    Experience has been exceptional. My 4 year old terrier/poodle has improved dramatically since we saw Callum. Her behaviour towards other dogs was very challenging and resulted in us both being very tense during and after walks. Seeing dogs on tv saw her barking uncontrollably and her general obedience was poor. One visit from Callum and all that has changed. I can walk her anywhere with little to no problem. No barking at tv. General obedience is night and day. He taught me to be in control of all situations. She has relaxed considerably. All of her anxiety has melted away. I’ve had to work at it but well worth it as is the price. I’ll be forever grateful

    Callum was absolutely fantastic with our very hyperactive young Belgian Malinois x GSD, who had some issues with lead reactivity and over excitement. After our session with Callum she is doing so great, the things we were taught are making such a big difference to her already, and have even had a huge positive impact on other non ideal behaviours throughout her daily routine. With Callum’s methods we are now at the point of almost no barking or reacting at all on the lead, and a much calmer time passing dogs and people in areas where we would have had a hard time previously. Definitely recommend The Dog Life for training and understanding dog behaviour in order to make the changes required to see real results.

    Callum helped us with our 7 month old Rough Collie pup who had various anxieties (eg stairs, the lead, grooming, separation anxiety), reactivity to other dogs and new people (not aggressive but highly exciteable, pulling on the lead, jumping up, saying hello to everyone, human and dog) - Callum spent lots of time with us and listened to us closely, observed our pup with us indoors and outdoors/walking), gave his assessment, then spent time teaching us how to address the issues and how to support her longer term development, and included a lot of breed specific knowledge and information - our pup is now 11 months old and all of Callum’s advice has been so helpful to us and pup has made really good progress in all areas. Callum has been available for ongoing support if/when we needed it too. I highly recommend Callum to anyone reading this website and looking for a diligent and knowledgeable trainer who knows his stuff! He really assessed our puppy’s nature and needs very well, and our needs and expectations too.

    I used Callum because I had a nervous 8 month old German Shepherd and I was terrified of taking Kleo out. Callum came to our rescue and from the first day with Callum I was at ease he was absolutely brilliant with me and especially Kleo he helped us amazingly. He explained everything took time with us and even told me the proper lead I should be using for Kleo. I am still working with Callum and Kleo has come on leaps and bound and my confidence in taking Kleo out has improved immensely. Please if you are looking for a dog trainer I would definitely recommend Dog Life there support is outstanding.

    We had Callum round for an initial consultation. It was pricey but we were paying for his time and it took us a few hours to explain our issues and chat through some ideas to try resolve them. We had planned for some further sessions if I felt we needed them and if the initial advice wasn’t working. Callum replied to a text I’d sent following on from our conversation and then after that nothing. I was hoping for some training sessions as we had discussed. I text, called, emailed and even enquired on his website because I got no replies. This was extremely frustrating as we had invested our time in him and spent time explaining the issues with our dog. I also think it was extremely rude to not answer. I think if Callum didn’t think he could help he should have replied saying that and not just completely ignored me. I had also recommended him to a friend who had a very similar experience - initial consultation with some training for her puppy with plans for a follow up and she never heard a thing. I would not recommend Callum.

    Callum is fantastic with dogs. He has really helped us with our German shepherds anxiety and assertiveness. Would highly recommend if you are thinking of using him, he really knows what they are thinking and has taught us a lot about our dog that we didn't know.
