"I can't recommend EDF highly enough for their dog training. We've just completed the junior Gundog course with our almost 1 year old Cocker Spaniel and it was fantastic from start to finish. Both my dog and I thoroughly enjoyed every session.
The trainers, especially Jennie and Charley, were brilliant - incredibly knowledgable, enthusiastic, and supportive throughout. The small group sizes meant there was plenty of one-to-one attention, allowing each dog to progress at their own pace, with training adapted to suit different breeds and personalities.
We've already booked onto the loose lead training and are really looking forward to joining more classes in the future. Thank you to the whole team for such a positive and rewarding experience!"
