Growing up around Labradors and Spaniels ignited my passion for dogs from a young age, leading me to pursue a career in canine behaviour. By 2011, I was already working professionally with dogs, but my enthusiasm for dog obedience training was reignited when my wife brought home a two-month-old beagle. I soon realised that my previous professional training hadn't fully prepared me for the challenges of raising such a spirited dog, prompting me to immerse myself in the study of canine behaviour. I completed hours of online courses, worked in kennels, and learned as much as possible about effective dog training methods. My obsession with dogs deepened.
In 2013, a German Shepherd became my new companion and personal project. He had issues with recall, reactivity, and walking on the lead. However, after countless hours of dog recall training, dog lead training, dog loose lead walking training, and positive reinforcement techniques, I confirmed that the knowledge I had gained was effective. He blossomed into an incredible companion.
The impact of my German Shepherd, Hoby, further motivated me to wonder how many more dogs I could help. This desire to make a difference in the lives of dogs and their owners led to the creation of Paw and Disorder, providing professional dog training in Hungerford and beyond.
With my knowledge, experience, and dedication, I have changed the lives of countless dogs through effective dog training. Today, my passion lies in working with large breeds, but I am more than happy to address any issue with any dog. Whether you need a dog trainer for behavioural support, remote dog training, or help to stop your dog pulling on the lead, I'm committed to helping owners and their dogs achieve lasting results throughout Hungerford and remotely.
"Spike" has been superb. knowledgeable, friendly and really patient. Baxter was struggling to recall and pulling me everywhere when walking on the lead. Within the first training session Scott managed to get Baxter to recall to me and now Baxter walks to heel. We have a completely different dog now thanks to Scott "spike" and his training.

Can't thank Spike enough. Our cocker spaniel Mabel was refusing to recall when out on walks. We were afraid to let her off the lead but after two training walks with Spike at Paw And Disorder Mabel's recall now faultless. Spike also took the time to explain boundaries inside and outside the house and was always on the phone when we needed further advice. I would definitely recommend Paw And Disorder and when we get a brother or sister for Mabel we'll be using Spike again.

Scott is helping us through the dog behaviour maze. Our 19 month old rottie loves learning through play. What an amazing time we are both having. Can’t thank you enough.

We always look forward to our sessions with Scott at Paw and Disorder! His training is fun, engaging, and really tailored to both us and our dog, Hippo. Whenever Hippo spots Scott out and about, he gets so excited — which says it all! During training, he’s focused and eager to learn, and we’ve seen such amazing progress. We genuinely love our sessions and will definitely continue working with Scott. Highly recommend! 🐾

I can’t recommend Scott highly enough. We had been having recall problems with my 5 year old German Wirehaired Pointer Millie for years, and within a few sessions she is like a different dog. Thanks Scott.

Scott is a superstar. He treats our little ones like his own, and their tails are wagging when they hear "Uncle Spike" pull up.

I can highly recommend Paw & Disorder. Lead pulling and recall issues were causing dog walks to be a chore rather than a pleasure but since working with Spike a corner has been turned. Through informative instruction, guidance and a great deal of patience ( more for me that Molly!) Dog walks have become a lot less stressful and enjoyable. Thoroughly grateful for Paw & Disorder's help and can wholeheartedly recommend them.

I have known Spike for a few years, and he’s nothing short of a true professional and an outstanding dog trainer. Spike is a genuinely great guy and comes with a wealth of knowledge and experience, ensuring you and your K9 will be in the best hands possible. Although we have only had our little Disney for a fews years, the advice and tips I’ve received from Spike no doubt proved invaluable to this day. Without question, I would highly recommend Spike to anyone as I know they and their K9 would benefit greatly.

As Alice is our first dog, we didn’t have much experience in training her. We were worried that our lack of knowledge might lead her to be poorly behaved. Fortunately, we came across Paw And Disorder, and they guided us step by step on how to train Alice, manage her routine, and provided us with valuable knowledge as dog owners. We are very grateful for all the sessions and how effectively they have helped Alice integrate into our family and lifestyle.

Before contacting Pawanddisorder I would walk my dog at stupid times of day/night to avoid people , dogs , and everything else she was so reactive/aggressive and so stressed , I used to dread “walkies” , but now even after only 4 sessions my cane corso is so much more relaxed ! No more barking or lunging , more obedience on walks , and she actually trusts me a lot more , we don’t use punishment , we just take it steady every session to ensure the dog is calm , engaged and focused on me . 5* given truly a lifesaver ! Highly recommend

Initially drawn to Paw & Disorder for the name but stayed because it turns out my dogs weren’t the only problem, and humans are trained at no extra cost. If you’re looking for a no-judgement, no-ridiculous-rules approach and real-life training that works, I can’t recommend Scott highly enough.

Spike has been superb with our shepherd. We’d been struggling with recall and lead walking but within three session our boy is now like a different dog. All our sessions have been fun, informative and engaging. We’re so pleased we went to spike at paw and disorder.
