M P Dog Training

Been amazing - have done 6 sessions for my dog who was showing signs of anxiety and aggression. Dog is now back to happy self and so much better trained. Very helpful and great direction. Highly recommend. More...

Mark has really helped us with our 8 month old Xl Bully male. He was a nightmare on walks and would jump up at people. After a few lessons with Mark our dog now listens and is responding to our aids. I can't thank this man enough for helping us with our fur baby. More...

Mark was great with Rosie my Cocker spaniel. We worked on lead pulling and barking at other dogs and people, Rosie was very reactive and I have seen a great improvement after each lesson. Thanks again Mark 😊

Dog training with Mark has been a huge success for my energetic vocal labrador Mabel. Since training with Mark Mabel has started listening to me a lot more and is a totally different dog on lead walks! Initially I contacted him to help with her barking and I now have some great techniques to manage it and her barking has reduced dramatically! The lead training worked in just one session and Mabel hardly pulls at all on lead now. Mark is a very relaxed trainer and his techniques are simple and easy to understand, even better Mabel really enjoys the sessions!! More...

Mark is a fantastic dog trainer! He is extremely knowledgable and skilled. My spaniel Scooby used to me drag me down the street but now he walks right beside me - it’s completely changed our walking experience!

We’ve had a really great experience with Mark so far training our cockapoo rescue. We’ve had three sessions with him and in each Mark’s been understanding, patient and very clear in his instruction. In the first session we got our previously pull-y cockapoo walking nicely on lead in about 15 minutes! It was incredible to see. He’s given us brilliant, easy-to-follow advice, and generally lent a sympathetic and insightful ear as we’ve discussed some of the challenges we face day to day. Would highly recommend Mark for anyone struggling with their pooch’s behaviour. You won’t regret it! More...

Mark provided lots of practical advice and explained everything patiently to help me with my feisty one year old chihuahua-Jack Russell. I definitely recommend his services. More...

I’ve only had two or three lessons with Mark but, the impact the lessons have had on my very reactive rescue is phenomenal! Mark is a true magician with dogs. He has been able to reach my dog in a way another trainer I tried could not. I saw improvements in her from the very first lesson with Mark. Two lessons later, she was walking at heel, no longer pulling, super obedient in the home, and, best of all, even walks at heel without a lead, for short distances! I'm stunned, and so, so, pleased. She's like a different dog, and now, with her improved behaviour, can play in the park with other dogs and can even be left off lead because her recall has improved massively! Mark's instructions are clear and tailored to what the dog needs. He explains the dog's behaviour in a way that is not just easy to understand, but also helps with comprehending what needs to be done to work with the dog. He is super helpful with any and all queries, at any time, and has brilliant solutions that work for any issues. The credit for my dog's behaviour goes completely to Mark! I look forward to continuing my dog's training with Mark and highly, highly recommend him. More...

Mark was really helpful and very patient (with me and the dogs!). He gave me some really useful tips and ideas. I’ve seen a huge difference less than 24hrs after Marks visit. Thank you so much!

Mark has transformed our dogs or maybe I should say us as owners. We rehomed an adult female lurched Ani in September, who had no re training and had never lived inside a house. She ran everywhere! 8 months on she is now calm, walks at heel and even waits at the bottom of the stairs until she is allowed to go up. Our other dog Louis, a male whippet was quite barky with other dogs and used to try to pull us across the road! Mark worked with him and took him on a walk with his large husky Keira and another large Alsatian. Louis now doesn’t bat an eyelid at other dogs. It’s a joy walking our dogs now. Mark has a wonderful way with dogs and owners alike. He is organised and punctual. Highly recommend him. More...

We have a very loving but very noisy / over protective / bitey miniature dachshund who is very unpredictable when we’re out on walks or have friends over to our home. We desperately needed Mark’s help, especially with a baby on the way we were very anxious about how Bruno would behave. Mark has taught us how to introduce Bruno to new people, as well as what to do when Bruno barks and how to make him stop. We will continue our sessions with Mark, we always come away feeling confident and full of knowledge! Mark has also been there over text for me when I’ve had a bit of a meltdown over Bruno’s behaviour! He helped reassure me and made me feel a lot better about the situation. Thanks mark! More...

