Hanne Grice Pet Training & Behaviour

Having just completed "Stage 3" of our puppy training classes I would like to say a huge "thank you" to Hanne and the team. I can't express how amazing these classes have been. Bonnie has thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and whilst the classes have been enjoyable and fun, we have also come out of them with a fantastic understanding of how to get the best from our dog, Bonnie. I visited other puppy training classes and although the cost was the same the difference in the quality of support, guidance and knowledge was outstanding. If you're thinking of training classes you won't get better than Hanne. More...

This lady is an absolute magician with dogs. Our pup was incredibly poorly this year and wouldnt eat or drink, and thanks to some wonderful advice from Hanne, we managed to get her eating again, and she is now back to her normal bouncy self. Hanne you are brilliant!

We have a particularly energetic cocker spaniel and Hanne's advice has been invaluable since we first got him (advice both during class and on email in between). We're now on puppy stage 3 and all the hard work is really paying off. Bennie is now a much calmer and well behaved pup, and loves doing tricks. Couldn't recommend Hanne highly enough. More...

Hanne has been extremely supportive and helpful on the two occasions we've sought her advice. She brings a level of expertise to dog behaviour we've not found anywhere else and has always been extremely kind and responsive. We'd have no hesitation in recommending her – she's a star. More...

It's been a nearly year now since I adopted my dog from a tierheim in Frankfurt, Germany. I was told very clearly by the workers that the dog I wanted was aggressive towards all other dogs and sometimes the same around strangers. Despite these warnings, I adopted him (now named Archie) and started what I knew would be a long and probably difficult journey. As Herffordshire is my original home I go there quite often to visit family and this was how I came to meet Hanne.

Recommended through an old friend Hanne had agreed to work with me despite me living in Germany. She asked all the normal questions about Archie's background (although I only knew what the tierheim had told me) but she was also keen to know everything about my daily routines, my home set-up and more importantly the triggers which would often result in Archie's 'aggressive' behaviour.

I was lucky enough to see Hanne in person when I popped back to England and within minutes I already knew I was working with an extremely experienced and professional dog trainer. She observed and pointed out so many little things I hadn't noticed about Archie's behaviour and gave me such simple but effective corrective measures. She worked with the both of us in the garden and taught me how to use treats and words to distract Archie and gain his full focus. We even worked with a 'pretend' so we could tackle Archie's biggest issues.

Since being back in Germany I have continue to keep in touch with Hanne and have been fortunate to Skype and telephone when necessary. She has transformed Archie in so many positive ways and I have become much more confident as his owner.

A year down the line and Archie has many dog friends and is a soft touch with all my friends and neighbours. He just needed some love, time and patience.

I would definitely recommend Hanne and her walk the dog team to help anyone who believes they also have a 'difficult' dog! More...

Hanne Grice is quite simply as good as it gets. Hanne has been helping us with our dogs for over 5 years now. She's been there along the way as our pups have gone through puppyhood, then adolescence and onto middle-age. Hanne is a rare combination of expertise and deep learning. She not only has years of rich experience of working with dogs, she is also extremely well versed in research and theory of animal behaviour . This sets her apart from others. The other key to Hanne's success is that she "gets" people and knows that dogs can only succeed if owners do the right thing. She's a wonderful coach, mentor, supporter, and champion. Do yourself a huge favour, work with Hanne and don't bother with the rest! More...

After just one session with Hanne, my husband and I have seen a huge change in Boris, our Cockapoo puppy. (Well, more like we're now doing the right thing and he's responding like a champ! ) Hanne really got to know us, our daily schedule and our concerns, then addressed them and gave us an action plan as well as lots of reading to help. So glad she was recommended to me and I will recommend her too to others without hesitation! Already looking forward to our next session! Thanks Hanne xx More...

Had a phone consultation with Hanne today. Whilst I haven't used her services as I'm based in a different part of the country, her vast and professional knowledge of her field is very apparent. She was able to reference scientific evidence with ease, and clearly loves what she does. She was gave me some brilliant advice and some quick fixes on some issues i've been experiencing that helps me to understand my dogs behaviour much better, which means I'm sure I can rehabilitate and train him much more effectively. Thank you for taking the time to chat Hanne! More...

Great class, really engaging, and the progress we made is rewarding for both puppy and myself. Definitely want to do Stage 3 and wish I had started with Hanne earlier.

Such a fun and positive experience... have been to other puppy classes and found this stage 2 course refreshing, engaging and so rewarding! We have learnt so much to practice between classes and continue on with after the course. Hanne sends you comprehensive notes from each class which will be particularly useful for reference as time passes. We are already looking forward to Stage 3 when the light returns! Thank you Hanne... you are amazing! More...

I thoroughly recommend Hanne’s training classes . I’m just finishing Puppy Course 1 and have learnt so much. As a first time puppy parent I was starting from scratch and both myself and Tashi have loved the sessions! Thank you so much

I can't recommend Hanne Grice enough!

We have a 9 month old Whippador puppy. She's got such a friendly, loving personality but she could be quite a handful with jumping up at strangers and visitors. We dabbled in some training but we struggled to be consistent and didn't really have a structured plan to follow so we were getting pretty inconsistent results.

We were recommended to Hanne by a friend. Hanne was able to fit us in very quickly and we had a one to one session and then joined the 6 week Stage 2 (Junior) course.

I can't tell you how much Cody's behaviour has improved over the past 6 weeks!

She is calmer, happier, and really loves being trained. We didn't realise how quickly she was able to learn new behaviours until Hanne gave us the confidence in her and in ourselves. So 6 weeks in, and we have just finished our graduation class and our little Cody was a superstar! She won fastest outdoor recall and got 3rd place overall.

Thank you so much Hanne and Emma. Can't wait for stage 3! Cody will be in her element..... :) More...
