Helping you live a better life with your dog

We understand how important it is for your dog to be happy, healthy, and obedient.

We use proven methods from years of expertise to make your training fun and effective for all the family (humans and four-legged friends included!) Your dog is as individual as you, so we always put your needs at the heart of what we do. We can’t wait to support you.

How can we help?

Our Story

After a number of years as a Police Dog Handler and qualified Dog Trainer, Harry decided to leave the Police force (along with his trusty side kick, police dog Leo) to set up Origin Dog Training.

His love of dogs led to a love of dog training and now he supports his clients to feel confident, have fun and enjoy being a dog owner, whatever that throws at them!

What our (human) clients say about us

Can not recommend Origin highly enough! Rocco is our first dog and he's been a brilliant and essential support for making our lives with a Labrador puppy easier and our walks far less stressful! We all enjoy the training sessions - especially Rocco - and his recall and heel walking has improved dramatically after just a couple of lessons. The depth of Harry’s knowledge is impressive and he makes each lesson a lot of fun too.

Kate & Rocco

Thought I’d got myself a puppy, turns out it’s a small tank with selective hearing. This chap is headstrong and powerful and as a new dog owner I needed to build up my confidence so that our time together is fun and safe. Harry really gets dogs and shares his knowledge in a relatable way. It’s working for us so far, me and my lad understand each other and communicate better. Thoroughly recommend.

Kate & Percy

I have rescue GSD cross who is dog reactive and unsure of strangers. I love that Harry breaks down why we do things, demonstrates and illustrates it with real life examples. It gives me a deeper understanding and armed with that I can now pinpoint why things went wrong for example. It’s called dog training but in reality he is training me to be a better handler, which happens to benefit my dog. Thank you Harry for all your hard work!
