Louise Doran,
Merseyside.

A year ago, I felt like I didn’t know what I was doing and was not giving my young Labrador the best start as a gundog. My aim was to be able to take her picking up on a shoot and through regular training with David I was able to achieve this. For me, training sessions were as much about training the handler as the dog. David was both patient and motivating. It was nice to find someone with expertise who was interested in helping me to succeed. He has inspired me to do well and I look forward to working with him to develop as a handler in order to bring out the best in my dogs.

I met David in Lajatico a beautiful little town near Pisa in Tuscany, Italy, where he held a training course following the invitation of the Working Italian Retrievers Club. In addition to his kindness and sympathy I noticed that he had a deep knowledge of dogs. The exercises he devised for us were clear and well set so that handler and dog were able to concentrate and succeed and by consequence learn exactly what was expected from the dog and also improve the ways in which to train. We also learned to trust our dogs and he constantly advised us on handling.
Thank you, David.
