Story

Lewis practices a progressive, reward based modern approach when training dogs.

He aims at spreading as much up to date information as possible to help owners and dogs alike.

The dogs featured in his videos are dogs that he has trained. None of them belong to him personally.

Mission

My mission as an animal lover and trainer is to promote humane and effective training for all dogs big and small.

I want to educate people on the most up to date and most effective techniques to use with their dogs to help create happy dogs and owners alike.

Dogs have evolved away from their closest cousin the grey wolf and for too long dogs have been slumbered with the label of pack animals that need a dominant pack leader as an owner.

I'm here to say actually no you don't need to be a pack leader. You don't need to act tough around your dog. You can just be yourself and create a happy, well socialised member of the family without using choke chains, without hitting them on the nose, without jabbing them, without squirting them with water, without yanking the leash.

Just take the lead and use your brain not pain!

Happy training!
