Cedric

With more than eight years of professional experience, Cedric has spent his career helping dogs and owners build partnerships that hold up over the long term. He has served as head trainer for multiple companies, a role that involved leading training programs, mentoring other trainers, and holding responsibility for the standard of service delivered to every client on the books. That leadership background is worth noting for owners weighing up their options, because it means Cedric has not only trained dogs but has been trusted to set the benchmark that other professionals work to.

The thing clients consistently value most about working with Cedric is his commitment to communication. His position is that training is not only about teaching dogs, it is equally about teaching owners, and he measures his own success by whether a family can keep building on the work long after the formal program has finished. That is a deliberately higher bar than simply handing back a dog that performs well on the day. He believes training should be enjoyable, rewarding and shaped around the individual dog rather than run to a template. Whether a family is welcoming a new puppy, polishing the manners of a dog they already love, or working through a behavioural hurdle that has started to affect daily life, Cedric guides them with patience and encouragement, drawing on a positive approach balanced with the right tools and techniques to bring out the best in the dog in front of him.
