Woody - a working dog

 Wendy, Graham and Woody - English Springer Spaniel

Woody was a very nervous 5 month old puppy and was the proud new owner of 2 people that wanted to work with him as a gundog for beating and picking up. Having not worked with a dog before they also wanted him to be able to integrate into their active life as a pet.

"We found Phil incredibly helpful. The structured, methodical and simple to follow approach that Phil brought uses enabled us to both understand Woody and work with him so that we all benefited from the training.
Phil eased us through the growing and often challenging times with Woody and got us to the point where we could work him on his first shoot when was just over a year old, he performed magnificently and we're very proud of him. He still gets praise from other working dog owners on his level of obedience, ability and keenness to work.
This is one of hardest things that Phil has managed to achieve for us, having an obedient working gun dog and pet that has maintained his own personality and is always keen to please."

We have recommended Phil to our friends with working dogs and have received great feedback on how they are getting on. We recommend PJ Dog Training without any hesitation.
