Game Changer

1:1 with Steve today was an absolute game changer. He really knows dogs, and as importantly their humans! He listens to concerns and worries and offers constructive, achievable advice. Never criticised and helped us work out what we could be doing better. We were never made to feel incapable and came away with more confidence. How our dog immediately responded to him in a respectful, positive way was incredible! If you are thinking about 1:1 with Steve. Don’t hesitate, just go for it!

Absolutely Brilliant

I brought Sidney for a Gun for Fun session - suffice to say Sid did not take to it and I was quite upset but Steve was so brilliant and said to go back for a one-to-one and we would get through the problems. When we went back Sid was a completely different dog and, in the nicest possible way, Steve gave me subtle clues (some not so subtle!) as to what could be done and we have got another session booked in already. I have much more confidence now - Steve has so much understanding of the relationships between dogs/owners and notices the slightest thing - over the moon that we have found him and Sid will go from strength to strength (though not in the vocal cord area!!)

A genuine love for dogs!

Simply amazing! A genuine love for dogs! and had our lab under control within 4 minutes truly amazing to watch!!! Also the techniques that Steve taught us were so simple and effective made dog walking very pleasurable again!! Looking forward to our next session thank you!

Steve was Absolutely brilliant

We had used other trainers with little progress a dog walker recommended Breckland and it was the best move we made getting in contact with Steve. Our sprocker and us have made so much progress. We can now enjoy wonderful times on walks and off lead with our Bailey thanks to the excellent training. Thank you Steve

You don’t need to go anywhere else….

I have been coming to Breckland Gundog Training for nearly two years after previously using a different (recommended) Gundog trainer. I switched to Steve and Mel at Breckland Gundog training as I found the previous trainer somewhat disinterested in both the needs of myself as a handler and my dog. The methods at Breckland Gundog training have been simple to implement and see through without over complicated steps thrown in. The individual needs of dog and handler are met and the support from Steve allows us to work at our pace to get the best from us as a pair. I no longer have to carry around a pocket full of food to bribe my dog with and using only calm positive praise as reward the improvements have been brilliant. I’m looking forward to the day we see the results in the shooting field. I wish we had started with Breckland Gundog Training from the off!

A top class gun dog trainer!

We first came across Steve when we were looking for a trainer to teach us and our first dog some general obedience. We got on well and after seeing the results of his training methods I asked Steve to find me a black lab with a nice thick head I could train to take shooting! Steve supplied me with a fantastic pup we named Jack. He then followed this up with teaching me and Jack all the skills and training methods we needed to turn him into a solid gun dog. We used both a mixture of 121’s and the group training sessions which I found extremely helpful to get us to where we are today! Jack will shortly turn 2 and has just had his first 4 successful days on the peg this season! He’s proof in the pudding that Steve’s training works after receiving compliments on how steady he was and following all the commands we have been working on out in the field. I’d strongly recommend Steve if you’re serious about training your dog for the field!

Would highly recommend

Iv been going to Steve for 2 years, I can't recommend him enough. Always there on hand if I had some training issues with simple but effective solutions.

Finally someone on my wave length!

After going to a number of different dogs trainers over the years, I’ve never found one that gives me the time and skill set I was after. That was until I met Steve! His dedication and care to both me and my dogs is amazing. He has given me confidence in both myself and my dogs ability, and I even get to now call him a friend! Thanks Steve, for everything.
