Martin Gleadow , our canine behaviourist, has many years experience of dealing with dogs and their behaviour problems.  As well as being a dog lover and owner for nearly 50 years,  Martin has worked with both individuals and rescue centres in order to rehabilitate problem dogs.
Martin has been involved with Northern Staffordshire Bull Terrier Rescue since it was set up in 1990.  He worked alongside Bob Whittall in assessing dogs, home-checking and rehoming.  He has also fostered a number of  rescued Staffies as well as offering behavioural advice to fosterers and new keepers of rehomed dogs.

Martin works with Animal Concern West Cumbria,doing home visits over behavioural issues and giving rehabilitation advice for dogs in new homes and also in the refuge.This has resulted in a lot of difficult dogs to be successfully rehomed.

Martin has worked with many breeds of dog to solve nuisance barking, aggression towards people and dogs ,nervousness, jumping up and other leadership isssues including the common complaint of pulling on the lead.

He is a firm believer that the rehabilitation of most dogs start with the lead walk and will train you so that you are walking your dog not it walking you. Training will then take place to enable you to deal with your dogs problems for the future. The sessions are at your home and notes will be left with you at the time of the visit or forwarded afterwards. Calm assertive methods with kindness, praise and affection given at the right time are used.

Martin covers the North West of England that includes ALL of CUMBRIA, LANCASHIRE, SOUTH SCOTLAND. NORTH YORKSHIRE. It must be worth while, giving me a call,have a chat about your dogs problems and arrange a home visit.
