# Poise Dog Training Liverpool
Poise Dog Training, led by fully qualified instructor John Michael Galloway, provides personalised in-home dog and puppy training across Liverpool. With a background as a former K9 Runner and ten years' professional dog walking experience, Galloway brings extensive expertise in canine behaviour and training methodology.
The business specialises in addressing unwanted behaviours such as excessive barking, jumping, aggression and separation anxiety, whilst also delivering obedience training covering commands like sit, stay, recall and heel work. Poise takes a fear-free, positive reinforcement approach to training, recognising that proper dog training is fundamental to building a balanced relationship between owner and pet.
What distinguishes Poise is its commitment to convenience and individualisation. Rather than group classes, training takes place in your home where dogs feel comfortable and relaxed. Sessions begin indoors before progressing to local parks and public settings as confidence builds. Galloway's unique background—including research into wolf behaviour and feral dog ecology in South America—informs a sophisticated understanding of canine psychology beyond standard training techniques.
The service caters to new puppy owners requiring early socialisation and training, rescue dog owners addressing behavioural issues, and established pet owners seeking obedience refreshers. Initial consultations identify root causes of misbehaviour, with follow-up support provided via phone and email, ensuring sustained progress between sessions.
