"She came back much calmer, happier and fits into the family far better than before her training."
"They took our cheeky terrier and have reformed her behaviour without changing her character."
"The difference in our dog after that 4 weeks is remarkable. He walks so much better on the lead, responds to recall."
"Our dog did the 4 week residential course and the results have been brilliant. His whistle recall is near perfect."
"Our large young dog constantly pulled on the lead... Our dog's recall and basic commands have significantly improved."
"We sent our cockapoo to Bulled & Son for residential training and have been so impressed."
"We had thought about it but for various reasons were worried about going through with it... Pablo has been home for about 4 weeks now and it has been going well."
"Our boy terrier stayed with them for a month and came back much happier with other dogs and with a better understanding of boundaries."
Cons:
"Stephen’s approach... was to essentially develop gun dog style obedience... may not be exactly what you want if you live, as we do, in a city."
"Stephen is also a bit of a dogmatic personality, and I felt the handover session was somewhat inadequate."
"The main issues we wanted help with were his reactivity - to traffic and other dogs, poor recall and pulling on the lead. When we went for the assessment we met Tom and he was realistic with us about what could be achieved."
"I reached out to Stephen for his assistance with our deaf 7 year old Romanian street rescue dog Josie... We had been working unsuccessfully with a behaviourist prior and had reached our limits due to safety of being around Josie."
"We had got to the point that our 9 month old was not going off the lead as he had no recall and would growl at some dogs if they were certain colours or submissive."
"We took our dog Oakley (a 5 yr old cockapoo) to Steve and Tom in hope they could help with some aggression and behavioural issues."
"We dropped of our 14 month old miniature bull terrier Bear who was constantly and confused how to separate excitement from biting."
"We were at our wit's end with our 18-month-old Dachshund Obelix. He is a very wilful beast, who had terrible recall, barked whenever remotely displeased."
