With a firm belief that agility should be fun for both dog and handler, Dave uses only very positive methods to train every level from puppies and beginners to national and international competitors. Focusing on consistency as the key training element, he has created his own handling system. Dave understands that every dog/handler team is different in personality, style and ability. Therefore to g

et the best out of everyone, he adapts the application of his system and his teaching methods accordingly. Time and again he helps to produce phenomenal canine athletes and amazing partnerships. With a firm belief in modern training methods, Dave uses both operant and classical conditioning and mainly positive reinforcement. He has no faith in the ‘pack’ theories and never uses positive punishment. Key Achievements:

What’s your favourite thing to teach?

I love teaching weaves the most. I made some tweaks to my method when I taught 40, where I broke down entries and exits much more and I’m very happy with the result. Being able to give high reward over small behaviours is very rewarding to me too!

What do you do for work?

It’s always interesting hearing people’s different careers and how they balance work and agility. Although I teach agility, people will also know I’m a qualified Osteopath.

After graduating from University and getting my degree in Human osteopathy, I briefly worked at a couple of clinics treating humans as my day job whilst working towards a qualification allowing me to treat horses and dogs as well. I don’t treat humans or horses anymore but I still treat our dogs and my friends dogs. Teaching has always been my passion so I fell into agility training as my full time profession but having the Osteo background has helped me so much through my teaching and competing career.

Boss 💚💚💚 overseeing our delivery of the brand new Better Everday.

All of my dogs will benefit from these natural herbs but as an oldie it’s great for him too. It’s in powder form too for any dogs suspicious of greens!

Thank you Better Dog 🖤 AD
