New Clients – Coby & Cloe

Meet Coby and Cloe, a brother and sister German Shepherd duo who we’ve just started working with. Two lovely dogs with plenty of enthusiasm for the world around them.

Their owners got in touch as both dogs were struggling on the lead, pulling strongly towards other dogs and people in an effort to say hello.

While it comes from excitement rather than bad intent, it can quickly become frustrating (and unsafe) without the right guidance.

We’ve gone straight back to foundations, focusing on lead manners, engagement with their handlers, and helping them learn how to exist calmly in everyday environments.

Teaching them that they don’t need to interact with everything they see is a huge part of building neutrality and confidence.

We’re also working on structured play out in the real world - building value in their handlers and the game itself.

This is taking some work at the moment as the environment is far more interesting than toys or food, but that’s all part of the process. Engagement first, distractions later.

Early days, but a solid start for both dogs. With consistency, structure, and the right direction, Coby and Cloe are already on the right path.

We honestly can’t thank our clients enough for taking the time to write reviews like this.

From the very first assessment with Kaiser, it’s been a privilege to be part of his journey. Hearing that someone felt supported, never judged, and finally confident with their dog means more to us than we can put into words. That’s exactly why we do what we do.

Kaiser may still be a work in progress (as all young dogs are!), but seeing the confidence grow in both dog and handler is what matters most.

Training isn’t about perfection - it’s about progress, trust, and building the skills to enjoy life together.

Thank you for trusting us, for putting the work in, and for allowing us to be part of your journey. Reviews like this remind us every day why this job is so special.

Forever grateful.

We just want to say a huge thank you to Benji’s owners for taking the time to write this review.

It truly means a lot to us.

When they came to us, they were understandably worried and unsure after everything they’d been told before.

To now see Benji walking, exploring the world and enjoying life the way he deserves is exactly why we do what we do.

We’re genuinely over the moon that we were able to help guide and support them through that journey and get Benji to where he is today.

The work they’ve put in, the trust they placed in us, and the commitment they showed has made all the difference.

Thank you for trusting us with Benji.
Thank you for believing in him.

And thank you for allowing us to be part of his journey.

This one means a lot.

Client Spotlight - Benji

Meet Benji, a British Bulldog we’ve recently started working with.

When Benji’s owner first came to us, she admitted she didn’t hold out much hope for training.

A previous trainer had told her that Benji’s aggression meant he should be euthanised.

Hearing that never sits right with us - especially when fear is being mistaken for intent.

When we first met Benji, he was wearing a muzzle and lunging towards me, ready to defend himself. This wasn’t a “bad dog” - this was a dog terrified of the world around him.

So we slowed everything right down.
We focused on building confidence, changing how Benji felt around his triggers, and showing him that the world doesn’t have to be such a scary place. No rushing. No forcing. Just clear communication, structure, and trust.

Fast forward to today…
Benji is off lead, no muzzle, playing, engaging, and happily taking food from me.

Seeing him relaxed and confident reminds us exactly why we do this job.

Dogs don’t need giving up on - they need understanding, guidance, and someone willing to advocate for them.

Well done Benji. We’re proud of you!

New Client Spotlight – Ghost

Meet Ghost, a handsome Doberman who’s recently joined us for training.

Ghost is a rescue dog who has a tendency to lunge at people, particularly children, and with his size and strength this has understandably been difficult for his owners to manage.

We’ve gone right back to foundations with Ghost.

Our focus has been on helping him understand what the lead actually means, taking pressure off situations rather than adding to them.

He’s currently working on a long line so we can build safety, clarity, and calm while still giving him space to learn.

We’re also putting a big emphasis on engagement - using hand feeding and structured play to build trust, confidence, and a working relationship between Ghost and his handlers.

This isn’t about forcing behaviour, it’s about teaching Ghost how to make better choices and feel more secure in the world around him.

Early days, but a solid start. Foundations first, always.

We’re looking forward to showing you Ghost’s journey as the work continues.

