Train Your Dog Recensioni 

PLEASE DO YOUR RESRARCH!
Previously onetoone dog training, run by Bob/Robert Metcalfe who has been banned from operating such businesses due to his horrendous behaviour towards animals.
He's "transferred" this new business into his colleagues name to try and escape detection.
Reviews are mainly paid for and are not genuine.

Great training. Great work in helping to train our large dog. Highly recommended. Thanks to the team. Amazing results.

Big thanks to Jamie and team for helping with our dog

Thanks to Jamie and the team for amazing obedience and protective dog training for my German Shepherd skylar, I now feel safe with myself and my two young children, I live in a bad area with strange people and I have had a few break ins, since doing the family obedience and protective training I am now five week into the programme and I feel 100% safe. Thank you so much for your help, you dont know how much it means and how much its help me so much.

Jamie and the team are an absolute fantastic lot. My dog Lennie has completely changed within 4 sessions! I can’t thank them enough and express in words how grateful I am to them for teaching not only Lennie but myself about his behavioural issues and how to overcome them

To Jamie and the team.
The best trainer I’ve experienced. We are on the brink of having to let go of our rescue due to multiple issues and multiple trainers however after just the assessment we are all confident as a family that we will be able to make this work, without having to use any violence! Our dog has made so much progress in literally half an hour! Please take my word for it, the team will help!

To Jamie and the team,
They are unreal dog trainers I could never fault them, they do an amazing job.
My dog was really nervous with dogs and people and wouldn’t walk with you but in just half an hour she’s a different dog, she walks next to you now she allows people to walk past her and not only that she allows dogs to as well.
We are amazed with this progress and could thank them enough.

When seeking the help of a trainer please do check company house.
This company is a rebrand of the disgraced one to one dog training school, its proprietor Mr Rob Metcalfe has a disgraceful history in the dog world the whole of the Uk leaving a plethera of unsatisfied customers and various CCJs from people seeking thousands back in refunds.
He may remove his name and rebrand but please do call RSPCA, SSPCA, trading standards and Newark and Sherwood council as well as Police fraud team who are all well aware of this gentleman, he will tell you the companies are nothing to do with him but rest assured he is still pocketting your money from both these business names.

I’ve been using Jamie and his team for the last 7 weeks, I have two AmStaffs which have always been reactive and as the terrier bread goes an absolute drive pull no matter what. We have been doing weekly sessions with Jamie with both dogs, the progress has been amazing such that my children can walk both dogs comfortably. Both dogs have also improved greatly in terms of behaviour, working other dogs it’s amazing how their behaviour has changed and now walking across other dogs is no longer a worry.

Cannot thank you enough and can’t wait to see where our progress takes us.

I cannot recommend this guide highly enough – it’s the most comprehensive, ethical, and practical resource I’ve found for personal protection dog training.

Right out of the gate, it dispels the dangerous myth that protection training makes dogs aggressive. Instead, it focuses on nurturing a calm, alert, and loyal companion who can distinguish between a real threat and everyday activity. The step-by-step approach is brilliantly structured: starting with rock-solid obedience and socialization (the non-negotiable foundations), then moving into protection-specific skills like controlled alerting, safe apprehension, and immediate disengagement on command. Every exercise is explained with clear, actionable steps that work for both new and experienced trainers.

When I was looking for a dog trainer with experience in protection training for my Doberman, I found Train Your Dog’s website. On the surface it looked as though I’d found the perfect place for what I needed. The websites homepage even said it has been training Dobermans since 2002! After contacting them I was phoned by a man introducing himself as Robert, head trainer. He was abrasive and rude to me from the very start of our conversation and launched into telling me his life story and current problems with “trolls” and “haters” who are jealous and out to ruin his good name. Looking back this entire call should have been my sign to go find another trainer but I had been reassured by Robert that he wouldn’t be the one to meet me for my dog’s assessment since he’d be in America, working with international customers at the date I’d scheduled. But lo and behold, Robert was the man to show up for the assessment, claiming his customer had cancelled and launching into an extremely difficult to believe story as to why. As soon as I handed him the lead, it was obvious he didn’t have a clue about how to train a dog for personal protection, his method of training was literally winding my dog up then trying to provoke a bite - without a bite suit or sleeve! No luring, no decoys, no pre assessment of my dog as I’d been promised on the phone either. I quickly reached the end of my rope with Robert. It was clear he had no idea what he was doing and he was putting my dog, himself and me in a dangerous situation. I called his bluff and asked him to leave, which prompted what I can only call an adult temper tantrum for “wasting his time”. Afterwards I looked deeper into the history of the company and found a litany of unhappy customers and abused dogs. I’ve learned my lesson the hard way, to always do due diligence on potential dog trainers and to not take everything at face value.

Well known dog abuser, please do not send your beloved pet to this horrible man. Rob or bob whatever he wants to call himself

If I could give 0 I would. This is a company owned by Rob Metcalf of One to One dog training. He will take your money and abuse your dog. A week boarding for him means taking your dog up and down the country in his van. He likes to charge £800 for this. You got caught out though didn’t you Rob. Don’t be fooled by this man’s lies.

The person who runs this company has changed its name many times over to avoid his reputation of being a con artist. Stay away from R Metcaffe he is an animal abuser and crook. Gave my anxious pup more anxiety.

If you're doing some research on this company you may wish to look at One to one dog training school. Metcalfe is clearly rebranding. Same methods, same 'trainer'.

Do a check on the socials for 121 and you'll see lots of customer reviews on the 'FB exposed' page .

Before any training took place, I was asked by the owner of this business to pay £200 in cash, which I unwittingly acquiesced to and to leave him a 5 star review.
After said training was over, I lost my cash but was very glad I refused to leave him a positive review.
I found this business online and reached out for training for our family’s Husky, Koda, who pulls on his lead and barks at other dogs.
During this training session the trainer was much too rough with our dog, yanking him off his paws on a grot collar, completely brushing off my and my daughters’ protests.
My breaking point came when the trainer physically assaulted Koda. He pulled Koda up, so he was bipedal, on his hind legs, holding him by his front legs, then, he suddenly kneed him in his chest!
Never in all my years of owning dogs have I ever heard of this being used as a training technique as the trainer so claimed.
Another thing I’d like to mention is that the trainer arrived nearly half an hour late yet still charged me £200, the full price for a full 1 hour session, despite only doing half an hour of bad work!
