Testimonials

I would just like to say a huge thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for the training sessions me and F had with you. I cannot believe the change in our walks. He is now off lead at some point on every walk, he is so happy - as am I!! He still chases after birds/anything that moves but I am now able to call him back, do a bit of heel work and release him again, and having the confidence to be able to do that has been an absolute game changer. I really can't believe how much things have changed in such a short period of time and am so very grateful to you

Thank you so much for all the help and advice training T***. It has been revolutionary to call her back during a walk and at the end of a walk- and she comes straight back. Its incredible! Its changed her safety but also how we live with her as a family and walks are so much fun again. Can’t thank you enough.

Another lovely day enjoying my dog, all thanks to you. I’m letting her off lead much more in areas I wouldn’t normally. She is walking really nicely to heel, on and off lead. She is calmer in the house. It’s given me my mojo back to further my training. You are amazing and such a lovely man, who ended up being my agony aunt too. Keep doing what you do, dogs like B have a much enriched and enjoyable life because of it. She is now becoming the dog I dreamed of having.

Paddy was randomly jumping into fields( never knew if livestock was present !). As a consequence, he was walked for several weeks on a long line. Not ideal....Now thanks to Jamie, Paddy and my other dog can walk together confidently on Dartmoor. Walking is now a complete pleasure and Paddy's recall is great.Happy dogs and owner - happy life.....So grateful to Jamie ( and Louise).

Just wanted to send you a little update. **** is so much sharper on his recalls, even with no e collar on, wanting to stay with me much more and have had loads of compliments on how much calmer he is generally and settles so quickly now and I’m so proud of him.

Just to let you know we had the most amazing session with Jamie this afternoon. I can’t begin to tell you just how constructive it was. I think he’s probably forgotten more about dog training and behaviour than most people will ever know in a lifetime Many Thanks

I didn’t get chance to say a huge Thank you for all the training sessions. I knew from your videos that you were the right man to help me/us- but it surpassed all my expectations.

Just thought I would give you update on how XXXX (black and tan working cocker) is doing. . I have this week taken the e collar off, I have been keeping it on waiting for him to slack on his response to my cues, but I have given up waiting as he has hasn't for weeks now!!! I took him off lead into the pheasant pen at our shoot and he was 100% responsive to stop and recall cues despite his excitement. XXXX is safe living his very best life, free and happy thanks to you, its really appreciated, thank you.

Take the Lead Dog Training since engaging with you, (skills for life and in person) we had our first trip up to the beaches of North Wales last weekend and it was emotional! My beautiful spaniel boys running free in and out of the sea, coming to heel as we headed past fishermen, recalling back from mid seagull chase, not running up to other dogs, both me and them feeling like winners….life as it is meant to be, and so far from the pain and anxiety of last year when I reached rock bottom and wouldn’t take my dogs anywhere but a fenced empty dog park. Thank you- a million times, Thank you.

Thank you so much for yesterday. I learnt a huge amount to put into practice on the heel walking. Yesterdays’ session validated my view that she was a strong lamb/sheep chaser risk. I am beyond grateful to have had the opportunity under your guidance to take proactive, preventative action. I feel emotional about it as we saved her life yesterday if that scenario ever happened in the future and a farmer reached for his gun. Keep lobbying Jamie, keep saving the lives of dogs and livestock, what you do is incredibly important and to experience it first hand is something I’ll be talking about for a long time.

If you’re ever having a bad day, watch these & just know how much you’ve done to help us both, but mostly Hilda ENJOY her life & freedom as it’s intended. I’ll always be some grateful for your advice, support & effort to change our lives & I can never thank you enough. She’s finally behaving without every walk being a stress for us both. I was in the park today with her (an environment that would usually be incredibly stressful), and as we come around the corner out of nowhere a cyclist comes past. There’s no way either of us would’ve seen him before he was right in front of us. The exact type of scenario that would make my heart stop. And you won’t believe what happened next… One command to HEEL and she stopped in her tracks and came back to me without so much as even one bark at the cyclist!! Where she would normally bark and chase him she behaved like an absolute superstar and got the biggest fuss in the world. Your training has been bloody life changing! But also life-saving for her because I always feared for the day she might hurt someone and get pts. THANK YOU!

Jamie, thanks to your training you have helped m to understand better and communicate better with my gorgeous Korthals Griffon, for which I am immeasurably grateful. We both, six months on have benefitted so much from your guidance and training. Today we work together and enjoy the Sussex countryside we live in… harmoniously and of course under control and respectful of those around us and livestock. Hi Jamie, It has been 6 months since we came and spent 2 mornings with you and our GSD Penny. I just wanted to say Thank you for changing my life and hers. We have enjoyed off lead adventures every day since and I honestly don’t think I’ll ever tire of watching her stretch her legs. She now has so much freedom and finally gets to be a dog after 3 years of long lines and secure fields. Tractors, deer and rabbits we see most days are now no issue and I rarely need to use the collar. I can’t imagine how much more fulfilling her life is now and I’m very. Very grateful.

Cannot thank this man enough ! Before coming seeing Jamie my everyday life was a constant stress full of anxiety and worry to just walk my dog anywhere. Had tried all sorts and constantly looked for advice and answers from all corners of the internet and different trainers. I genuinely felt there was no hope. This man has helped me restore my faith in my dog and the life/relationship we actually can have from now on. I cannot wait to keep moving forward with her with his advice to see where it leads and how much she and I can finally start to enjoy a life without that huge lingering stress on us both. Couldn’t ask for a better bloke to help us out either absolute salt of the earth and made the whole experience incredible salute to this man and the work he does. If anyone is struggling with their dog in this way … do not even hesitate! There is a light !
