The K9 Personal Trainer (2025)

Specialising in Pet Dog Owner’s with Disabilities and Training Walks, with a sprinkle of Spanielism ✨

Free Guide for 'Accessible Dog Guardians Strategies'
Here - https://subscribepage.io/dCah44 Having worked with dogs for 9 years now in my own business and alongside Beastly Thoughts Professional Dog Services. I have come across a need for owners with disabilities, chronic illness and injury to be

able to access dog training tailored to their needs as well as their dogs. Let me help you, and guide you and your dog to a better more in harmony relationship.

The weekend just gone I helped out my mentor, Karen Boyce of Beastly Thoughts Professional Dog Services, with running a stand at Oswestry Show. It's a country show for families to enjoy and the local farming community to show off what they've been doing. Also lots of little lovely stalls full of amazing homemade crafts.

ANYWAY, this is the 10th year I've helped, it was Clem's 3rd year helping and she enjoyed herself, she likes chatting to children and loves the older ladies, and sharing food with the other instructors, she says thank you Chrissy for the cheesy chips.

In the 10 years I've been helping I always connect with someone who has had similar experiences as me when it comes to living with a chronic illness, and this year I actually remembered to take business cards so we could stay connected! I also had the Chronic with a Canine Circle to help us connect this year.

I just want to be able to show disabled and chronically ill pet guardians that it's not a solo journey, there are plenty of us doing it. We're just usually too tired to talk about it.

Luckily you don't have to chase me around at a country show for a business card to get entry into the Circle, you can join below.

The Circle is still a little seedling at the moment, but I'm trying to nurture it, can you help? Even if the circle isn't helpful for you, it may be helpful for someone close to you. 🌱

Is it just me… or does the dog world sometimes feel like it wasn’t built for people like us? Those of us living with faulty batteries 🪫 have to organise our whole lives around what are bodies are doing that day…

I created The Chronic with a Canine Circle because I couldn’t find a single training space that understood what it’s like to live with chronic illness and still want a calm, happy relationship with your dog.

No walk-shaming. No guilt. No “just be consistent!” advice when your energy lasts 4 minutes.

Just people who get it. People who celebrate beetle steps, connection, and showing up however you can that day.

🛋️ If you’ve ever trained from the sofa, you belong here.

Psst, I've got a little community opening 🌱

If you're disabled or chronically ill and sharing your life with a dog - this space was made for you. Not to be coached. Not to be fixed. Just to belong. 💙

It's quiet. It's cosy. It’s full of gentle prompts, reflections, and connection. (It's not woo woo, I promise, I'm still probably going to swear a lot in there 🤣)

No pressure. Just space to breathe, be seen, and chat with others who get it.

I was mid progression in building this for a big launch with Pepper, but since she passed away, I slumped. I lost my way a bit. But I want people to have the knowledge that she gave to me, being a dog trainer who lives with multiple illnesses and fights fatigue every day.

I’ve been a bit absent, if you didn’t see my posts earlier last week, you may have wondered where I went to.

Unfortunately, last week Michael and I had to say see you in a bit to Pepper.

A week before she’d somehow ingested cannabis, for a dog that brought us everything she found (yes everything!) it’s very strange.

Due to Pepper’s damaged pancreas, from a dog attack years before where her rib cage was broken and she ended up with adrenal gland fatigue and blunt force trauma induced pancreatitis, her body could not fight the effects of the THC.

Our vets really tried their best and were hopeful she’d make a full recovery after a few days of her not being right, then she started having seizures and we rushed her to out of hours. Her body was giving up on her, her mind was not. She recognised Mike and I to the end despite the fact she struggled to keep her head up and couldn’t move from mid spine down.

We asked her if she’d like to sleep, it was the only time her heart rate steadied and she rested into me and Mike. We feel like it was almost like she needed to be given permission, we’d be sad, we’d miss her but we didn’t want her to be in pain.

She went peacefully, surrounded by love, she truly was and will always be loved.

She inspired me, she pushed me, she was my mirror that reflected back what I needed to do in life. Whether I wanted to know or not, she was no BS 🤣

She gave me a 9 year long crash course in connecting with dogs, living life with illness to the full and helping other dog guardians.

Her stories will go on to teach, her knowledge won’t be wasted.

Come find me at the rainbows end when I get there Pep 🌈 I want to see those ears flapping ❤️
