Deborah is an excellent Dog Trainer based in Longridge, Lancs. Her facility is approx 10 mins from the M6 Motorway. We have a mad springer and having used other Dog Trainers I had all but given up. I have used her services on more than one occasion and she has produced excellent results which has improved our home life enormously. We dropped our dog off for 'doggie day care' and when he was collected we were given a report card and a CD of photos of what he had been up to during the day. A great personable touch. I wish Deborah the very best and have no hesitation in recommending her to others John E. Longridge

From the intial phone call to find a puppy class for 10 week old Domino, to the array of advice and encouragement when the skinny, skittish rescue dog we brought home turned our lives upside down, and on to the ongoing encouragement that the latest four legged addition with her inability to keep still or pay attention, Deborah has been there throughout it all
We would not have survived our first 4 years of being dog owners were it not for Deb and the multitude of classes, advice and encouragement on hand whenever we have needed it. Through the frustrating 8 re-sits for Domino to pass her bronze class to the discovery of Guiness' flare for agility and the joy on his face when he knew it was 'school time', to Zivah discovering something in common with her, now (comparatively) goody two shoes sister Domino, in a shared excitement and enthusiasm for flyball. Being terriers and a working breed they soon get tired of repeating exercises so the variety of classes keeps them constantly entertained, not to mention improving my fitness through 90 minutes running around the ever changing agility course every week with the other dogs.
The clicker days have proved invaluable in helping us repair the damage done to our rescue dog Guiness who still struggles with his fear of dogs, people and the scary wide world but is improving in confidence every day and has gone from being the constant bark that came from behind the table in the corner of the training room to perfecting a 5 minute stay in a room with 4 other dogs and winning fastest clear round on a recent agility day. While he has made amazing progress he still has a long way to go but with support from Deb i'm sure we'll get there someday. I know we have Deb to thank for our happy (relatively) stable dogs who understand clear boundaries and are taught with a care, encouragement and compassion that is modelled by Deb and instilled in others through classes. Once you've done dog training Deborah's way you will never got back to what you did before! Naomi W. Preston
