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 Hoddesdon 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 Hoddesdon?

Yes — residential board and train is our most popular training route. Your dog lives with us for 2–6 weeks then comes home to Hoddesdon with a full handover.
