Tug worked with Sunny and myself on Sunny's pulling on the lead. Tug's easy going nature and immediate gaining of the dog's respect helped us both a great deal. I shall be calling on him for some refresher training for us both.

Tug helped make our Yorkshire Terrier Macey into the lovely member of our family that she is now. At a very young age Tug taught her the basics such as sitting, fetching, laying down and recall.

It became apparent after a couple of sessions with Tug that he was actually training us not our dog! He explained how our behaviour and actions around Indie affected his behaviour and how some small modifications in how we interacted with Indie would completely transform how he behaved….and it worked!

Tug was a godsend to me, I had a young pup and couldn't attend training classes due to commitments at home. Tug would come to my house, or predetermined locations at dates/times convenient to me to train Finn (and myself!).

As first time dog owners taking on a 9 month rescue lab x boxer (Misty), we realised help was needed from the offset. At over 30kg Misty was over-exuberant, badly behaved around people, uncontrollable on lead and not socialised with other dogs.

Tug is an amazing find for any dog owner! He really helped me to get my lovely but boisterous, big dog under control. Within a few sessions I no longer felt that my dog was taking me for a walk!
