The Latest

That Neil knows his stuff is beyond doubt. It’s obvious right from his first meeting with your dog. But unlike many trainers, he also understands people. That and his generous back-up support make his training not just effective but excellent value for money.

 'We first met Neil when our very lively Springer Spaniel, Harvey; was a young puppy having been recommended by someone we knew who was finding him very helpful in training her Labrador puppy. He certainly helped to change all our lives for the better! 
Harvey immediately responded well to Neil's calm, assertive leadership which showed us just what Harvey was capable of.  We have since worked on a number of things - recall; pulling on the lead; travel sickness; discipline and nutrition and the improvement in Harvey is amazing.  Neil has always focused on coaching us to be cabable dog handlers so that we can fully enjoy Harvey's energy and exuberance and he can be a really happy dog. 
It is a fantastic thing to see someone who has truly found their vocation in life, and Neil certainly has.  We are very grateful to him for his coaching and encouragement and have already recommended him on to others we know.

'Hello my name is Frankie and I would like to say a huge thank you to Neil for helping my owners help me.  He was recommended to us and we had 3 visits training my owners how they can best look after me.  He was always patient with all of us and didn’t mind how often they contacted him for support and advice.  He taught my owners strategies to use and we practiced these in between visits.  I leave my food until instructed; I wait at the bottom of the steps before being invited in to the house.  I love my owners and I think they really enjoy my companionship....thank you Neil for EVERYTHING.   Lots of love and licks Frankie  from St Leonards'

'With Neil's advice and on going support and our work and patience, Hedley is now a much calmer and better behaved dog who is much happier as he knows his boundaries and what we expect.  Both my husband and I are so glad we met Neil and we can now look forward to years of owning a happy dog'

'A big thank you to Neil, for helping me train my much loved Lucy and Josh when he became a demanding teenager, and now we look forward to Neil helping us train Sophie who joins our family soon.We were the ones who needed training, we could not have done any of this without Neil and his expert advice to re thing how we think and act in front of our dogs'

Rod & Angela from Staplecross

'We can not thank Neil enough as without him Basil's story would of been very different. 

Thank you Neil we couldn't of done it without you. ' 

Becky from Eastbourne

'Neil has a talent, a real talent that I have to say I have not seen before.  He is excellent with dogs but at the same time fantastic with us (the dog owner), he will tell you exactly where you are going wrong but will give you the advice on how to correct it - what more could you ask for'

'Eastbourne’s answer to the dog whisperer!! '

"With Neil's help, advice, encouragement and, above all, patience, Callie is becoming a much more manageable and obedient dog. Neil has given us the confidence to control Callie in a way we once did not think would ever be possible!"          Linda & Richard Lee, St Leonards

Mr King was recommended to me and I am very grateful as I have a very strong difficult dog with behavioural problems.  I found Mr King to be very professional, caring and understanding of my dog and myself, and would highly recommend him in the future.

Lesley from Bexhill

'The techniques that Neil demonstrated to us have been very beneficial in training both us and the dog.

We have been very impressed with Neils knowledge and expertise and his professional manner'

Mrs & Mrs Sanson ,  Eastbourne 

'I was desperate for help with my two female puppies who were fighting more and more, I was advised by a number of people to part with one of them.

It only took 3 visits from Neil to solve the problem altogether and even after the first visit they started to tolerate each other again.