Thank you Mark for all your help with our Cavapoo puppy!

After trying a few classes for our two anxious and reactive puppies, and been told we should seriously consider giving up one of the siblings, we were recommended Mark.
He worked with us and the two puppies every week for almost six months, never giving up and staying very positive. His calm nature provided us with the confidence to keep going.
From having to walk them separately, and away from all other dogs, Mark was able to help them (and us) to progress to the stage where they could walk in the parks with other dogs.
Thanks Mark for your patience and dedication.

Mark was very helpful with our puppy and the introduction to our cat :)

Mark knows his stuff, from the moment he walks in he is teaching your dog and you at the same time. Our puppy has made massive improvements thanks to Mark.

We have a cockapoo who is having some issues we’ve been putting up with for some time and burying our heads in the sand.
I found Mark and am so grateful.
He has a wonderful personality that makes him easy to relate to. He explains everything really well and we practice scenarios for training which we implement over the week.
Our dog is responding very well.
It’s been easy to make appointment times that suit our busy schedule.
We are happy so is our cockapoo. More...

Mark was fantastic!!!
Saw his reviews online first- and wow!
Mum had an hours session on “pulling on the lead” and within 20 minutes on route to park not pulling on lead! ! Mum said his technique was spot on and really appreciated coming to my area for the training as that’s were we struggle the most.
Not any more!!! Hahaha

See you again mark 👍👍👍👍 More...

Mark came to help with our 18 month old mini schnauzer. He was friendly and approachable. This is our first dog and dog training is new to me but he was able to make it very simple. He responded to messages promptly attended punctually and behaved professionally. His techniques worked amazingly- and he explained the rationale and do’s and don’t clearly. He responded to my messages to clarify points I needed help with. I would definitely ask him back if I need help in the future and would have no reservations recommending him! More...

Could not fault Mark, the quality of training has been paramount to the growth of both myself and the k9s at home. Mark is punctual, well-spoken and kind. Keep up the good work!

Having tried other behaviourists and trainers and not doing very well, I was very pleased to find Mark.
He has helped me tremendously with my 3 year old German Shepherd’s recall, behaviour, reactivity and obedience. Even more than that, he has shown me where I was going wrong and how to be consistent. Thank you so much, I just wish I had found you earlier! More...

Had a massive issue with with 2/6 dogs fighting in the home(bichon frise & Giant schnauzer). The Bichon was the issue, I would call myself an experienced dog owner( also a dog groomer) but becky is a challenging dog, being very smart she is always one step ahead. I have been to numerous Trainers and becky has even been to boot camp. Becky was a menace and actually was ruining my life. She barked at other dogs, kids, the elderly, screamed continuously, and just a dominant dog. Also attacking our elderly dogs trying to kill them if they were poorly. Becky is not food orientated so training her is challenge. Everyone had had enough of Becky and I was constantly getting nagged so I called Mark on a limb, hoping he could help? He assured me if I put the work in, I'd get there. After around 5 sessions with Mark and putting some bloody hard work into Becky, she has literally reformed. She is a sweet angel! Thanks Mark! I cant quite believe we beat Becky! You have actually changed my life as it was hell at home...the dogs fighting...everyone nagging at me. Going for a walk was pure stress as I never knew what stunt Becky was going to pull next. Mark is informative and knows hes stuff. He is a fantastic dog trainer with proper hands on experience! He does what he says and is very punctual. Hes help has changed my families life and Becky's from being dumped outside battersea! I would highly recommend Mark, I will continue to do so to anyone who needs help with a dog of theirs. If he fixed my Becky he can help you! More...

