Residential Dog Training in Birmingham

Andreius was fantastic with us from the start, giving both me and my dog total confidence that we could achieve what we wanted. His clear instructions, patience and confidence have seen us make progress quickly and return to really enjoy training again. I would highly recommend Andreius and Miracle K9 Academy.

Really pleased with the training session. He helped me massively with getting my dog to walk properly on a loose lead, and the difference was noticeable straight away. He explained everything clearly and showed me exactly what I needed to do so I can keep working on it at home.

Really knowledgeable, patient and easy to work with. Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to improve their dog’s training and behaviour.

we searched for a good trusted trainer for our dog, he's a American bulldog cross staffy, our dog was very mistreated before we rescued him at 12 weeks and has had trouble excepting anyone other than myself, wife and my 3 boys who has imprinted on heavily! we had a dog who, would lunge anyone who walked past my children or my wife and weighing 31kg is not a good thing ! andrejus from the moment we met him, had us drawn in by his professionalism! his knowledge for k9 is unreal ! our dog duke lunged at andrejus on first meet, where most trainers would of declined our dog duke, but andrejus focus was immense and was not scared by it ! instead took the challenge on ! our dog was not only well looked after for 2 weeks but like a different dog ! I am now more. Confident when walking duke he has better focus and no longer lunges at peolpe or other dogs if you need your dog training this is the man and will continue to use him for 1 to1 thank you, your a legend

My puppy went to Andrejus as part of the puppy boarding programme and he was absolutely amazing. Not only did he crate train her and teach her all general obedience but she is also absolutely amazing with any noises including fireworks. He clearly cares a lot about all the dogs he trains and the frequent videos are really reassuring. I cannot recommend Andrejus’ boarding programme as it has allowed my puppy to gain all the fundamental skills to become a confident dog.

I genuinely cannot recommend this trainer highly enough. From start to finish, the professionalism, knowledge and dedication have been outstanding, and the results with my dog, Bruno, have exceeded every expectation I had.

Bruno attended a residential dog training programme, and the transformation has been incredible. Before training he had a number of behaviours we wanted to improve, including lead pulling, recall, engagement and general obedience. Throughout the programme I received regular updates, videos and honest feedback, which gave me complete confidence that Bruno was in the best hands.

What impressed me most was that this wasn’t just about teaching commands – it was about building structure, clear communication and teaching Bruno how to make the right decisions. Every correction, reward and exercise had a purpose behind it, and it was obvious that everything was tailored to Bruno rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.

His loose lead walking is fantastic, his recall has improved massively, his engagement is on another level, and he is far more focused, calm and responsive. The e-collar training was introduced professionally and responsibly, with clear explanations on how to continue the training correctly once Bruno came home. I now feel confident handling him because I understand why I’m doing things, not just what to do.

One thing that really stood out was the genuine care shown towards Bruno. It was clear throughout that his welfare always came first, and he wasn’t simply being trained—he was being understood. The balance of structure, fairness and consistency has produced a dog that is happier, more confident and much easier to live with.

If you’re looking for a dog trainer for obedience training, behavioural issues, recall training, lead pulling, reactivity or residential dog training, I honestly wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him. The level of knowledge, experience and passion is second to none, and the support even after the training has been excellent.

Thank you for everything you’ve done for Bruno. You’ve not only transformed his behaviour, but you’ve also given me the knowledge and confidence to continue his training properly. It has been one of the best investments I’ve ever made, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my dog.

We honestly cannot thank Andrejus, Miracle K9 enough for what he did for our Staffie, Bunny.
​Before finding Andrejus, we were constantly worrying about Bunny’s behaviour around other dogs. Between the reactivity, stubbornness, and heavy lead pulling, she would completely lose focus the moment we stepped outside. We just wanted her to live her best, happiest life, and honestly, we just wanted to be able to take her down to the pub for a quiet drink without her going absolutely crazy and doing full-speed zoomies - shes like a rocket!

​The impact of our 1-to-1 sessions were immediate, Andrejus used his own dogs to help Bunny work through her reactivity in a safe, controlled way, which was incredible to see. Bunny then went to stay with him for a long-term board-and-train, and the communication was absolutely brilliant. We received constant updates, photos, and video demonstrations of the training in action, which gave us total peace of mind while she was away.
​Andrejus showed so much genuine love and affection to Bunny. He clearly has an amazing, natural talent and uses a holistic approach that looks at the whole dog, building up her confidence rather than just forcing commands.

​Today, Bunny is happy, playful, and truly everything we always knew she could be. If you are struggling with your dog and want real, lasting transformation from someone who genuinely cares, look no further than Miracle K9.

