Paw Patrol - Training and Behaviour
& Small, group walks
1:1 Dog behaviour & training
Force free dog behaviour and training
Ex Police force but we do not use force
Your dog isn't a project. They're a member of the family
We are here to build a bond between you.
We're not interested in fancy obedience. We're not training for the ring, the agility course or a competition
We're interested in the Tuesday evening when the doorbell goes and everyone can stay calm.
The walk you stop dreading.
The dog who settles at your feet while the kids do their homework, because they feel safe enough to.
That's built on trust and trust. Get that bit right and the training follows far more easily than most people expect.

The Challenge: Labelled for "nipping" the kids
Separation distress
Lead Pulling
Destructive behaviour
Toileting inside the house
The Reality: A busy adolescent dog whose subtle body language was missed leaving him no choice but to shout
Most training plans fail for reasons that have nothing to do with the dog
You've probably been handed a plan before.
It didn't fail because you weren't committed. It failed because nobody asked what your week actually looks like.
We build plans that fit real lives and real households. If you've got fifteen minutes and a hallway, we'll work with fifteen minutes and a hallway.
We find the skill deficit and we teach the skills your dog needs.
No one size fits all. Tailored training for you and your dog.
How we work
Real lives - real households
Your dog: health, breed traits, history, what they genuinely find rewarding, how they learn, what tips them over the edge.
Your household : who's in it, how old they are, what the daily routine looks like, where you walk, what time you honestly have.
How you learn : some people want the science and the reasoning. Some want a short video and three bullet points. Some need someone standing alongside them doing it. All of those are fine. Only one of them works for you.
Then we build the plan. Dog and human together, or it doesn't hold.
"Matt is very understanding and doesn't judge. He helped me with loose lead walking and recall. I suffer with anxiety and he makes you feel at ease and doesn't force you to do anything you don't feel comfortable with. 100% recommend"
Face to face Consultations
We offer dedicated 1:1 behavioural consultations throughout Newark, Grantham, Retford and Lincoln areas.
We also travel further afield if necessary.
Owing to our Policing background and behavioural specialism (both human and canine) we frequent London.
For our discreet clients requiring specialist support in Central & West London, we schedule regular private client visits covering Kensington, Belgravia, Mayfair, Fulham and Hampstead.
With our background in law enforcement, we guarantee total discretion, non-disclosure compliance and safeguarding for high-profile households and public figures.
