Good content, and sorted a technical issue out, with friendly helpful staff within 24hrs.

I've worked through many of their on-line training courses and I play the games I have learned with my dogs. Concept based training is a game-changer! I have also found their support team to be prompt and helpful any time I have had questions.

This is the most comprehensive fun and powerful dog training I’ve come across. It’s no chore and is inspiring to continue the training bonding process. A great way to build a fun and strong bond with your best canine buddy(ies). My kids loved getting involved too because it’s fun!!!

Simple to use and understand exercises for my Border Collie. I understand that this form of training might not be for everyone but I am more than happy with the site and it's content. All my queries have been dealt with quickly.

Possibly one of the worst companies I've ever dealt with: disingenuous, pushy and verging on creepy are just a few of the things I could say about them.
On top of everything, even though I've unsuscribed from their mailing lists umpteen times, they keep littering my inbox with their ridiculous emails.

Some reasonable content, but nothing much that you won't find on any other concept training site - nothing 'revolutionary', as their ridiculously frequent email begging letters imply (nor is it possible to opt out, as they don't segment transactional messages from marketing messages - you either let them flood your inbox with continual 'special offers' or you get no communication at all).

My issue with 'AbsoluteDogs' is the 'AbsoluteIncompetence' of their web team. There are near-constant issues preventing me from actually viewing the courses I've paid for. The "We're improving the site" banner has been there for about a year now - and almost every single time I return to the site, yet another new and interesting problem prevents me from viewing the courses I have paid for. I suddenly don't have access to some courses; links are suddenly wrong; videos display placeholders with 404 messages; my password (saved in a password manager) is suddenly 'incorrect' and their password reset flow fails; etc.

To compound this, their default replies are patronising and infantilising ("oopsie, those naughty squirrels got in there", "some things went a bit wonky while we were adding sparkles to the site" etc.) - it's frankly nauseating. Once they have replied, it generally takes about a week for the issue to be fixed. I've been through this process literally half a dozen times at this point, and it has now exhausted my patience.

I'd ask for help on their Facebook group, but it's like the Moonies in there - nothing but ecstatic, fawning praise is tolerated.

AbsoluteDogs online training modules have been a wonderful guide for a my training of my dog. We have created a beautiful bond between us. His work is so happy and joyful, making his addition to our family a fun and extremely rewarding experience. It is such a rewarding experience to have a dog by my side who really wouldn't rather be anywhere else! Thank you AbsoluteDogs! I highly recommend this program.

Many thanks for the kind and quick response(s)...you're an awesome team!

I am a dog trainer and I love absolute dogs training games. I teach my students the games and it really helps their dogs. I also use the games with my own dogs! I especially love the DMT and the Total recall games!

Absolute dogs offer great online training opportunities at reasonable prices. I've been training with them since 2022. They're always available to help. I have a very successful dog training business because of them and their support.

I love confidence circuit badges and so does my dog everest it's helping her agility career it's fun it's fitness wow what a badges happy I brought it
I wouldn't be without it

Great way to train your dog.
Not only a party for te furry doggies, but also for the not-furry humans!
Supernice, superkind people, trainers and also the people of the customer-service.
I am almost addicted to all the games, I recommend this company big time!

Absolute Dogs are amazing - came across them when I couldn't cope with the behaviour of my rescue dog & although I signed up for courses & 1-1 training I was too impatient & relinquished Mad Max back to the rescue centre (who brilliantly rehomed him to a farm where he is living his best life). They always do what they promise to do, their live sessions are awesome & it is a great community full of people who can help with your dog's behaviour. All of this is done through the power of games that help your dog & you. Just wish I had found them sooner.

Fabulous games based training. Suitable for everyone. You can do what fits in with your lifestyle and find what works for you. Informative easy to follow training videos. Real life examples. The community are very supportive and span the globe. If you want to learn to train your dog in a fun, positive and happy way this is the space for you. It really has been a game changer for me and my dogs.

I love everything about ABSOLUTE DOGS !
The learning , the possitivity , the community around it !
And it is not just dog training , they look after the people : mental health is covered as well!
It is a community that keeps giving ♥️
I love how it begint with REAL LIFE results like household manners and if you want you can build it up to : tricks , obedience , agility , disc dog ,….
♥️♥️♥️

I found Absolute Dogs shortly after adopting my Saluki mix rescue in 2021. I have always trained my dogs using positive reinforcement methods & each of them grew up to be amazing family members, but I knew that Gus, because of his terrible past had different struggles than I was used to dealing with, so I was looking for a new approach. He came to me with a very pessimistic view of the world, was not very confident, struggled out & about when seeing other dogs & people and did not walk nicely on a leash. I am so happy that I found this great community. I am not sure where we would be today without Absolute Dogs & games-based training. I now have a dog that is more optimistic, walks beautifully on a loose leash, is able to disengage from the environment & loves to play games & engage with me. It is amazing to see how growing the skills that he was lacking transfer from the home to real life out & about. We still have some ways to go but life in 2025 looks so much different & better than it did in 2021. That is all thanks to Absolute Dogs & games-based training.

I was having some IT trouble (for a millennial, I’m not as savvy as I should be), and Absolute Dogs was so helpful with helping me get access to what I needed. We’ve been really happy with all of our courses and games that we’ve used, and having such wonderful customer service is icing on the cake.

I have tried many dog trainers over the past 15 months and wasted a lot of money on ones who have been absolutely no help at all to ones who have used aversive training methods. I joined Absolute Dogs and it's the best thing I've done for my dog and me. They are very experienced in all doggy things and their help and advice is second to none. There are no dog problems they can't help with and they are so kind and patient. I had been considering rehoming my boy, Pablo, because of his behavioural issues and I'd even been advised by a vet that it was the right thing to do. With a heavy heart I asked AD for help and now I feel we are getting somewhere. Pablo is learning to be very much calmer and we're developing a better relationship. Thank you AD you are all stars

We took on our working cocker when he was 5 months old in 2017 and he was hyper and wild!
I worked and played with him for weeks using the Absolute Dog videos and games. He responded really well and I can report that he has been the best dog since then - coming when called and walking so nicely beside me. He is now nearly 8 but I am gifting one of the Absolute Dog videos to my son who is about to get a puppy. I can’t recommend their courses enough

I have owned dogs for about 40 years. Being very interested in positive dogtraining I found AD 3,5 years ago. This was dogtraining next level!!!
I became a prodogtrainer, visited Devon Dogs 3 times and the experience is better and better every day.
