Use the scroll bar on the left to read Jacob's Story.

Jacob is a 7 year old Rotweiller cross Lab. I adopted him 4 years ago as his elderly owner could no longer cope with him.

Jacob was very under socialised when he came to live with me and walking him was a disaster.
He had a very severe case of fear aggression towards other dogs and if he came across another dog while out he was more than ready to fight if needed. This made walking him a very difficult task as he would lunge and bark at any dog. He is a strong boy and was quite the puller on the lead, I did not feel I had control over him and he never enjoyed his walks as he could not be let off for a run and was constantly on edge.

No one could see the gentle giant in him that I could and he was looked down on by family members and friends. I felt for Jacob and knew that something needed to be done to help him have a more fufilling life.

After 6 months of connection training, head collar training, re-call work, safe dog mixes and a lot of reassurance, Jacob has come a long way. He is now enjoying off lead walks with his new doggie pals, stress-free on lead walks and has become a true loyal companion.

Working with Jacob has helped me expand my methods of training and after experiencing it first hand, I can empathise with other owners.

Jacob will never be fully trusted around other dogs as some issues can be too in grained to be illiminated completely. However, it is not always a case of solving the problem but more being able to manage it.

Training your dog can be a challenge but you wont find a more rewarding feeling than seeing the results that have benefit from yours and your dogs hard work.
