The life you imagined for you and your dog is only a few clicks away...
Your journey to truly understanding your dog's behaviour and building a great relationship starts here. We’re so much more than dog training.
Whatever your story,
we can help
Get a dog, they said...
At Honest Hounds, we know that dog guardianship isn't always easy. Dogs are complex, and learning to navigate their big feelings can feel isolating and stressful.
Our supportive community, Education Zone and Coaching tiers are designed to help you and your dog learn, grow and strengthen your bond.
Whatever your goals, we have the support to get you there.
Support for your every need
Our active, global community is full of opportunities to connect, learn and put the joy back into life with your dog.
Online Memberships
Deep-dive into dog behaviour, learn with our trainers and share your experiences openly, no matter where you are in the world.
In our welcoming community, there's a membership option to suit every dog guardian.
1:1 Training
Looking for some one-on-one support? Finding a trustworthy professional can feel daunting.
So we're building a community of dog trainers (though ours are so much more than that!) who we know and trust, working collaboratively online and in person with your dog's welfare and progress in mind.
In-Person Events
Join our highly skilled trainers to build your knowledge and confidence.
From Residential Retreats to Recall Workshops and a range of dog sports, our in-person events are designed to enhance relationship, confidence and skill and run across the UK all year round!
Honest Hounds is run by Founder Jessie Montague and Dog Coach Jessica Probst. Jessie set up the space to fill a void she'd felt herself as the guardian of a reactive dog.
A lack of trustworthy advice and judgemental spaces had left her feeling overwhelmed and alone with a world that felt smaller every day.
Unable to find the community she so desperately needed, she created one, building a global network that now offers support to thousands, through every possible situation.
As the community grows, so does the team that supports it and we now have trainers, walk leaders and experts ready to support you no matter your story.
Our story
We believe that all dogs and their families deserve to feel confident and live their happiest lives.
We also know that dog guardianship is complicated, and navigating it can feel isolating and hopeless.
So we're working to change that. We are building a global community of dog guardians, trainers and experts who want to reinvent the future for every dog.
Whatever the challenge you and your dog face, we know that with the right support you're only ever a few steps away from better.
A happier, more confident life with your dog is ready and waiting.

What our community thinks
It's an amazing non-judgmental community for all dog owners and the support it gives is amazing. It's helped us so much and we absolutely love joining in on the neutral walks. I would recommend the community to anyone and everyone, whether you have a reactive dog or you just want to meet some like-minded people to walk and talk with.

The support of the HH community is second to none. I have personally found the content on the platform so helpful and great advice has helped improve my handling skills - l had never before considered things like pattern interruption and a dog's neural pathways. It's been so enlightening and not stagnant, there are always new posts added and we all learn from each other.
Louise & Tink
I love having a judgement-free community to rant to, complain to, share my troubles and wins with. I enjoy having a community who are equally obsessed with dogs and training, and it's so refreshing talking to other like-minded people who all want the best for our dogs!

Beyond training
Honest Hounds began with one complicated dog and one owner feeling lost and alone. That journey led us to a behaviourist like no other, and everything changed.
Having worked our way to better, we knew that this knowledge and confidence needed sharing with the world, and Honest Hounds was created.
What we learned through our experience is that dog guardians need more than just a training plan. You need to feel included, to be inspired and to stay informed no matter where in the world you live.
That's why here at Honest Hounds you'll find pioneering knowledge and expertise, combined with a truly judgement-free community.
This is a space for everybody.
For those just looking to chat about their dogs to those at the end of their tether. It's for those who've tried everything and those just starting out.
For owners, trainers, experts and behaviourists. For anybody wanting to learn together and grow. Come and join us.
