📌 Burbage, Leics Hey, I'm Shannon! 👋
I'm a professional dog trainer based in Burbage, Leicestershire, offering in-person and online training services to help dog owners build

better relationships with their dogs. As a proud owner of two Labradors and a passionate gundog trainer, I understand the unique needs of working breeds like Labradors, Spaniels, Vizslas etc. My training philosophy is grounded in kindness, positive reinforcement, and ethical practices—ensuring a safe, harm-free approach to every dog I work with. When you train with me, you enter a judgement-free zone. Regardless of your past experiences or challenges, I’m here to guide and support you with patience and understanding. I'm committed not only to helping my clients grow, but also to continuously expanding my own knowledge to offer the best possible guidance. If you're looking for compassionate, expert help with your dog, you've come to the right place!

🚨 EXCITING NEWS 🚨

I have officially got my own training field! 🤯

This is a game-changer — it means more classes, more flexibility, and no more needing to book secure fields, because I’ve got a space of my own!

I’ve been on the lookout for the right spot for a while, and an impromptu chat with Nilz really helped get the ball rolling — so grateful for the support 🙌🏼

If there’s a class or course you’d love to see, let me know — I’m all ears and now have the space to make it happen! 🐾

Let’s see your melting dogs pics! 🥵📸

I need to know mine aren’t the only ones turning into furry puddles this week!

We were up early this morning for a run around at The Oak Leaf Dog Park- Leicester before the sun properly came out to play and I haven’t heard a peep from the boys since!😅

I’d share a current pic but B is lying on my feet and I don’t share those kind of pics🦶😂

Can’t argue with Kate 🤷🏼‍♀️😂

Too hot for a proper walk but your dog still needs something to do? Here’s a super easy way to tire them out without leaving the house (or melting): set up a scavenger hunt!

All you need is a handful of the smelliest treats you can find and five minutes of your time.
Hide the treats around your house or garden in the nooks and crannies and just let your dog go.

It’s a brilliant way to get their nose working and their brain firing. Even the dogs with the best sniffers can take 20+ minutes to find them all if you hide them well.

Perfect for gundogs, adolescent dogs, or just anyone with a dog who’s climbing the walls when it’s too hot to do much else.

Let me know if you give it a go or if your dog would just stare at you like 👁️👄👁️

Rupert’s first gotcha day 😭

One whole year of the clumsiest, looniest, daftest pupper! Honestly, who’s idea was it to get a yellow one, eh?

Bellagio’s annoying little brother – body slammer, muzzle puncher, toy stealer, snuggly chaos gremlin👹

Can’t believe it’s been a year!🍾

Tried to get some nice photos at the field this morning, but he wasn’t having any of it – so we got some funny ones instead 😂

🔹Gundog Skills+ - Week Two🔹

I was absolutely blown away in today’s class!

We really amped up the difficulty and everyone did amazingly! We also introduced a sit to whistle and they all did so well that we even progressed to sitting while on the move.

So proud👏🏼

⭐️Gundog Skills - Week Two⭐️

I was so occupied today that I only took two pictures!
Today’s session was all about introducing the whistle for recall and placing the foundations for the pups’ sit/stays!

There was definitely something in the air (or the very long grass😅) today but both dogs did some good work👏🏼
