3 Best Dog Trainers in Preston, UK

Willow has been going to K9ofLC B.E.S.T. puppy class since she was 10 weeks old ,she is now just 7 months of age. The knowledge and understanding that we have gained over this time has been a huge asset in the development and welfare of our puppy , who is turning out to be the dog we have always wished for. To be able to socialise your dog in a safe controlled environment and to gain some insight into the psychology of dogs helps massively in becoming a responsible caring dog owner , whilst having a highly enjoyable time doing so. I can only praise all of the staff and helpers for making our time there so very rewarding , thank you, Helen /Neil/Willow.

I have been attending training with my reactive 11 month old Doberman for around 6 weeks now. The change in Klaus has been phenomenal really, from not being able to be in the training area without lunging and barking at other dogs at any distance. To playing and interacting with Les and Donna's dog off the lead with no reactivity at all. From the first one to one Les and Donna were welcoming and understanding of the issues I was having with Klaus and set out a clear training plan which best suited his needs and my schedule. From day one, Les has improved me as a dog owner and handler and I now have confidence when out with Klaus that any situation I go into with him I will know what to do. The training all really culminated in a socialisation session in which Klaus was able to join in, and really benefit from being around a number of different breeds, which he hadn't managed to do for some months. Whilst we still have a long way to go in our training, I could not recommend Les and the rest of the guys at K9 of LC enough. They have changed the relationship I have with Klaus and I am incredibly grateful to them for helping me.

Great dog’s training that builds not only dog’s confidence but most importantly, the owners’ confidence. Amazing atmosphere where you feel welcome and not judged. We used 1:2:1 sessions and classes and our dog (pocket bully) has made a great progress after very short period of time. We love Les, who has a vast knowledge and experience and great personality and sense of humour, which makes the class very enjoyable as a bonus.

Attended the 4 week puppy foundation course & was so pleased with Dawn's methodology, knowledge & the experience that I booked on for an extension for a further 8 weeks. Dawn is someone with genuine experience & isn't someone posing as a dog trainer, I love that her own dogs aren't robots and can be cheeky, allowing their personalities & characters, whilst having incredibly well behaved & obedient dogs. You get out what you put into this. I think her puppy classes are a little more complex than your standard, offering life skills, alternative tricks & explanations as to why we might shape a behaviour. Dawn is approachable, knowledgeable & a true dog lover, patient & fun! There is a wide range of classes on offer, which I am sure I will look at attending.!!!!!!!!!!!

As a business we've hosted Dawn from Preston Trick Dogs to the Scottish Borders for the last 3 year for Tricks & Heelwork to Music workshops and they have always been absolutely fantastic. Dawn works with each team to make sure they fully understand everything. Always a sell out and always so much fun for both the dogs and owners!

This our fourth attempt at finding a suitable dog trainer for our slightly reactive border collie and I am pleased to relay that the trainer is knowledgeable, understanding about our collie and provides interesting and entertaining sessions, which even our collie now enjoys.