Mark is really Good trainer. I took 3 sessions for my GSD puppy with basic behavioural lessons. I must say there are definitely some good takeaways from his lessons that has been helpful setting up the foundation in my puppy. Looking forward to lot more sessions with Mark for my growing GSD to make him best family guard dog. More...

My partner and I had never owned a dog before and required a lot of guidance and advice for our miniature Dachund Remi. Knowing that the breed can be very stubborn and hard to train we knew we was going to be up against it. However from lesson one Mark showed his extensive knowledge in dog training and general day to day care and little Remi began following demands within the first hour. 7 months being a pawrent and following marks training and advice, Remi is on his way to proving that not all Dachund’s bark relentlessly at anything and everything 😁

Thanks so much Mark, would highly recommend. More...

We used Mark to help train our young Jack Russell pup back in 2021 and we've kept in touch ever since. He's patient, listens well to understand your issues and is clear in what you have to do if you really want results. He helped us with everything from puppy and crate training through "settling" while we're busy, to walking nicely on the lead. Mark is extremely knowledgeable and he really wants to help you and your dog. Thoroughly nice chap too and very well-priced. Can't recommend him highly enough. More...

Mark has been absolutely fantastic! We couldn't be happier with how the girls have progressed and more impressively, how we've progressed as owners! He's articulate, educated and employs sophisticated dog training techniques.

Ours were dog aggressive on leads - after one lesson they still are but ENTIRELY in control.

We've learnt lessons to help them reduce anxiety and improve immensely our understanding of dog behaviours.

He's approachable and flexible. He offers practical advice on equipment, treats and day to day activities. He even hosted us at his own house when the time was right to conduct training with his own dogs.

We couldn't be more pleased with Mark and will keep using him. More...

Myself and my partner where completely new to puppy training and so needed to find a reliable and helpful trainer to set us on the right track. After looking at reviews we decided that Mark would be a great choice and he has definitely delivered on that! He was able to teach us some great strategies and supported us to tailor our lessons on what we needed and wanted to focus on. Highly recommend and we look forward to a few more sessions with him! - Thanks again Mark More...

I’ve only had two lessons with Mark and the change in my very reactive dogs is astounding. He is clear with his instructions and is very helpful with queries. The lessons most definitely work and my dogs have come on leaps and bounds from where they were in just a few weeks when it felt hopeless beforehand. I look forward to continuing their training. More...

Look no further, Mark is a wizard. Within just 1 session he made my dog go from pulling badly on a leash to walking nicely by my side with no pulling! I have a 8-months old doberman pincher who is nearly 40kg so imagine how strong he is... Walks were a nightmare and now we enjoy them so much. Highly recommend hiring Mark to help you with your pups! More...

Mark is a great trainer and my dogs both love and respect him. Can’t recommend him enough! Thank you Mark I will be keeping in touch, not just as a trainer but as a friend

Before I found Mark my "stubborn" corgi was not cooperating on walks and refused to move. Just one lesson with Mark teaching me the basic principles and a few independent sessions later and he's a different dog. Would definitely recommend Mark!

We initially started with the puppy package and were so pleased with what we learned and the great progress our puppy made that we continued with weekly 1:1 lessons for several weeks. We have a Working Cocker Spaniel who is full of energy. Mark helped us to harness that energy with training and he is such a happy and well behaved dog. People constantly complimented us on how well behaved he is. We were able to put in healthy boundaries that keep us all happy. He has never chewed anything he shouldn’t I.e shoes or furniture. There are so many benefits to having a professional dog trainer like Mark who has given us a very strong foundation to build on. We look forward to many fun and happy years with our dog. Thank you Mark!

If you are looking for a talented, professional and friendly dog trainer who is passionate about his work and all the dogs he meets then Mark is just the person you need. More...

Mark is absolutely amazing! As soon as we had our puppy we called mark straight away and he's taught us how to calm him down and to housebreak within a week! Evrrutime we had any trouble with our pup he's always only a text away and has given us really great advices.
We called him again to help with socialising our pup as he's a bit aggressive and within the hour, he turned from a growling excited pup to playing with his lovely huskie! Highly recommend!! More...

