Can anyone recommend a gun dog trainer in Wiltshire - ideally in the Trowbridge area :)

My friend is at the end of her tether with her dog :( He's perfect in every way apart from recall. He was fine with it then he got silly at the end of the walk so she did loads of recall during the walk putting him on the lead, letting him off etc but now he just won't come back at all! He got on to the road last time and had to be cornered in someone's garden :eek: He's ok with a long line on but her other dog is terrified of it. As he's also obsessed with sheep and other livestock (will run several fields over to find some - this has also just come on suddenly) she wants to speak to someone about using a shock collar or similar. He isn't food or toy orientated at all. He's a very high energy dog and needs to have a good run every day to let off steam.
 
I met Allyson at a training day last month, for working trials not gundogs but she certainly knows her dogs. I believe her L/h weim was the highest qualifed in the breed..
