Otto

I have no doubt that Linnea and Gregor saved my dog Otto from rehoming or worse...He is the best companion now and I can credit his turnaround from a dog who constantly pushed people and boundaries, to a dog who has a greater respect for us and manners!

I contacted walk and train, after suddenly having to look after Otto’s sister when her owner became unwell. She added the fuel to her already boisterous brother’s behaviour. After spending several hours observing, guiding and training both me and the dogs, we agreed that rehoming Lottie, would give both dogs a better chance at succeeding. I felt such a failure but I now realise how wrong I was.

This was a big turning point for Otto. I was then able to have him walked every day by Gregor and his walks are incredible; over the hills, through forests and around and in lakes! Otto was taught respect, boundaries, pack order and I was guided to see Otto’s true spirit and that he wasn’t a problem dog. Walk and Train offer the full package: training for you (yes the owners are the biggest problems for dogs) training for the dogs which is nothing short of ‘dog whispering’, guidance notes to be able to read and re-read and of course the incredible walks. Otto is a credit to their dedication and patience and I am most certainly a better owner with a greater understanding of who my best buddy is and what he needs.
