I am delighted to recommend Ade from Walking Paws Ipswich as a dog trainer. His approach is exceptional, and I cannot speak highly enough of the care and expertise he brings to his work. Ade is incredibly patient and gentle with every dog he works with. His training methods are kind, effective, and tailored to each dog's individual needs and temperament. What really stands out is how caring he is, he treats every dog as if they were his own, which makes all the difference. His calm and understanding nature put both dogs and their owners at ease immediately. Ade takes the time to really get to know each dog, building trust and confidence throughout the training process.

If you are looking for a dog trainer who combines professionalism with real heart, Ade is the person to call. He's patient, knowledgeable, caring, and an absolute pleasure to work with. I would not hesitate to recommend Ade from Walking Paws Ipswich to anyone seeking a trainer who will treat their beloved pet with the kindness and respect they deserve.

I am now in my seventies and have arthritis in my hands. Before I bought my Labrador puppy I consulted Ade and asked for help with his training which I knew I would need. We have had one-to-one training with Ade once a week for 18 months which has been carefully tailored to make us safe and happy wherever we are. Ade now says that my dog knows exactly how to behave and that I need to catch up!

The emphasis has been on voice command and response to a whistle. My young dog has been trained not to cross my path to avoid tripping me up and to walk quietly by my side on a lead when necessary so there is no pressure on my hands. He is often off-lead as I have confidence in his recall.

Ade's training has been invaluable.

I cannot recommend Ade more highly - the confidence that I have gained when walking my dog, the understanding of the stress my dog was under when he was walking and how to advocate for him is incalculable. I can't say that he changed overnight or that we don't have more learning and training to do but I am confident for the first time in a long time that we will be ok.

I had tried various other training methods which didn't seem to work with my very anxious dog. I knew that we were 90% there but I was doing something wrong - Ade immediately saw the mistakes and guided me in how best to correct them. His training technique is excellent and designed to install confidence and calmness in both me and my dog. There was the initial observation, the presentation of technique, the practice and finally the production stage which gives you the necessary belief that change is possible. He guided us to where we needed to be through patience, understanding and humour, I can confidently say that he is very good at his trade.
