Sharon Kelly Canine Behaviour in short

Sharon Kelly Canine Behaviour runs group classes, one-to-one obedience and socialisation walks from Telford, with the Sunday walks capped at a handful of dogs. Everything is described as reward-based, and the homepage states insurance alongside two decades of experience with difficult dogs. Booking runs through the site's contact section. Walks run on alternate Sundays, with class bookings taken through the same form.

This review finds the public record the weakest in the set, with a below-four Google rating from only a few reviews. We rate the small-group format as a genuine plus for nervous dogs. What counts against Sharon Kelly Canine Behaviour is the combination of that thin record with no published prices and no named qualifications yet to check.
