FAQs — Harlow

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 Harlow 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 offer board and train in Harlow?

Yes — residential board and train is our most popular training route. Your dog lives with us for 2–6 weeks then comes home to Harlow with a full handover. Every placement includes a full handover session at your home in Harlow so you're confident with the commands and the dog is confident in your environment.
