MidlandsGrizzlys

Have completed the obedience and the off lead training with Adam, and it has made a massive difference to our Romanian rescue dog Bramble. Amazing difference even after the first lesson, and the off lead training has been a revelation. Bramble is so happy when he is off the lead, and so am I as I know I can control him, but still let him enjoy himself. Sessions were always enjoyable and Adam makes effort to give individual feedback to all, as well as giving useful nuggets of information on all sorts of aspects of dog ownership. Socialising with other dogs made a big difference too, from tiny dogs to very large!! All added to the overall experience. Would highly recommend.

I can not recommend Adam and MidlandsGrizzlys highly enough. From the very first session, it was clear that this isn’t just another dog training company — it’s an exceptional service that combines deep knowledge of canine psychology with real, practical training methods that actually work. I have now trusted Adam with two of my dogs, each with very different temperaments, personalities, and needs. What impressed me the most is how adaptable and skilled Adam is in tailoring his training to each dog as an individual. Both of my dogs have completed the Obedience Programme, and the results have been nothing short of incredible. The transformation in their focus, behaviour, and responsiveness was clear from the very first few sessions. I am now enrolled in the Off-Lead Programme, and once again, Adam’s expertise and patient, structured approach are shining through. The level of control, trust, and communication he helps you build with your dog is second to none. He doesn’t just train your dog — he teaches you how to understand and work with your dog on a deeper level, which makes all the difference. Adam’s professionalism, passion, and dedication to the dogs is evident in every session. He strikes the perfect balance between firm, fair guidance, and encouragement, ensuring that both you and your dog feel supported every step of the way. His ability to explain canine psychology in a way that owners can understand is invaluable, and it gives you the confidence to continue reinforcing the training outside of the sessions. It’s no surprise to me that MidlandsGrizzlys is rated among the top 3 in the UK — they absolutely deserve it. Adam has exceeded my expectations every single time, and the progress I’ve seen with both of my dogs has been life-changing. If you are looking for dog training that truly delivers, with a trainer who genuinely cares and goes above and beyond, Adam at MidlandsGrizzlys is the one to trust. I would never go anywhere else!! I Honestly can’t thank them enough.

CHARLIE AND ELLA. We couldn’t recommend Adam more! We were at breaking point with our dog’s reactivity and aggressive towards other dogs, whilst he was on lead- we had to avoid dogs at all costs- walking the other way, or hiding in a bush, until they went by, distracting with food/ toys, 50 different types of lead, we tried everything! 60 out of 61 dogs, he would react towards and we couldn’t work out why. Was he scared, was he dominant? We had no idea how to fix him. We were at the point of we can’t do this anymore… The embarrassment we felt each time and the worry he would just keep getting worse. I remember feeling overwhelmed at some of our first sessions as we were desperate. We worked with 3 different trainers before Adam and no one was able to fix Charlie’s problem. BUT NOW, We have a completely different dog and now maybe 1 in 60 dogs he reacts too but only if the other dog reacts to him first. After the reactivity programme, we did the off lead programme, which has meant we are able to have him off lead, running around living his best life. We went on holiday and had them off lead on the beach at all times and had no worries about having control of our dogs- which allowed them to enjoy freedom Furthermore, Adam has given us the skills and knowledge to train our 10 month old puppy. She is a dream… no long lines getting tangled up… Not saying we didn’t have to put in a lot of hard work and time in, but a million percent it has paid off. With the support, encouragement, critique and pointers, during our sessions. Knowing what to work on week by week, gave us goals to reach. It has completely changed our lives. Thank you so much Adam.

After only 2 home visits and one 1-2-1 off lead session, we've seen incredible improvements with our 8 month old working Labrador. Currently strolling round the lake district without a worry. Adam's help has been brilliant and delivered immediate results. Cannot fault one bit. We've signed up for the obedience class and will move immediately onto off lead once completed. Would highly recommend Adam if you're looking for fast results and excellent service

An outstanding trainer who delivers exceptional results. Adam's expertise in dog behaviour and training is clear from the very first session. He has an effective, no-nonsense approach that works wonders. After completing his obedience and off-lead course, our whippet pup is incredibly well-behaved. A wholehearted recommendation for any dog owner seeking a top-tier professional. Can't recommend him high enough, totally exceeded my expectations!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I found Adam at Midlands Grizzly’s when desperately searching for behavioural support for my dog, who was struggling with severe anxiety and reactivity. At the time, she had been placed on high doses of anxiety medication and I was deeply concerned about relying on that long term. Even after just the first session with Adam, I felt something I hadn’t in a long time - hope. Hope that my dog’s anxiety could genuinely improve and she could live a calmer, happier life and that my own confidence and technique as a handler could grow too. Adam’s calm, structured approach and deep understanding of dog behaviour and psychology gave us both exactly what we needed. By the end of the initial session, my dog was calmly walking around an incredibly large group of other dogs (most of them much larger than her too) something that would have been completely unimaginable before. The training environment is professional, supportive and focused on real-world results. I wasn’t just given advice - I was taught how to lead my dog with clarity and confidence. I’m so grateful to Adam and the team at Midlands Grizzly’s and I cannot wait to see the impact of our future sessions over the coming weeks and months. If you're facing behavioural issues and want real, lasting change - this is where you go. ✨ Bonus: She slept the entire 1-hour drive home... and for the rest of the day! Usually, she’s frantic, panicked and a panting mess whenever we go in the car - so that alone speaks volumes.

Our dogs first training day with Adam at MidlandGrizzly's We could see the difference in our dog within the two hours we were there. He's very polite and knowledgeable in all aspects of Dog Training and how to get the best from your pet. Lots of other Dog owners on same training ground with all types and breeds of dogs, everyone we spoke with said that Adam had been fabulous with their pet, and themselves, teaching owners how to look after, and how to behave around their own pet Highly recommended just from our first visit. Fabulous 2nd training day for our Bailey, he's such a different dog from a few weeks ago. Thank you
