Absolutely delighted with the results, Thank You Steve

We have been having sessions on recall and lead work with Steve for some weeks now. Having seen a few treat trainers in the area previously it was evident either they didn't understand our adolescent labrador or just didn't have Steve's understanding... Read more By Clair, Trevor & Harry

It's like taking an entirely different dog for a walk

My Lab had been attending reward based / force free training with another trainer for over a year - with no discernible results. He still had little or no recall and was a nightmare to take for a walk. Having found Breckland Dog Training via Google (... Read more By Diana Round
