Our Story
I have owned dogs all my life and then Bert and Ernie came into my life, and I became interested in training them, I remember reading a book (which I now know contained some old punishment methods) which caused my dog to not want to come back to me (temporarily, thankfully!) so I looked into it further......... (and a lot of time, effort and money spent)
I am fully qualified in both foundation training and advanced dog training with the association of pet dog trainers I hold a level 4 diploma with the British college of canine studies in dog behaviour and currently volunteer with the dogs trust dog training school. I am also in the early stages of a level 5 advance diploma in dog behaviour. I also hold a level 3 diploma in health and nutrition.
It is important to me that dogs do not suffer at the hands of methods that are aversive and cause pain and fear to dogs. The methods that I use are based upon positive reinforcement, allowing the dog to choose to perform the desired behaviour and are highly rewarded for their efforts. Dogs learn much quicker and retain what they have learnt using reinforcement. We offer 1-2-1 puppy and adult dog training and behaviour modifications.
We are fully insured with pet business insurance for dog training, walking and home visits.
Dog walks are also available between 10.30-2.30.
All dogs are assessed for suitability prior to walks.
We also offer home visits to feed pets (not just dogs) whilst you are at work or away. All types of animals will be considered!
