I have listed status with the Kennel Club to run training courses under The Good Citizen Dog Scheme at Puppy, Bronze, Silver and Gold level. My name is Andy Gussey and I have over thirty years of experience in dog training. I was a Police dog handler for 11 years training and working German Shepherd dogs and specialist search Spaniels. Since 2001 I have helped other people train their dogs; I have
listed status with the Kennel Club to run classes covering the Good Citizen Dog Scheme.I conduct classes for puppies, beginners and advanced dog handlers and I can schedule one to one sessions to help dog owners train and handle their dogs. I have worked with a wide variety of different breeds from Great Danes to Border Terriers and everything in between with a variety of training and behavioural needs. As well as my Police German Shepherd dogs I have always owned English Springer Spaniels, I love their energy and character. I was brought up surrounded by working gun dogs becoming involved in their training as soon as I was old enough and later working them myself. I now find myself to be the proud owner of a miniature Dachshund, full of character. I have also been involved in training a number of therapy, wellbeing and assistance dogs for a variety of purposes.
