About PAUL BOLLANDS

This is Paul Bollands, head trainer at Bowland K9 Training at his training field

Experienced Dog Trainer

 

At Bowland K9 Training, I offer personalised 1-on-1 training sessions that cover all aspects of dog behaviour and obedience. With a lifelong experience of owning and training dogs, I made the decision in 2020 to pursue a career change and share my expertise as a dog trainer. My ultimate goal is to help dog owners develop the best possible relationship with their pets, ensuring that dogs receive the attention they need and become the main focus of their owners. By tailoring training methods to suit each unique dog, I can address a wide range of behavioural issues and assist owners in building a strong bond with their dogs. Whether it's teaching basic obedience commands or tackling more complex behavioural problems, my dedication lies in helping dogs and their owners achieve a harmonious and fulfilling partnership.

On a personal note, I am the proud owner of three dogs: Ash, my Border Collie, who is highly determined and excels in obedience; Kane, my faithful Labrador, who will do anything for a treat and is an exceptional retriever; and Fred, my Belgian Malinois, who is mischievous but also loves training and bite work. These dogs not only bring immense joy to my life but also serve as invaluable teaching tools. It has been proven that dogs learn more effectively from their own kind than from humans, making them an integral part of my training approach.
