PAWS AT THE JUNCTION LTD /THE DOGFATHER DEVON REVIEWS
It was our 1st visit after a recommendation from another god owner we met on the boat trio to Spain, well I cannot recommend this place enough, we drive for 4 hours from Northampton to Plymouth to get the boat to Spain, as the dog facilities on the boat are awful, we was always looking for some who take to dogs before they got on the dreaded boat, well folks, we found the perfect place, just a few mins away from the ferry, this place was exceptional..... the paddock booked was just for us, even drove the car into it, locked the gates and the dogs were free to run about in the enclosure! I have 2 giant schnauzers and 1 is not so good off lead at the moment as he's still a delinquent male lol! So here he had the freedom off lead without worrying about other dogs, the owner is friend and helpful, we will abbe returning here at every opportunity if we go on holiday via ferry... .....thank you so very much!.
I took my German Shepherd and 3 of her 5 month old pups here. They had lots of fun chasing the ball, having a good sniff and getting in the pool…we came away with 4 very happy dogs!! Great facility for a fantastic price, we will definitely be visiting again!.
Lovely location, staff on site to let you in and out of the paddock. Ideal safe place to allow our puppies to run off lead and practice recall. Will definitely be booking again. Highly recommend.

K9 HANDLING & TRAINING REVIEWS
We have a large GSD who we thought was aggressive. He would bark and try to bite people entering our house. Walking him was a nightmare with other dogs around. Steve came round and showed us how to control our pet. Within 10 mins our dog was at ease and not barking after a few easy techniques. Steve also went for a walk with each of us and again with simple techniques and commands there was no pulling and few growls at other dogs. I can't say how much I appreciated Steves visit and instruction. Our dog will need my wife and I to continue instilling the lessons learnt. We are a lot more confident that the future will be a lot happier.
Had a great 2 hour training session earlier this week with my dog bella, she developed behaviour issues around other dogs but after one session she has hugely improved and walks are alot less stressful now. Thankyou for your help!.
Had Steve over to help us with our 7-month old puppy. Like any puppy, he’s very easily excited and things can get a bit manic when we aren’t sure how to deal with certain scenarios. Steve gave us the tools to handle his lead-pulling and jumping up to people (as well as many other little behavioural habits). Already there’s been a huge improvement and we have a lot more confidence in how to handle things from now on.

THINKING DOG REVIEWS
We have had a 1-1 with Cassie and attended her 6 week puppy training course, all I can say is wow! I’m sure Cassie is a dog whisperer! From the moment our pup met her he couldn’t do enough to follow her cues and please her. Cassie’s knowledge, experience and obvious love for dogs shines through whenever you’re with her and her bubbly personality and sense of humour put you at immediate ease. As first time dog owners we have a lot to learn but Cassie’s encouragement and support has given us greater confidence to hopefully develop a happy and confident little dog.
Cassie is amazing, she is a true dog guru! Her training is fun and based on solid knowledge and experience. She has had such a positive effect on our dog Bernie. I can not recommend her highly enough.
With Cassie you get nothing but a fantastic Service! Goes above and beyond to help you. You receive excellent feedback on the task/'s you are trying to achieve, without putting too much pressure on you. After all it is the owner who needs the training.
