Max

After we brought our Labrador Max into our world at 14 months, we quickly realised that we needed some support working on his manners. He came to us with minimal training, and a lot of energy which was difficult to contain at times - especially around other dogs and squirrels! After googling dog trainers in Edinburgh, we were particularly taken by Linnea and Gregor’s approach to training and their enjoyment of the outdoors.

After just one Zoom call, we already had exercises to work on with Max and started to improve our communication with him. It wasn’t long until we got to meet Linnea in person - it was amazing to see her pick up on Max’s behaviour cues, which shows the amount of knowledge and experience Linnea has when it comes to understanding dogs.

We used to dread passing other dogs on walks as Max would lunge towards them, and we'd often have to battle severe cases of the zoomies! The socialisation classes run by Walk & Train Edinburgh have really helped with Max’s excitement levels around other dogs and sped up all of our learning. Max is now a much calmer dog, who’s easier to communicate with and we feel relaxed when taking him out and about. A lot of this is down to consistent work we put in, setting him up for success and not rewarding bad behaviour. Our relationship with Max would be nowhere near as positive had we not found Walk & Train Edinburgh.

We all really enjoy our sessions with Walk & Train Edinburgh, and are looking forward to taking Max to more advanced Sporty Dog classes this summer! Something we would never have thought possible before meeting Linnea just over a year ago.

Highly recommend! A rewarding experience all round.