Mark has helped train my GS who is a stubborn 3 year old male. Just in the first 2/3 sessions I saw a massive difference in my dog. Mark takes his time to make sure you grasps and fully understand your dogs behaviour. This helped so I could understand my dog and be able to use those little signs to train him. Honestly, mark has changed our family life. Thank you! More...

I first contacted Mark after searching for dog trainers on google, to see if he could help with my 4 year old French bulldog Phil.

We were having issues with pulling on the lead, disliking other dogs and getting excited around a new born baby in the family. After three sessions we now have one different dog who does not pull on the lead, improving around dogs and does not pay any attention to the baby.

We cant believe the change in Phil and can not thank Mark enough for his help. More...

I have a 6 month old Dobie and she needed leadership training and walk training. Mark is very professional and helpful with a lot of great tips and knowledge about dog’s behaviour. With a few sessions I can already see a very good improvement in my dog’s behaviour. Will highly recommend Mark! More...

Mark is a great trainer and my dogs both love and respect him. Can’t recommend him enough! Thank you Mark I will be keeping in touch, not just as a trainer but as a friend

You owe it to your dog, yourself and the general public to get your dog properly trained. Mark is the man to help you do this. He can assist with any breed and size of dog and any problem, whether it's puppy training, barking, anxiety, aggression, lead-walking/tugging on the lead...
He will take the time to assess your dog and you, and will devise a plan, with clear instructions and advice. But you need to follow the advice, dog training is for life and you need to keep it up, there are no miracle instant cures. Mark helped us with our pure-breed Fox Warren Jack Russell when others could only take it so far. To say Mark has transformed our dog and therefore our lives, is an understatement. Now on daily walks, our pup gets compliments galore, as he trots to heel and sits automatically at the kerb. If you need help with your dog, contact Mark and do it today. More...

Mark is very down to earth on got on very quickly with him! I have a puppy Maltipoo who was difficult to walk and constantly being distracted, as soon as Mark had some training with her she immediately improved from just the first lesson! Was hugely impressed with Mark and will definitely be using him again! Highly recommend him! More...

We had three sessions with Mark for our one year old rescue pup for separation anxiety, leadership & walking on lead. His instructions were clear and he provided explanations for the approaches so we could understand our dog’s behaviour. We found the difference in such a short space of time unbelievable! Our pup is now more responsive, calmer and quieter. And I believe happier too! Highly recommend. More...

Amazing training, very friendly and made lots of progress on the first session!

We have a labernard called Cooper who weighs 35kg and is super strong. So walking him is an absolute nightmare! He pulls and controls us to the point we have given up walking him. He barks at any noise he hears or anyone he sees, we needed help. We called Mark and we have seen him 2 times and he is fantastic with Cooper, already we have noticed a difference. Can't wait to see Mark again!
Anyone struggling with their pooch don't hesitate in giving Mark a call, you will not regret it.. Thank you Mark :) More...

Cant recommend Mark more highly. He came to see us at our house and talked us through lots of really useful things. He has an amazing knowledge and within moments of him arriving our usually crazy excited dog was calm and sitting. Unbelievable. He then took us out to show us what to do and again, within 10-20 mins and our usually frantic dog, always pulling and having to be in front, was happily trotting along next to me.
Worth every penny, walking is now and enjoyment and not a chore.
Thank you Mark More...

Mark helped with our dog immensely! Very professional. Thanks for the advice!

Marc has been absolutely a huge help training my 7 month lab. He knew exactly how to handle and what tips to give me. After first session I can enjoy walking with my stubborn unruly dog. Huge thanks to Marc.

Mark is a great teacher! In the space of 2 hours, I learnt so much. Such a positive individual and shows that he cares. I will be recommending mark to everyone that I know that has a dog!!

Keep up the good work!
