Build A Bond dog training and Walking

Lovely people. Our dog has benefited hugely from going to Build a Bond. He absolutely loves going.

As first-time dog owners, we wanted a bit of guidance to get off on the right foot and set our pup up for success. We started last year with the three-lesson puppy package that Build A Bond offered. This was good value and helped build our confidence with training at home and gave us the skills to progress after our lessons had finished. When he was old enough we then booked onto the 5-week puppy class held at Cotgrave Church. As well as both us and our dog continuing to learn new skills, it was a great opportunity to meet other owners and for the dogs to socialise in a controlled environment. Being on a learning curve myself as an owner this was valuable experience. This is something we have carried forward into membership at the new daycare centre. Adrian and his team have done a great job putting this place together, and as with the previous classes we've had with Build a Bond, the drop-in sessions have been relaxed, friendly, and very worthwhile. With everything that is included in the membership price, I consider it represents good value for money, and again, learning how dogs of different ages and sizes behave together in a safe controlled environment with expert supervision has been a good learning experience for me and great fun for my dog. I would definitely recommend any aspect of the services offered, including the pet sitting services which we have also taken advantage of on a couple of occasions and been very happy with.

From start, the welcome and explanation of the services was excellent - shown around the whole facility which was clean and inviting for our dog. The assessment session went really well and from there we were able to download an app to help book in regular sessions. Drop off and pick up go really well and there is plenty of interaction for the dogs. Walks included and Charlie seems really happy to go. Have already noticed a difference in his social interaction with other dogs. On site shop for the usual dog leads, harnesses & toys. Would highly recommend anyone looking for a regular day care for their dog as they are very well looked after. Sessions are available for training and would recommend joining as a member to get exclusive discounts. Great staff, great facilities - fantastic set up - Thank you

Before we came to build a bond our 5 year old rescue dog, Ghost, was extremely reactive around other dogs and very nervous around new people. One week into having him we knew we needed the very best to help us with his training. Adrian's training methods are positive and effective. He made the whole process fun and enjoyable for both Ghost and myself. He was able to answer all of my questions and give options for the best way forward. He even visited our home and gave me daily exercises to do at home, which helped Ghost. These tips shortened our learning curve and has helped me take ghosts behaviour to the next level in the shortest possible time. Thanks to Adrian, Ghost is now able to go for walks without reacting aggressively. He is also able to welcome visitors into the home without anxiety. I cannot recommend Adrian and Build a Bond Dog Training Company enough. If you're looking for a knowledgeable and friendly trainer who truly cares about your dog's well-being, look no further than Adrian!

Build a Bond Dog Training is a great company for anyone looking for some additional support for their dog. The courses they offer alongside the 121 training and training walks are exceptional and they allow you to get the help you need for your dog. I personally used the 121 training and the training walks and they were so useful for my reactive dog. We were able to get the practical experience we needed to train him in a controlled environment.
