A Little About Me
My journey as a dog trainer began seven years ago where I started working at a boarding kennel as a Kennel Hand. As I gained more experience I then moved on to rescue work and have worked at Battersea Dogs and Cats Home, Bath Cats and Dogs Home, Cheltenham Animal Shelter and Dogs Trust. Working in rescue for so long, I have become familiar with working with a variety of dogs with very different personalities and behaviour challenges.
I use positive reinforcement and train with treats, toys and gentle praise. I will always listen to the dog and am a strong believer at taking things at the dogs and handlers paces. Recently I have been diagnosed with ADHD and dyspraxia, having these conditions means I have to carefully adapt and choose my surroundings in order to succeed. I am unable to achieve in the usual way that most can and therefore I have to be creative. This has enabled me to become more empathetic to the individual and has allowed me to become more creative in helping the individual succeed. It is also important to me to keep up with new research in the dog training industry, so I attend behaviour conferences and have done a number of IMDT (Independent Modern Dog Trainer) courses to keep up-to-date with this.
I am very passionate about sharing information and learning from each other. So, in my spare time I have helped organise a dog behaviour conference called Dog Rescue Unites. I am also the Publications Co-Ordinator for INTORescue, which gives rescue workers a base to learn and also to get mental health support as well. As I love to learn so much, I am also studying part-time for a MRes in Anthrozoology (study of human-animal relationship) at Hartpury University.
