Sue's dog training

Sue's dog training I love helping people build great relationships with their dogs in a fun, positive and stress-free way. Do reach out to me. Which I really enjoy.

I'm a reward-based trainer offering groups classes, workshops, one-to-ones, and home visits across the Bromley and Orpington area. I went to St Nicholas Church of England School in Chislehurst and then Stratford House School in Bickley, Kent. My first job was at the Bank of England for 4 years and then Barclays de Zoete Webb for a couple of years. Then I decided to do a teaching degree at 21 years

of age at Brighton University. I taught at Wickham Common Primary School and Babington House. I did a Diplomia in Dyslexia and taught at a few schools including Leesons Primary School helping Dyslexic children. I decided to have a change and become a dog walker with my black Labrador called Jess and also a dog trainer. I have completed various online and in person courses:
Level 1 course on canine care and behaviour, Absolute Dogs: Pro Dog Trainer and Geek Course,
Holly Tett's online courses and conferences
Susan Garratt’s Handling 360 and Recallers
Animal Behaviour Level 3 - NIOQ training certificate
Nosework Instructor Part 1
Diploma in Canine Behavioural Training - 5 day residential course with Robert Alleyne - PRAMA Training. Tellington Touch 3 Day workshop
Advanced Higher Certificate in Canine Behaviour Practice and Aggression Studies. I am currently doing a Dog Breed Specific Behaviour: A Pschological Insight. In March 2025 I am doing Man Trailing Inspectors Course

I volunteer every week at Foal Farm Rescue Centre near Biggin Hill with the dog walking.

Billie from Diamond Dogz is running a Grooming and Handling Workshop on Saturday 15th November.

🐕 This workshop is really good for dogs that are not keen to go to groomers, so owners get tips to help them with this at home.

🐩 It’s also good for owners who want to learn more about how to groom their dog. As dogs need daily or weekly grooming. You will be given the correct equipment to take home and use with your dog.

Contact Billie or myself, details on the poster below.

Training your dog is a journey. There will be fun times and bad times. It is all about building a relationship with your dog and enjoying the journey. You don’t need to be hard on yourself if it doesn’t always go to plan. You don’t have to prove anything to anyone. The only person you answer to is yourself. It’s a good idea to keep a daily journal of your training/dog walks. See some ideas below. More ideas in ‘How to train your dog’ by Adam Spivey.

I met this lovely 1 1/2 year old Cockapoo this morning. He needed help with recall and lead walking. We practiced recall in the garden and then went to the field nearby where using Rupert loves play with the dogs and not listen to his mum. Today Rupert was listening to his mum and getting high value rewards for doing this. We practiced lead walking on the way back home. We will keep in touch via what app.
