🐕As we say goodbye to 2024, I want to say a heartfelt thank you to every single client who has trusted Companion Coach with their dog this year

We have met such amazing dogs and their humans and we have loved every minute of it 😁

We had such a successful year of clients returning for several workshops and courses that we were able to host our very first Companion Coach client Christmas lunch! 🎄

We invited our most dedicated clients to join us for a wonderful meal at Sarsen Stones to celebrate all our dog training achievements of 2024. These clients have been with me the whole year and supported the business in its biggest year of growth to date. I can not thank them enough for their dedication to my business and their dogs wellbeing. We had a lovely time competing in a dog trivia quiz, exchanging gifts and sharing wonderful stories about our dogs. I hope we can make this a yearly tradition for now on.

I can not wait to celebrate the start of 2025 with the dream of seeing all the familiar faces of my dedicated team of dog owners and hopefully continuing to add more like-minded people to our growing, friendly and fur loving community.

Happy New Year to all 🎆🥳

🤓Every day is an opportunity for learning...

I attended the fantastic 'Dog X' conference over the weekend and as always it was insightful, inspirational and fun!

We heard from some incredible professionals in our field and had the opportunity to watch some heroic dogs perform life-changing tasks for their physically impaired pet parents.

My two biggest take aways from the conference (two of many) would be...
1. The welfare of our dogs should come before training, obedience and compliance
2. If you could ask the last dog you worked with what you did for them, what would they say?
