https://foreverhomedogtraining.com/contact-us- I am Gareth the owner and founder of Forever Home Dog Training, I have always found dogs fascinating and I love the connection and bond you can build with a dog. As a child I grew up with Border collies but I believe that every dog has the ability to take a special place in your heart, home and family. Having serv
ed 12 years as a Police officer, I decided in 2021 that I wanted a change and took the opportunity to become a dog trainer. Now I am helping both dogs and their owners to live happy and settled lives in their forever homes. As the owner of both a German Shepherd that I have raised and trained from being a puppy, and a Staffordshire bull terrier that I adopted I began appreciating the need to understand behaviour and the importance of building a solid bond with your dog. I started studying dog behaviour and I am currently working towards an advanced canine behaviourist qualification and have attended numerous other courses regarding canine behaviour, reactivity, body language and puppy development. I believe in continuous learning to further my high standards, ethics and methodology of positive reinforcement and force free training, as it provides better value and increases the support I offer but also ensures that my sessions are fun and informative and supports all dogs in the best way possible. I work with all breeds including puppies with a specialism in reactivity cases and supporting owners of rescue dogs. I offer 1-2-1 training and support in the Cheshire, Greater Manchester and Derbyshire areas but if you live further away not a problem as we also offer online training and support. I love seeing the change in a dog and their confidence build, I look forward to working with both you and your dog in the future. We are constantly improving and our updating our skills and knowledge by regularly attending courses and events this way you know that you are receiving the best training for you and your dog.
