The Motivated Dog
Dog training based in Colchester, Essex, and beyond. Motivation-first, clear, fair and built around what your dog loves.
Training your dog actually wants to do
I'm Jamie. I train with motivation first, using the things your dog loves to build focus and drive, and I make sure your dog clearly understands what is and isn't expected of them.
From puppies starting out to difficult behaviour cases, including dog and human aggression, every plan is built around your dog and your goals.
