Wagtails have been a game-changer for me and my anxious little dog.
After completing a six-week puppy training course elsewhere that didn’t meet our needs, I wasn’t sure where to turn next. From my very first enquiry with Wagtails, I’ve felt supported every step of the way. They’ve offered real, practical advice tailored to our situation, with 1:1 guidance and gentle encouragement to help my dog gradually join a small group session.
We’re not quite there yet, but I’m feeling optimistic—and I think my dog is too!
What stands out most is how much they genuinely care. This isn’t just a job for them—it’s their passion, and that shines through in everything they do.

Fantastic trainers who teach in a helpful and calm manner. They offer many different training courses and fun activities and are always available with support and advice throughout your puppy/dog's life.

Lyn and Mike are kind, positive, gentle trainers who are amazing at meeting our dogs and our own needs, they help us work at our dogs' pace and where necessary teach us different methods to find the ones our dogs respond to best. They create a calm, friendly, welcoming environment making it a place the dogs are happy to be in and somewhere my husband and I look forward to going to. We learnt so much when we took our dog reactive Cane Corso, who Mike absolutely loved, and now we're taking two 8 month old labradoodles puppies and our training continues.
I have to use a walker and there are two other people in different classes who have similar needs, Lyn and Mike have just set up a class specifically for us and put together a training plan to enable us to train our dogs a long side our mobility aids. This is such a thoughtful, inclusive thing for them to do, something which my husband and I are most appreciative of.
We cannot recommend them enough.

This is the first time we have used puppy training for one of our dogs and I have been very impressed with the knowledge and experience shown during training. We have been so pleased that we are continuing with the training under their guidance, for the Good dog citizen awards

It has been a pleasure working with Lyn, Mike and the team to train my very bouncy puppy and see him grow into a well behaved dog. I've spent a lot of time training other dogs and I can confidently say that Wagtail Walks and Training's methods are up to date and very well founded. If there is something that you are struggling with, there are always enough people around during training to allow you to chat through issues separately.
I regularly recommend them to fellow dog owners when I am out and about.

Life changing for me and my dog, the team go above and beyond. I cannot even put into words how amazing they have been for mine and my dog's journey. I would highly recommend to anyone with a dog!
