Natalie & Oliver (Cockerpoo)

We had a one-to-one session with our 10mth Cockerpoo who has lots of energy and no training classes due to lockdown. The session was fantastic and well worth the money, we have never seen our dog so calm and well behaved after 1.5 hours of Mike’s time. He gave us lots of tips and training to do at home and explained everything very clearly for us to understand. Can’t thank Mike enough, very professional and COVID safe. I would recommend to everyone to try a 121 session during lockdown, or indeed at any other time!
