As a beginner in the sport of Three Sheepdog Trialling I have been very fortunate to have attended some of Mick's Schools - he has been unstinting with his advice and encouragement. As a retired veterinarian I thought I knew a bit about dogs but Mick has taken my understanding of them to a new level. His practical calm and analytical approach and his ability to explain complex ideas makes it easy to know what to do and when and why during the trial and how to correct problems in myself and the dog and most importantly how to practise to develop these skills. I can thoroughly recommend Mick's Schools and his teaching methods.
This is my second School with Mick, I will be back for a third. Mick has the rare ability to make complex ideas obvious and achievable even to beginners like myself. He has analysed his successful methods and reduced them to a readily understandable set of instructions, this is a rare gift. My dogs and I thank him.
