3 Best Dog Trainers in Leicester, UK

Enrolling my Cocker Spaniel Simba in beginners puppy school with instructor Shane at K9 Education dog training was an excellent decision. The classes, focusing on essential commands like 'leave it,' recall, and impulse control provided a solid foundation. Shane's expertise and patience were evident, making each session enjoyable and effective. The incorporation of 'rest and relaxation’ techniques was a game changer, ensuring a well-rounded learning experience for my pup. Highly recommend for new pet parents wanting a comprehensive educational journey for their pup! Looking forward to joining in all the other classes and some 121 sessions. Sincere thanks to Shane for the invaluable tips and advice and of course to Ernie for being a charming real life example during training sessions.

Had a great time with my dog Ned, attending Shane's Mensa course. It was relaxed, fun and interesting... what a fabulous hour spent with my boy each weed. Of course, my other dog had to gate-crash for the award photo, Tux!!

Thank you Shane for providing us with excellent training for our Coco and Masha. Your training guides are so simple and easy to understand. You have provided us with excellent resources and videos guides. Thank you so much . Highly recommended.

We've recently completed the beginners course with Shane, it's been an amazing 7 weeks! Would definitely recommend. Murphy had a great time in the classes. We'll be back for the advanced course when it's ready. Thanks for having us! - Ryan Reply

Shane’s classes are informative, fun and most importantly his methods are effective. Highly recommended - Jim Reply

Shane, the trainer , was so patient, attentive and readily accessible , whenever the dogs and myself needed his input to help us navigate their reactions to situations. We would never have got to this stage of having both dogs working well together, and playing without this support . I can’t praise it enough.- Theresa B Reply

I want to thank Shane for my final 1-2-1 session yesterday. Despite feeling anxious at the start, I thoroughly enjoyed it, and it completely shifted my mindset. What I thought I needed to learn was actually more about how to best support my dog. Shane offered invaluable tips, from holding the lead properly and positioning my body to manage pulling, to reading my dog’s body language for potential behavioural changes and teaching me to think ahead. I’ve learned so much throughout our sessions and am grateful for all the practical advice I can continue to practice. I’m also excited to book my sons in for 1-2-1 sessions this summer so they can learn some valuable skills too. - Nisha Reply

Shane is incredible. He has given us so many training tips and strategies over the course of this last year. Without him, we wouldn’t have got this far with training our pup, Milo. Shane has been on hand throughout the year; always at the end of the phone to message or to set up our next training session. It has been great to have Shane in our home where he’s been about to show us our next steps. The training has been personalised for us and has been tailored to include all family members. We really do owe Shane so much. - Lisa H

It been an absolute pleasure working with you and your family. Your commitment to that 4 legged gobshite is heart warming (I think my ears have stopped ringing!!!). You've come along way and thats down to your hardwork and wanting the best for Milo.

We take both of our dogs to agility training each week and we did the puppy training and obedience classes too. A great, friendly atmosphere that's really positive for anyone learning from scratch like we were. Julie and Ashley give great advice without being too pushy and we have two very happy, well-behaved dogs. It's a great environment for training as we could easily get them to listen at home when we were practising but struggled when out and about or if other dogs were there to distract them, so being able to practise in a room with other dogs all at the same time was really useful. We look forward to agility each week, it's a fun bonding opportunity and (now that we're a bit better at it) it's great exercise!

I brought my dalmatian to paws on not expecting her to ever be able to do agility. Julie and Ashley really helped us from day 1 taking their time and encouraging us to become a great team. Paws on is a lovely family run friendly business. We have made great friends in our 2 pm slot and take part in the annual dog show they hold which is great fun. I would highly recommend this to anyone wanting to spend time with their dog teaching them something new and exciting.

Fabulous help and support over the years, we have taken all our dogs to be trained/do agility at Paws On. They (we have four) are all trained to a high level and we have taken part in (and won) lots of obedience/ rally O and agility competitions.
