When I first spoke to Jamie on the phone, I explained that sessions would need to be after 5pm after the first session, no problem apparently. Second session, didnt turn up and didnt get in contact. Chased him to see what was going on, he got back the next day to say he had no phone on him. Rearranged, second session, turned up 2 hours late. Needless to say we wont be continuing More...

Very happy with the first visit - looking forward to the next one. Jamie was very confident and practical with his advice.
Dog Training
My three dogs were out of control on the lead. Jamie showed us how to take control of them with simple steps. Can't believe the difference. We can actually walk them all together now and stop to talk to people ( even those with dogs !). His advice and tips have been invaluable to us. Would definitely recommend! Gill Ribchester More...

I contacted jamie as i had just rescued my 3 year old staffie sansa !
I was a little unsure of how she would take to training as she has dog issues and hasnt been really socialised,needless to say she took to him straight away and i was amazed when he got her to walk right next to his dog emma he has given me some great training tips on desensitising her and teaching her obedience would recommend him to anyone

Jamie spent three hours with our Lab and Cockapoo covering various issues we had. What a difference already. We have learnt a lot too and it's a big relief to know how to manage training and the correct commands. Highly recommended!

Jamie came to our house twice to help train our rottie puppy. Today we took him on his first walk and he was amazing both off and on the lead walking to heal and returning to us quickly when we called him. This was due to us practicing the training Jamie had shown us. Thanks Jamie More...

Quick response. Looking forward to dealing with Jamie
Joanne
Jamie was great at helping me train my alaskan malamute. I had one to one sessions and now i go to the group classes. Me and my dog alfie have passed our bronze and silver good citizen award and are now working towards getting our gold. The difference in my dog is phenomenal. Before training he was very hard work, pulling on the lead when walking and running away when off the lead. I cant fault alfie now, he is so well behaved and i am so proud of everything he has achieved and that is all thanks to jamie. More...

Jamie helped us with a re-homed Labradoodle that was a problem when left and aggressive with other dogs. He gave us lots of tips and ideas to handle difficult situations and seemed to bond with our dog almost instantly. No hesitation in recommending him. More...

If I ever meet a new dog on a walk or in the park that looks like it could do with a bit of training I always subtly suggest that the dog would "love training classes" and recommend Take Control Dog Training. I have tried a couple of different classes and found that the methods used at Take Control to be perfect for me and my dog 'Ben'. Take Control have a no nonsense, firm but fair approach to dog training which let's your dog know who's the boss. Jamies advice on a number of different Dog related aspects, such as canine care and socialisation, not just training, have also proved invaluable. More...
What do you love most about your job?
I have a passion for dogs and the training of them. It's something that started as a hobby 20 years ago and has developed into my dream job. I most enjoy seeing the progression of the dogs from a blank canvas as a puppy into a confident, well behaved balanced dog and seeing the difference this can make to the owners day to day lives.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I wanted to share the knowledge I have gained over my years owning and working with dogs and feel that with the right training every dog owner and dog can reach their full potential.
Why should our clients choose you?
I have trained dogs in many different disciplines over the years ranging from obedience to agility to gundog trials. I understand that the same methods don't work for every dog and so adapt my training to suit the owner and dog I'm working with. I am a patient trainer that wants you to succeed and achieve your goals when it comes to your dog. As I tell all my clients although we may only spend 1 or 2 hours a week together training I am always available on the phone for advice or support when it's needed.
