Course Review by C Croft
We cannot thank Jenny and Mike enough. Before the course started we were struggling to really make any progress or to even have any confidence. With our previous dogs, we had been to regular puppy school. We of course learned a few things but nothing dramatic. Not so with this programme.
It was transformative for me and my family. The video's make it possible to revisit the lessons endlessly, the lectures helped us learn things we needed to know, the feedback sessions picked up small mistakes we did not know had such a big impact on behaviour. In short, an invaluable four weeks. Thank you so much.

Course Review by C Dueck
I highly recommend using these courses to everyone, especially those who lead busy lives as the convenience, and QUALITY of these courses is incredible.
Jenny and Mike are clearly very passionate about dogs, and training and even with all the people on these courses, they still remember the names of people and their dogs, and the struggles their facing - which to be honest I did not expect from an online course, but they clearly care about every single person they’re teaching.
I loved the courses so much, I’ve already purchased another and I plan on doing every course they offer. If I could give Adolescent Dogs more than five stars, I would. Thanks so much, Jenny and Mike!
VIP Review by Kerry Nightingale
Best ever on line training and most importantly real time support. Join VIP club as the videos are soooooo helpful and break things down. The live meetings and training demos are brilliant.
Jenny and Mike make you comfortable to ask questions, to get things wrong and learning a friendly environment.
Since following their methods we have made such a difference to our golden retriever, even though we had a positive 121 trainer come to our home before lock down.
We wish we had found adolescent dogs earlier when our puppy was younger. I cannot recommend them enough, worth every penny. We adore our puppy and feel we are making a really positive investment all our futures by training with them.
