a training session outdoors.

    “My dog's a d*ckhead and he drives me up the wall. We take him on two hour walks but these classes are the only thing that tire him out.”

    Team Tamsin & Murphy

  • A woman with short blonde hair, wearing a black tank top and denim shorts, training a golden retriever sitting on the grass. Other people and dogs are in the background on a sunny day, near buildings.

    “Elliot is so friendly and welcoming. His positive attitude and praise have built up our confidence. We can’t recommend him highly enough.”