I discovered Andrejus on Instagram shortly after rescuing my Staffy × German Shepherd from Birmingham Dogs Home at 9 months old. She would often jump up, bite the lead, and sometimes even bite me when out walking. She seemed frustrated on the lead and was constantly distracted by other dogs, pigeons, and pretty much anything around her.

In our first session, Andrejus showed me how to walk her properly while training her at the same time, and he introduced a structured routine to our walks. From that very first session, I started seeing improvements. Just two weeks later, she was a completely different dog—no more lead biting, pulling, or constant frustration.

I can't thank Andrejus enough. His training methods really work, and the transformation in such a short space of time has been incredible. I would highly recommend him to anyone struggling with their dog's behaviour.

Can’t thank Andrejus enough for sharing his wisdom in our 1 hour training session. We’ve had sessions with behaviourists and trainers before with no success in helping our dogs lead reactivity, but 1 hour with Andrejus and it’s given us the confidence to see how with proper handling we can work to keep improving! Having his dog there to help with the practice was invaluable. Worth every penny!

I have just walked pete for the first time since having K9 training with Andrejus, what a pleasure it is to be able to walk past people and their dogs with no barking ,lunging, or reactivity from my dog, Andrejus has done an amazing job
He is totally professional with honest brilliant advise, if you don't look forward to walking your dog because of reactivity or aggression I promise this dog trainer is the best to help you sort that and any problem you have with your dog. I already feel more confident and now look forward to our next walk.
Thank you so much.

Me and my partner recently had our 6 month old Cavapoo, Ruby, attend 4 weeks of training with Andrejus and we couldn’t be happier with how much she has learned.

From day one, we had not expected so many videos to keep us updated on her progress, and as 4 weeks seemed like such a long time to be away from our pup we really appreciated how much we were kept in the loop and to see her so happy made things easier.

Aside from the training, it is clear that Andrejus loves dogs and really made our puppy feel at home as soon as she arrived. Ruby hadn’t had much time to socialise with other dogs before she went here so we were so pleased to see her being introduced to other dogs both big and small in a safe environment.

After returning home, Ruby has not only learnt so many new tricks and commands, but also has a calmer temperament and is less reactive to loud noises, we can even use the hoover with her in the room and she doesn’t react at all.

We couldn’t recommend Miracle K9 Academy more and would love to say thank you once again to Andrejus for all that he has done.

A year ago, I was searching everywhere for someone who could truly help train my boy. No shade to other trainers at all, but after trying three different trainers locally, their training styles just didn’t feel right for us.

Then I came across Miracle K9 on my feed. What stood out immediately was the connection Andrejus had with the dogs in his videos. It was obvious this wasn’t just a job or a quick way to make money, you could genuinely see how much he loves what he does and how passionate he is about helping dogs, especially the challenging ones.

Benzo went to Miracle K9 for reactivity and obedience training for 4 weeks, and honestly, dropping him off was terrifying for me. It was the longest I’d ever been away from my dog.

But I truly had nothing to worry about.

Andrejus reassured me from day one and kept in constant contact throughout the whole process. Every single day I received training videos, updates, and clips of Benzo enjoying playtime. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was being cared for properly and genuinely loved while he was there.

Now Benzo is home, and Andrejus has continued to support us every step of the way. He doesn’t just train your dog, he trains you too. He understands how important it is for owners to fully understand the process so you can continue getting the best out of your dog long term.

I honestly couldn’t have found anyone better. The communication, dedication, support, and seeing my happy pup thriving means everything to me. Miracle K9 truly sets your dog up for success for life, as long as you stick with the process.

Thank you so much, Andrejus; you’re an absolute gem, and I’m beyond grateful we found you. Your support means the world to us.

I cannot recommend Miracle K9 enough — 1000000%%%%%%!

If you are looking for any type of dog training you don’t need to continue looking any further. I can’t speak highly enough of Andrejus, his wife and team for the work they put in. We sent our 1 year old mixed breed hunting dog for 4 week residential training as we had problems correcting her reactivity towards other dogs and was becoming a worsening problem. Within 4 weeks Andrejus has improved her beyond belief and she is walking off lead and not bothering with any dogs. Don’t get me wrong we know we have our own work to do now she is home to continue the work he has put in but we are amazed with the difference in a short time and comfortably walking her wherever we need to go. Andrejus is very informative yet straight to the point but relaxed all in one. We are looking forward to improving our dogs behaviour further with the training and support provided. Thanks again for everything

Had a first training session today and can I just say how amazing it was! He was listening to my problems with my dog and he helped correct it within a hour if that. I would definitely recommend to people.
