Dog Training
Puppy or adult dog training, I use only positive reinforcement training techniques. All training will be rooted in sound behavioural science and tailored for your dog’s unique situation to promote obedience and enhance a positive relationship between you and your dog..
Behavioural Therapy
Behavioural assessments go beyond basic training to assess all aspects of your dog’s situation and generally last 90-120 mins. During the assessment we will agree a behaviour plan for your dog and start priority foundation training & behaviour protocols
Welfare & Vet Visits
Does your dog need a quick check-in while you are at work? Maybe they need to be let out to toilet, have a quick cuddle or maybe they need a vet visit or to be given their medications? Let’s discuss how I can help.
Remote consultation / follow-up
A first contact phone call is always free. After your first assessment or training session if you need a bit of follow-up advice we can sometimes do that by phone or video chat. I will usually ask for video of the problem behaviour to be sent by WhatsApp ahead of a phone / video call. Remote sessions are sometimes not advisable, let’s discuss your situation.
About me…
In 2014 I adopted two rescue dogs, both having behavioural and medical issues and know very well how it feels to be a bit lost when it comes to training and addressing behaviour problems. Inspired by the help I received from a behaviourist I went on to study successive courses with the Institute of Modern Dog Training (IMDT) between 2014-16, achieving an Open College Network (OCN) validated level V qualification in “Understanding and Working with Canine Behaviour – Analysis & Application“. I currently foster a German Shepherd with severe behavioural problems.
I have a passion for providing top-notch, ethical care, helping clients understand their dog’s behaviour and providing training using positive reinforcement techniques. Clients will always be offered honest assessments of training needs with options for on-going training and / or therapy.
