Dog Squad

Dog Squad Providing positive reward based dog training for all ages and breeds. IMDT registered. This is where I started my journey into training with my own dogs.

My Story

I'm Amy owner & trainer of "Dog Squad" have been around all breeds of family dogs since I was little. My first "problem" GSD came home in 2005 a 3 year old German Shepherd, which came from a rehoming centre, she wasn't great with other dogs and could be "funny" with people. Working for many years with a well respected ex police dog handler, who taught me a lot on all things GSD, using tr

aditional training methods. Since 2005 I've re-homed 9 adult GSDs from the age of 2 years upwards some with behavioural problems & some just looking for some home comforts. 2 GSD puppies & 1 Labrador. Over these years, each one has given me new challenges to work out and help "them be them" and I have undertaken lots of different training workshops, learning the new "modern" ways combined with having been involved in training clubs & classes both as an owner/trainer & helping other owners through 1-2-1 sessions with all different breeds. My page is new but have been in the training world for some years and I am keen to meet and work with new owners to pass on some of my experiences to help bring out the best in you and your dog.

My Story

I’m Amy owner & trainer of “Dog Squad” have been around all breeds of family dogs since I was little.

My first “problem” GSD came home in 2005 a 3 year old German Shepherd, which came from a rehoming centre, she wasn’t great with other dogs and could be “funny” with people. This is where I started my journey into training with my own dogs. Working for many years with a well respected ex police dog handler, who taught me a lot on all things GSD, using traditional training methods.

Since 2005 I’ve re-homed 8 adult GSDs from the age of 2 years upwards some with behavioural problems & some just looking for some home comforts. 2 GSD puppies & 1 Labrador.

Over these years each one has given me new challenges to work out and help “them be them” and I have undertaken lots of different training workshops, learning the new “modern” ways combined with undertaking courses to help me broaden my own experience and learn new training methods, combined with having been involved in training clubs & classes both as an owner/trainer & helping other owners through one to one sessions with all different breeds.
