Who are we?
What do we offer?
Tartan Whistle Dog Training is built on real experience and a practical approach to working with dogs.
Led by Michael Emans, a former military and police dog handler, we focus on helping everyday dog owners understand their dogs and improve behaviour through clear, structured training.
We offer one-on-one training tailored to you and your dog, covering everything from foundation obedience and behaviour modification through to more specialised training such as scent detection, tracking, mantrailing, and gun dog work. Our aim is to provide straightforward, effective training that builds confidence, improves control, and creates a better relationship between you and your dog.
