  The UK Dog Whisperer Service Used: Dog Training & Dog Walking

The UK Dog Whisperer, Bruce Clanford, delivered what was expected, is reliable, professional, puts the    dog first, is trustworthy, and has reasonable rates. The UK Dog Whisperer provided additional over and    above, the dogs love him and respect him, and his interest extends well beyond his scope – the whole  family benefits! Bruce Clanford also provided advice and help with diet, illness, injury, recommendations on dog exercise and the dog training was tailored to each dog and their needs. People rave over Caesar Milan, but the UK Dog Whisperer, Bruce, has the same control over dogs.

  The UK Dog Whisperer Service Used: Dog Training, Walking & Rescue Advice

I began working with the UK Dog Whisperer, Bruce Clanford, a year ago after I acquired two rescue dogs.    As a first time dog owner I was unprepared for the problems I encountered. My partner and I had issues    with the dogs such as nervousness, aggression and fear. One even went through a phase of attacking  people. Six months after starting the Dog Whisperer UK training programme things are incredible. Bruce has shown us how to correct and when to ignore bad behaviour, and how to keep calm in tense situations. Without Bruce’s help it was very probable that at least one dog would be re-homed, if not both.

Through the Dog Whisperer UK rescue services, we have adopted another rescue dog – a gorgeous male staff cross – who initially had aggression issues especially with other male dogs. A couple of weeks after the first dog training session with the Dog Whisperer UK, he shares the same space with our other male dogs in peace and quite often playing together. Seeing them behave like this is amazing.

A huge thank-you to Bruce Clanford for helping us work through the issues and for giving Max, Lilly and Sami a chance for the life they deserve

 

Bob & Holly  Bob & Holly – Staffordshire Bull Terriers – Sutton

  The UK Dog Whisperer Service Used: Dog Training, Dog Walking & Rescue Services

We started the Dog Whisperer UK dog training programme and in a few short weeks the dogs were much  happier together. I could never take the dogs out on family outings due to them being highly disruptive as  they were attacking each other. Within 2 weeks we could go everywhere with the dogs, such as the park. After seeing Bruce Clanford, my family and I were more confident handling the dogs, and so confident that we adopted a dog with the help of the Dog Whisperer UK. We rescued and English Bull Terrier. Bruce helped us socialise the dogs all within the first initial consultation, and still we have no issues today. The new dog had an immense urge to chase our 3 cats, and within the initial consultation with Bruce, the cats and the dogs were on the same sofa.

A big thank-you again to the UK Dog Whisperer Bruce in all that you have helped us to achieve

  The UK Dog Whisperer Service Used: Dog Training & Dog Walking

Koko, our Border Terrier has been going out with Bruce for training and walks since we got her at 4  months old. She adores Bruce, and hears his van even when it is at the end of our road. She is so well  behaved, and the training is so good, as Koko is our 4th Border Terrier, and even though she is very young  she is so obedient. I highly recommend Bruce for any type of dog – big or small, as he understands dog psychology so well.

  The UK Dog Whisperer Service Used: Dog Training & Dog Walking

Where can I begin as there is so much to say….Picture this; I have a very proud, independent, Sharpei  called Neehow. She is the love of my life and she knows it. Before I met the Dog Whisperer, Bruce,  Neehow had a list as long as my arm of incidents that she had got her wrinkles into – from running away far into the depths of various parks, to play with whoever she fancied – not even giving a second glance to me, to more serious problems concerning her safety – such as running out into the road and being hit by an oncoming car, or running up onto railway tracks and narrowly missing a train. Despite my attempts to calm her lively spirit and control her urges I felt a failure as an owner, and so desperately wanted her to love and respect me. After trips to the vets, and various other dog trainers, I felt deflated and de-motivated.

I met Bruce Clanford by chance in Nonsuch Park – he had a calming nature about him and was able to interact with the dogs on levels I could only wish to achieve. He told me that Neehow’s behaviour was due to fear responses – he explained through Neehow’s eyes that attack was the first form of defence which led to her acting boisterous around other dogs which I hoped she would eventually grow out of but it got worse. After 6 very interesting dog behaviour sessions, Bruce showed me ways to interact with Neehow to ensure that she was aware of who I was and what the commands meant, whilst having fun and enjoying our time together which increased our bond.

Bruce has taught me to be calm but firm and I have learnt to be an owner first and a friend to my dog second. As a result, Neehow is a much happier and more responsive doggy. She has bought me so much love and happiness. Thanks to Bruce, The Dog Whisperer UK, she will enjoy her 4th birthday – a birthday I did not think she would ever celebrate due to her many mis-adventures. He has taught me so much and for that I am eternally grateful. Thank – you Bruce.

 

20130904_110702  Hector & Cody – King Charles Spaniels – Stonecot Hill

  The UK Dog Whisperer Service Used: Dog Training & Dog Walking

My little Hector is a Crufts champion and Bruce took him for a one off training session for me as every show that we went to, Hector was trying to attack every dog in the show ring…which just started occurring out of the blue. When  Hector returned from his first training session, he was already like a different dog and I was able to take him in the  show ring no problem. He was also so happy, that I had to continue with the services from Bruce as Hector loves him so much. My little Cody screeches the house down without Hector, so Cody now goes for walks with Bruce too, and they are like different dogs. Bruce is so good as he even took them to Arundel one day and he provides me with pictures which is really fabulous as I don’t have a camera. Bruce treats them really well and I am really trusting of my special show dogs in his hands.
