Proud to be a member of Pet Professional Network and stand strongly with their ethics as they align with ours.

We have worked hard to build up DogWuf, and will always continue to study and learn so that we can offer the best support to you and your dogs.

‘TOGETHER WE ARE STRONGER’

When you hire a dog trainer it is MUCH more than an hour of their time...

This is so they can give you and your dog the very best ongoing support, with effective long term results.

So please take a moment to consider the following if you are looking to hire a professional.

And always do check their experience, their accreditations/courses they've completed and their testimonials. Please ensure that the training they do puts the needs of the dog first, with no harsh or outdated methods.

Here at PPN we are committed to supporting kind and ethical pet professionals, offering a range of CPD to ensure ongoing learning and support.

This helps not only improve the industry and business standards but also offer a safe place for pet professionals to connect and support each other.

Hey 👋🏽 It’s been a while 🤭

Things have been changing behind the scenes, and we’re almost ready to start sharing again!

As you know, I’ve been super busy with PAWS Therapy and Assistance Dogs as a mentor, and I’m loving every second of it.

Now that things have settled into a calmer routine, I’ll be opening up a few slots for new clients. Hopefully, there’ll be something that suits you.

I’m almost finished with our new website, so I’ll give you a shout when it goes live, you’ll be able to book online 🥰 How exciting! 🥰

Whether you’re looking for general training or behaviour support, scentwork or gundog training, help with children around dogs (or vice versa), or if you know someone who has a fear of dogs, child or adult, we’re here for you!

Watch this space!!

🐾 Exciting news for everyone passionate about dogs and their wellbeing!

The Canine Wellness Conference is happening in North Devon in 2026. A weekend full of interactive talks, practical learning, and genuine connection, all centred around our dogs and their overall wellbeing.

Organised by Rebecca Hanlon (AKA The Dog Witch: Whole Health for Healthy Behaviour) and Dan from West Country Pets (the wonderful heart-led pet shops in Bude and Holsworthy), this event is built on kindness, education, and accessibility. They’re keeping ticket prices low because they believe knowledge should be available to everyone. For us, our communities, and the dogs we love.

We’re proud to be promoting this event because it aligns perfectly with everything we stand for at BeKind Rescue, compassion, education, community, and always doing what’s best for the dogs. 💛

If you care about canine welfare, connection, and kindness, grab your ticket or help spread the word. Let’s make this something truly special!

✨ A new month brings exciting news! ✨

Over the past few months I have been involved with PAWS as a mentor. I’m thrilled to share that I’ve now been invited to join them as a core mentor, an opportunity I’m incredibly excited about! 😄

What does this mean for DogWuf?

I’ll still be running a limited number of sessions with DogWuf for our regular clients. Nigel will still be providing 1-1 gundog training.

The rest of my week will now be dedicated to working with our Therapy & Assistance Dog teams at PAWS:

🐾 Welcoming new PAWS clients
🐾 Visiting school dogs & their handlers
🐾 Leading group mentoring sessions
🐾 Providing 1:1 support to clients

This is an amazing chance for me to collaborate with some amazing and inspirational humans, and I can’t wait to get started!

May is Mental Health Awareness Month ❤️

Let’s talk about something that matters, to you and your dog.

Mental health isn’t just a human thing. Our dog’s feel stress, anxiety, and loneliness too. Whether it’s a tough day, a big life change, or just the everyday hustle, you’re not alone, and neither is your pup.

Reaching out, for yourself, your friends, and yes, even your dog can make all the difference. A walk, a cuddle, a check-in,… they all count. 🤗❤️

So this month, and every month going forward, let’s be kind, be present, and stay connected.

Your mental health matters and your dog’s does too. If you’re struggling with training or behaviour why not drop us a message, we would love to help 🥰

Let Them Sort It Out…? Let’s Not.

We often hear, ‘Just let the dogs sort it out’ or ‘Let that dog put them in their place’. But here’s the truth:

Dogs aren’t responsible for policing each other’s behavior, that’s our job as their guardians.

Allowing dogs to ‘sort it out’ can lead to stress, fear, and even aggression. It risks both dogs learning the wrong lessons: one may become anxious or fearful, the other may feel pressure to be the ‘enforcer’.

So what do we do instead?
• We supervise interactions with intention.
• We advocate for every dog’s comfort and consent.
• We interrupt when play gets too rough or one dog looks uncomfortable.
• We teach through positive reinforcement and never punishment or conflict.

A safe, respectful space builds confident dogs.

Let’s support our dogs the way they support us, kindly, clearly, and consistently.

I’m proud to share that I have renewed my membership as an Approved Professional with KAD Kids Around Dogs

Being part of KAD means more than just having a title or ticking boxes. It represents my commitment to creating safe, supportive, and positive experiences for children and dogs together.

At the heart of my work is a deep belief in the power of connection: between kids and their dogs, and between children and their own growing confidence. Through gentle, evidence-based techniques, I help children build trust, overcome fears, develop empathy, and learn valuable life skills, all with the support of our wonderful dogs.

Whether it’s helping a nervous child feel brave around dogs, guiding neurodiverse children in their unique journeys, or supporting families in creating safe, joyful dog interactions at home, I tailor every session to the individual needs of the child. Play, patience, and kindness are key elements in everything we do.

Being part of the KAD network means I have the training, resources, and shared values to ensure that every interaction is safe, respectful, and meaningful, both for the children and for the dogs. I’m honored to work alongside a community that prioritises children’s emotional well-being and dog welfare equally.

Every child’s success story, every moment of growth and laughter, reminds me why I do this work, and why I’m proud to do it as part of Kids Around Dogs.

Welcome to DogWuf - Walk & Sit

Dog walking service with a difference - offering individual 1-2-1 walks by an accredited trainer. Do you have a reactive dog that struggles with traditional group walks or day care? Or do you have a dog that could do with a refresher on their recall or walking on a lead? Get in touch to discuss how I can help you!

I also offer in home pet sitting. I can stick to your routine. This is suitable for any animal, however if you have a dog or dogs which aren’t suited to kennels or home boarding then this is ideal and less stress for them. If your cat or cats aren’t suited to kennels and you would prefer to have them at home this is also ideal. Get in touch to discuss how I can help you!

I share my home with 5 dogs, and a Cat called Lily. 2 of my dogs are rescues from Spain, each with their own challenges, so whatever issue you may be having with your dog - I have probably been there and can support you on your journey.

My love of animals does not stop there. I run a very successful foster based rescue called BeKind Rescue which now has a Charity Status. We continue to grow and help animals from all over the EU as well as the UK. The importance of rehoming and getting the right homes for our dogs and cats to ensure they live a happy and long lives is something I am really passionate about.
