I have been going to puppy training classes for 6 months, I can honestly say that my dog runs in to the class to see... Mark, he absolutely loves his training and is thriving on it. It has helped by giving me the confidence to let my dog off lead from 4months old and know that we can do recall, I'm happy to let my dog socialize & play knowing I have the commands to use if I need to pull him away, get him back on lead or remove him from any other situation. My dog thoroughly enjoys his training & I've also made some great friends to walk with. Mark is very knowledgeable about dogs, he isnt phased by anything you ask & always has a reassuring way of solving any issues, big or small. I would highly recommend Herts Canine to anyone wanting to train theirs puppy/dog. 100%.read more

He's worked wonders with our rescue rottie Sid. His background was unknown as he was picked up off the street and when... we first got him home we didn't think we could keep him as he was very reactive with other dogs, we tried another trainer who came twice never went out with him and just wrote a couple of things down and that was it. Mark came interacted with Sid, got him into classes and he's so much better now. Wouldn't be without Sid now thanks to Mark.read more

My old dog Skye had hydrotherapy at Herts Canine for a long time for arthritis. She was always much more bouncy and... relaxed afterwards. She was always treated like the diva she was. My other dog used to come too and curl up on the floor whilst waiting for Skye. Afterwards there were always treats!Mark was always friendly, polite and reliable. If there was ever a problem with the pool, he always let me know in plenty of time and he would fit in as much as possible with the times I could manage.I was very happy with the treatment that the dogs and I received.My pup also attended and graduated from puppy class. She is a nervous little thing but was treated very sensitively and ended by doing even the exercises that worried her.read more
