The Dog Guardian

you are a great trainer. learned a lot from your videos., can you upload more pls? Sandy malaysia

inside knowledge about dogs combined with kindness

A slightly different perspective that makes sense!

This is the only book you will ever need to learn how to communicate effectively with your dog and understand their needs and behaviours.

Loving the book and the videos. Feel so much more confident about going to get our puppy tomorrow.

Today we invited Nigel Reed into our home to meet our beautiful yet nervous of people dog. Buying Nigel’s book was the first step to us gaining a true understanding of our dogs needs. An actual consultation and lesson with Nigel enhanced our ability to communicate and provide the needs of our dog resulting in a much calmer and confident dog. We cannot recommend Nigel’s book and training highly enough! Thank you once again Nigel More...

Can't recommend enough! Had a one to one session and just finished the book which has helped reinforce everything we learnt on the day and more. Puts everything you ever thought you knew into place. Having had two other 'behaviourists' and tried probably far too many other methods to no avail in the 4 years I have had my rescue with some serious issues and wish I had discovered The Dog Guardian sooner, but, has proven that you can indeed teach an old dog new tricks! Solving a multitude of issues for our 3 adopted dogs all rolled into a common core. Follow up support is also excellent to help with any follow up issues. More...

Excellent book. Easy to understand and put into practice.

Great book. Very useful and lots of good examples

Tremendous book and videos. Absolutely first class. Nigel starts with "Why" instead of "What". So that we properly understand our dogs' motivations. And therefore correctly address unacceptable behaviour. Guarantee if you read this book you will have many "light bulb" moments! Essential reading... More...

The book is excellent! It has really helped with my dog and his 'protective' barking. Thank you!

The best dog trainer/gardian I could recommend! Nigel transformed my anxious, over-excitable naughty dog into a calm, well behaved and relaxed companion. He truly understand and loves them. Worth every penny. Thanks again Nigel! More...

Love this book. It all makes a lot of sense and uses techniques both I and my dog Josh feel comfortable with. Thank you it's a great read. My dog is not aggressive but gets over excited around other dogs. I am adopting the same approach as you suggest for aggressive dogs and it seems to be working? More...

I just finished reading the book. Finally, I know the asnwers for so many questions that it was difficult to find for me. I hope, I can understand my dog better now. Money well spent!

Nigel is one of the most patient people I know. He was instrumental in helping me with my first puppy a GSP (what as I thinking) who suffered separation anxiety and all round bad behaviour including pulling etc. He did an amazing job with her- I could probably have done with more training on MYSELF. Cannot recommend him highly enough. More...

This book is full of practical information and guidance to help any dog owner understand their dog more and ensure it is content and therefore well behaved.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!! Such a useful book with easy to follow steps you can put into practice immediately. Once we started we saw improvements straight away. By day 3 our rescued american bulldog Lola, who pulled like a train previously was happily trotting along by my side on a loose lead... She's also now walking passed dogs on the other side of the street with barely a glance something that would have previously seen her lunging to get to them... can't wait to see what we can achieve by day 7! If you have a dog – get this book! More...

I bought this book before we got our rescue pup and it was money well spent and has been a total saver in terms of trying to understand our dog and give us the confidence to consider his needs properly. We all still have a long way to go but the advice in the book is clear, practical and really helpful and we are making steady progress. As a result of buying the book, we started reading the blog and find the information really accessible and easy to follow. I cannot recommend this book enough. More...

Just finished reading Nigel’s book and as a 49 year old and owner of a number of dogs over the years I’m now more in tune with being a better leader now. Such a good book.

Went to the lecture and am reading the book, already I've had answers to some problems even training classes couldn't solve. Did two techniques I learnt and now Reggies eating his dinner well plus he's getting better on the lead . It covers how your dog see' s the world and gives a true understanding of why their behaviour occurs . Finally an approach that works on many levels. More...

Nigel´s book changed my perspective totally. I am much calmer now and thats good news for my rescue dog Luca, too. I recommend the book to everybody who wants to learn to speak dog :)

I've just finished the book. It has provided me with a greater understanding of my headstrong rescue. He is as bright as a button, I am the one that needed the help! I just want to make his life as happy as I possibly can and allow him to fulfil his immense potential.Thank you so much for filling in the blanks. More...

Today we had a 1-2-1 session with Nigel who has taught us all the basics on how to make our new rescued 5 month old puppy Roxy a well behaved and happy dog. He was great teaching the kids how to deal with Roxy and she has already stopped jumping up on them. We will keep it up. Thank you so much Nigel! More...

The Dog Guardian crew is amazing! Nigel who I will be forever grateful to introduce me to this awesome training method, Stephanie who always took great care of my dog when we were away and of course Rex the most handsome and wonderful dog. :-)
I highly recommend Nigel's services.
With much gratitude to you all at Dog Guardian Team. :-)
