Kirk's Canine Academy

Alistair's work with sandy has made a phenomal difference in her behaviour, and couldn't ask for a more devoted trainer. highly recommend!

We just graduated the puppy training classes with out 19 week rottweiler pup & what a lovely 6 weeks we’ve had. alastair was super patient and helpful with us considering we started late. kobi has picked up everything sooo quickly which really shocked us as he is such a busy and large pup! alistair has given us constant advice online throughout (i’ve picked his brains lol) and hasn’t hesitated to give us help with any issues! we will be going on to the next set of classes and having a 1-2-1 in the future! 😊 highly recommend!

Me and my partner have a 20 week old lab puppy. he was an absolute ball of energy and while he wasn't bad in nature he definitely needed some training. having been very skeptical of puppy classes and dog trainers we came across alistair and the puppy progression course and thought it would be worth a go. what a brilliant 6 weeks. alistair was patient, knowledgeable and an all-round great bloke. we learned great skills through the course to implement in the home setting and it made a massive difference in our dogs behaviour. we also made the most of the 1 on 1 sessions he offers to get some external assistance in a home setting. again he didn't disappoint. we were able to get an in depth assessment of a few of his behaviours and really learnt how to manage them. the past 6 weeks we were taught to look at what causes the behaviour and help change it in a proactive way. not to iron fist the dog into submission. so if that's what you're worried about like i was. there's no need to be! couldn't recommend anyone more. very very impressed. thanks again alistair!

I can't thank alistair enough for all his help in training me to train bear! i would fully encourage any dog owner to work with alistair - bear and i have learnt so much and i've now got a confident and happy dog, well trained on and off the lead. i've got a great framework to work with, and can be confident that bear and i will go from strength to strength! thank you alistair 👏👏👏

Highly recommend kirks canine academy. we completed the puppy classes with our two siberian huskies. it was massively helpful and very enjoyable and alistair’s support does not stop there. the course comes with extremely good videos to support the training. thank you alistair.
