Here’s What They’re Saying

Duncan MacNeill

Excellent, supportive training that works! When our 7 month old puppy, Coady, started to display severe Separation Anxiety issues….3 months later and we’re delighted to say that Coady’s progress has been amazing and he can now cope with being left at home for carefully, monitored periods of time without signs of distress... We were very impressed too with the level of support given to us as owners through the use of zoom sessions, What’s App, analysis of videos and instructions given during the live training sessions…Jo & Jonny’s highly professional, supportive and encouraging manner instills confidence and gets results! Would have no hesitation in recommending them or their programme. Excellent results.

I can’t recommend Blue Box Dog Training highly enough. Jo and Jonny are such great advocates for positive based training. Brodie and I got so much out of their classes. Professional, knowledgeable and above all, lovely people. Look no further than Blue Box for local, trusted and qualified dog trainers.

BBDT have been absolutely amazing helping us train Shug, our (now) 10month old standard poodle, who was born blind. Of course having a blind puppy came with its challenges, but Jonny, Jo and team have risen above it and helped adapt many training plans to suit our boy, with patience and grace, helping us feel even more supported in our journey as first time dog owners.

We’ve been attending classes since Shug was 12 weeks old and to see how far he’s come is amazing.

Thank you so much BBDT!

My dog Gracie and I have had a couple of 121 sessions with Jonny and the progress made in such a short time has been life changing for us both.  Sounds extreme but walks are much more enjoyable and fun 🥰 less anxiety driven 😮‍💨

Having owned dogs for lots of years I thought I knew how to train dogs, Gracie came along and proved me wrong 😑😂 but with patient and positive support from Jonny that’s all change for the better!
Thank you 🤍

I have been training with Jo and Johnny for a while now and would highly recommend them if your looking for the skills and knowledge to train your puppy/dog. Being a first time dog owner I have been quite nervous and wanted to make sure I was doing everything properly and Jo and Johnny have been so patient with me. They have went above and beyond in all areas regarding training Reggie including recommending leads, harness and food they also gave me a loan of different leads and collars to try which I have been so grateful for. I have had one to one sessions as well as the classes and both have been extremely beneficial.

We have attended Blue Box Dog Training with our pup over the last few months. Jo and Jonny offer a brilliant learning experience that benefits both dog and owner. They make each class fun and adapt tasks to help each dog. Everything is taught through positive reinforcement and understanding your dog. They are both very knowledgeable and are happy to share advice and tips.

I have been taking on of my Dalmatians to Jo and Jonny for over a year and our rescue Dal for just over 3 months. with their help and dedication both walk to heel, have amazing recall and actually pay attention to what I say. Fauna has completed her Grade 3 IMDT AND Darcie after only a few months had achieved grade 1. In banks to them I have two beautiful well behaved girls who I can take anywhere and trust they will behave.

Just completed a 5 week block of training with our 1 year old rescue dog. My dog loves the sessions and we have learnt so much already and his recall has improved considerably.

Jo & Jonny take time at the start of each session to hear how things are going and, give invaluable advice and tips relating to any challenges highlighted.

The training itself is varied and enjoyable and they are very patient with dogs & owners alike!

We've signed up for another block and can't recommend them enough.

We took our pup Stanley for two blocks so far. Jo and Johnny are really brilliant trainers, helping me and our girls to learn how to train him together. Very family friendly, boosting the girls' self confidence too!

We had read books and watched lots of dog training videos, but real life training is a whole other level. I have often wondered what it would like without those classes. Now Stanley is 6 months and a few people have commented on him being the best trained pup/dog they've seen! we've seen it as an investment for having a well behaved dog for the next decade!

Jo and Jonny are great dog trainers, and I would absolutely recommend them.

They always ensure every dog is included during class and given exercises matching their needs and skills.

They always made sure we could attend a class that was the most suitable for us, and they were a great help with our German Shepherd puppy, who gets distracted way too easily.

My adolescent Boxer had never been on a lead or received any training when we got her at 5mths old and has been challenging with her excitable behaviour. We have done a mix of indoor and outdoor classes and Stormy loves it, she is excitable in class but we are able to work away on the techniques given to us by Jo and Jonny.  The training methods are force free which was important to me and they are both super patient, thankfully! Thank you both!

I have been bringing my wee dog Ludo to Blue Box Dog Training for the past year. Ludo is very shy and nervous around unfamiliar people and dogs and has benefitted greatly from a variety of outdoor, one to one and indoor classes. I have seen a huge difference in Ludo over the past year and it has been lovely to see him grow in confidence. I would highly recommend Blue Box Dog Training and am grateful for all of the advice I have received.

We have attended 2 blocks of puppy classes (levels 1 & 2). Murphy our standard poodle has really enjoyed going to the classes as have I and his progress has been brilliant throughout. Jo and Jonny have been brilliant throughout and encouraging, even when I had a bad week checking in on me after the class finished. Would highly recommend!

Love the small class size which enables personal and focused training sessions. The 45 minute duration of a class is perfect. Both my puppy and 2 year old have benefited from the positive training methods employed by J 'n' J. They both quite obviously love dogs and enjoy helping owners with any problems they may have. Hoping to continue training with both my dogs in the new year.

Looking after Brodie is a challenge. Joanne has this under control as he’s an 11 week old lab pup. Can’t thank u enough for looking after our boy and helping with training.
