FAQs — Great Dunmow

My dog reacts on the lead — can this be fixed?

In most cases, yes. We assess honestly — sometimes it's frustration, sometimes fear, sometimes handler timing. The plan for a Great Dunmow dog reflects which one it actually is.

Do you use e-collars or aversives?

We use whatever the dog in front of us needs, within the law, and we explain every tool honestly before you agree to anything. No dogma, no gimmicks.

Do you do off-lead recall work?

Off-lead reliability is a headline outcome for us — including around distractions like joggers, other dogs and wildlife at places like Doctor's Pond. We train dogs in the environments they actually live in — that's the whole reason we work on location across Essex, not just in a hall.

How much does 1-2-1 training cost?

Pricing depends on the programme. We'll give you a straight number on the first call, not a form filler and a wait. Aftercare is included. Phone, message, follow-up sessions — you're not left guessing after delivery.
