Lani, my dog, loved these sessions - they were such fun. We learnt a variety of games to help reinforce what we were being taught and Debbie explained the theory behind what she was teaching and where I could improve things to help Lani.
The whole experience was positive and fun. I would 100% recommend Potters Paws .

Potter Paws are fantastic. I started with the total recall which was very instructive and lots of attention given to each dog even in a class environment. Being outside gives the closest feel to a normal walk which is perfect for training! Would recommend to anyone with a dog!!

I have a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, 12months old. While on holiday on a beach in Wales all the other dogs appeared to be off their leads. Maple did't have a great recall and would often jump up at people. All week she was on the lead on the beach. Well it was off to Potter Paws for a proper review for myself and Maple. The 4 week course was easy and intuitive and built on the positives. It was great for both of us. It gave me time to dedicate to Maple. With family life she is often the tag along. Its made me want to do more with Maple as she responded well and I am continuing to build on the lessons learn't. It also made me realise that Maple is really not that difficult compared to one or two of the other dogs on the course. Last weekend we went walking with another SBT off the lead and even in the middle of playing I was able to recall her back to me as a third dog bounded up wanting to play. I was really pleased with this recall, the best to date.

I have just completed the course with Tash and it’s been brilliant practising recall in the presence/distraction of other dogs and all the way through FUN using a mixture of games, treats and toys. Bella’s recall is ongoing work being a nosy over friendly Labrador, however since I have become more consistent and grown in confidence then so has her recall. My recall toolbox has expanded - thanks Tash!

I recently completed Total Recall online due to lock-down. Despite not having the distractions of other dogs around during the training it was still such a useful experience. I learnt a lot to ensure that I was able to gain my dog's focus when we are out and have noticed a massive improvement in his ability to come to me quickly. With our new skills we are both enjoying walks again, my dog is now back off-lead when it's safe to do so and thanks to Debbie's help and guidance the stress and worry of whether he would come back has gone. He does return and is staying with me when other dogs or interesting humans pass us.

Oscar and I did the Total Recall course recently. At 9 months old he was not great at recall with so many exciting sights, sounds and smells, not to mention other dogs, to distract him on walks! We learnt lots of useful strategies and had plenty of opportunities to practise recall skills. The class was small and friendly and fun for dogs and owners alike. We don't have it cracked yet but we do have the tools we need to keep practising!
