Behaviour modification
Not only do I regularly recommend Darryl Payne as a dog trainer and behaviourist, but myself and two other members of our practice take our own dogs to his group classes. Darryl has proven to be confident with all types of dogs regardless of their problems, he is patient, positive and provides exactly the right motivation just when it is needed. He has a genuine interest in, and love of, dogs including their care and welfare. Darryl’s communication skills are excellent, he is sympathetic and empathetic to the challenges faced by owners and always provides well judged and wholly appropriate solutions.

In 20 years of owning a very strong breed of dog Darryl is by far the best trainer I have seen. He understands willful, challenging breeds, knows just how to get the best from them …. And my dogs loved him! He is an expert in not only obedience and agility training but also deals very effectively with all behavioural issues. His guidance, extreme patience (which you need with Bull Terriers!) and sense of humour, will help any family with any dog problem. Darryl is top of his profession and we feel very fortunate to have found him.
Louise Cooke with Percy and Maisy (English Bull Terriers) July 2008
Thanks to you we not only find Taz bearable now, but even “loveable”. He’s a pleasure to have around.

Darryl was extremely patient and informative. Truly amazing.
Dr. Todd and Kristine Ehrlich Dallas Texas USA
Darryl is wonderful. I have suggested him to everyone. Very effective. Very professional. “The best”.
Sandy Clarke
We could not have asked for a better trainer or training system. Darryl showed us how to take a dog abandoned by 3 different families for bad behaviour and turn him into a well behaved, loving member of the family. Thank You!

What a great dog school. Friendly people and great dogs. My dogs have improved incredibly … and it’s a fantastic way to spend a Sunday. Trevor Jones with Staffordshire Bull Terrier “Jake”
The best move I ever made – Molly is so much better now, I unreservedly recommend Darryl. Margaret & German Shepherd “Molly”
You can only be inspired by Darryl’s enthusiasm and perfection. A great mixture of fun and discipline that has built a stronger bond and understanding with my dog. Melanie Casbolt with Collie “Bailey”
Better than any club I have ever been to before. This takes group dog training to a whole new level. Friendly and fun, a true club atmosphere. The very best! Sam & “Hunter” yellow Labrador – Kennel club obedience display team – Crufts 2008
Excellent! I have noticed a big improvement when walking the dog on a lead, now I don’t feel more worn out than the dog when we get back! The walk around Canterbury was extremely helpful also the small class size meant no hanging around and there was always helpful advice when we needed it. Lisa Batchelor & Chocolate Lab “Rolo”
