THE DIFFERENCE IS UNREAL
Our walks were so stressful and overwhelming – we were constantly avoiding every dog we saw, and it felt like we’d never get back to enjoying being out with our dogs.
Now we’re relaxed, confident and actually enjoying our walks again – it’s like a huge weight’s been lifted off our shoulders.

WE CAN ACTUALLY ENJOY WALKS AGAIN
On walks, Ozzy would lurch towards other dogs and pull really hard on the lead towards distractions. It was making walks utter hell.
Since completing the programme, it's worked wonders and we can actually enjoy walks again without dreading it.

TRANSFORMED OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH OUR DOG
Constant pulling on the lead... then 20 mins into our program and we had a pattern that worked. We've never looked back from this point.
Encounters with other dogs are normal and non-reactive, our stress levels have massively reduced and the relationship with our dog has changed from being a chore to enjoyment.
We feel in control and confident!

INVALUABLE HAVING TRAINERS WHO TRULY UNDERSTAND
Ben’s advice is always practical and confidence-boosting, and we’re never made to feel stupid or that we’re doing things wrong.
His love for dogs and deep understanding of behaviour is obvious, and they’re always happy to answer questions — sometimes feeling more like therapists for us than dog trainers in those early puppy months!
We’re so glad we found Bravo Dog Training. Brilliant all round, and we’re extremely grateful for all the help and support.

FANTASTIC WITH MY ANXIOUS RESCUE
Ben did some fantastic training with my German Shepherd Luca, who I adopted from a shelter in Romania. He was withdrawn and anxious and very defensive of the house when we had people come round or deliveries, barking non stop until our guests had left.
Ben did some great work with Luca to reduce his stress and improve his anxiousness.
Now he barks to let me know someone is there (which I was keen to have), then settles right down - allowing me to receive guests or deliveries. Thank you so much Ben.

IT'S BEEN AMAZING
We always wanted a well-trained dog that the kids could interact with, but on walks Tigger was prey-driven and couldn't be walked nicely by us or the kids.
Thanks to Ben, we're now all able to walk our dog to school, with the kids holding the lead - even with a distraction like a cat or another dog in the way.
It's like a totally different dog! He's by our side walking all the time now, no more pulling.

WE CAN NOW HAVE GUESTS OVER WITHOUT NEGATIVE REACTIONS
We were in immediate need of help with our Frenchie Bleu, due to having a baby the next month. We couldn't have anyone over to our home as he would bark, growl and scratch.
Ben came over and less than a week later, he's no longer barking and doesn't have to be shut away in the kitchen - we can now have guests over again!
Best thing we ever did. Thanks Ben.

THE CONFIDENCE I NEEDED
Ben has set me up with the confidence I need, after working with our reactive dog who we were finding overwhelming.
​
He no longer barks at people, walks great on his lead and we’re now passing other dogs with ease.
​
What previously seemed like a situation that was getting worse now feels like there’s light at the end of the tunnel.
I would highly recommend him to anyone… and do!
