Thank you Alistair for arranging our lesson at short notice. Harla has really been enjoying her new games and tasks. After just a few days the waljing experienxe imoroved ten fold. I would never have believed how much the palm of my hand could have changed my little minx into the little goody 2 shoes that she now is. I only hope that it's not a temporary change!.. We will be back in 6 weeks as you suggested. It was nice of Alistair to suggest 6 weeks instead of the 3 weeks that we wanted to come back!...He is definitely considerate of my pounds rather than his own. 5 Stars for Branxholme Gundogs.

Loved our lesson yesterday. The guidance from Alistair was invaluable. Walked around two fields today with the pup to heel for the first time - didn’t get yanked into a hedgerow once! Great to have confirmation we’re on the right track. Would recommend Alistair in a heartbeat.

I'm not one for posting reviews most of the time but I'm making an exception in writing this.
I have a 10 month old sprocker who it seems has taken on a new identity in the past 4 weeks.
What have I done to Bracken to justify the change in his personality I ask myself ! The answer it seems is nothing as far as Alistair is concerned. Bracken it turns out is your typical sprocker. After just 3 weeks of putting into practice what Alistair preached it looks like I'm getting my old dog back, thanks be to whatever god you abide by. My confidence has grown to the extent that I'm even contemplating getting another dog to give Bracken a companion. I must be stupid!...Thanks again Branxholme Gundogs.

My husband and I have just had an 'Intro' lesson from Alistair wirh our 15 week old springer, Bertie. Having already sampled a group training session for puppies in our local hall I would have to endorse the one2one route as the better option. From working with the lead and recall aspects we quickly saw an improvement even during the lesson. Alistair was able to reassure us with some of our worries which really didn't need to be addressed at this time with Bertie.
Since the lesson we are enjoying Bertie's development, now that we have the confidence that Alistair instilled in us. Hopefully we have soaked in all the knowledge that we gained in the hours lesson, although it lasted well over the hour!, and we look forward to our next lesson probably in 6 to 8 weeks by Alistair's reckoning. Thanks again, John and Rachel, and not forgetting Bertie.