NEW CLIENT SPOTLIGHT / RALPH!

Say hello to Ralph - a Whippe x Border Collie puppy with bags of potential and a mind that’s already racing at 100mph.

We’ve just begun laying down his foundations, giving both Ralph and his owners the ground work they need to set themselves up for long-term success.

From engagement and loose-lead fundamentals to calmness around the everyday world, we’re building the habits now that’ll shape the dog he becomes. And let me tell you… this little lad is switched ON.

Puppies like Ralph thrive when structure meets fun - clear guidance, clear expectations, and plenty of moments to celebrate. His owners are already smashing it, and we can’t wait to watch this boy grow.

Welcome to the team, Ralph.

Here’s one that genuinely means a lot.

Working with reactive or anxious dogs isn’t about quick fixes, medication, or masking the problem - it’s about understanding the dog in front of you, meeting them where they’re at, and building real confidence step by step.

This lovely spaniel came to us struggling with people, the outside world, and day-to-day walks. Fast-forward a few sessions and the difference in his behaviour, mindset, and engagement has been incredible. Walks that once felt impossible are now genuinely enjoyable for both dog and owner - that’s the win we chase.

What we love most?
Hearing that every session feels valuable, never overwhelming, and always focused on progress.

That’s exactly what we aim for at Mortimer Canine Academy - balanced, realistic training that owners can carry forward for life.

And the cherry on top… Jeff actually likes me - and apparently he doesn’t like anyone. I’ll take that!

Thank you so much to this owner for trusting us and sharing such a kind review. We’re proud of the work they’ve put in and excited to keep building from here.

New Client Spotlight – Rip the German Shepherd

Say hello to Rip, a young German Shepherd who’s recently joined us for some all-round obedience and confidence building.

His owners reached out wanting support with recall, loose-lead walking, and general manners out in the real world. On top of that, Rip has been a little unsure around other dogs - nothing uncommon for a youngster, and absolutely something that can be worked through with the right structure and approach.

We’re only a couple of sessions in, but Rip is already showing brilliant progress week on week. He’s engaged, switched on, and starting to understand what’s being asked of him. With steady environmental exposure, clear communication, and consistent practice from his owners, this boy is well on his way to becoming the confident, well-rounded dog he’s meant to be.

Excited to see where this journey takes him. Keep it up Rip!

New Client Spotlight

Say hello to Kaiser - our newest bundle of pure Labrador energy!

This boy came to us needing some help with lead manners and his all-round obedience… and let’s just say he arrived with plenty of enthusiasm to spare.

We’re only a couple of sessions in, but the progress this lad has made already is something his owner should be really proud of.

We’ve been focusing on building calm engagement, reducing that initial excitement on the lead, and helping him make better choices out in the real world.

And it’s paying off! Week by week you can see the difference - clearer communication, softer lead, better focus, and a dog who’s starting to understand what’s being asked of him.

Kaiser’s a cracking dog with loads of potential, and with the effort his owner is putting in at home, we’re excited to see just how far this boy can go.

Great work - keep it up!

Meet Belle

Belle is a gorgeous little Staffordshire Bull Terrier x Whippet who’s just joined us for some structured lead-manner work - and wow, this girl can move.

Her owners reached out because Belle hits the end of the lead and launches - no pacing, no checking-in, just straight into overdrive. And with that Staffy power mixed with Whippet speed… you can imagine the combo

This week is all about slowing her brain down, building engagement with the handler, and showing her that walking with her human gets her a lot further than dragging them down the path.

We’re focusing on:
• Clear communication
• Rewarding calm, connected walking
• Building her confidence around everyday distractions
• Teaching her that pressure on the lead means “come back to me,” not “pull harder”

Belle is a sweet, clever girl - she just needs structure, guidance, and a fair bit of consistency (as they all do!).

We’re looking forward to shaping her into a dog that her owners can enjoy walking anywhere, without the arm workout 💪

Welcome to the Mortimer Canine family, Belle
