Barking dogs and neighbour disputes.

I was recently asked to write a piece for the Daily Mail Online

Lots of my neighbours have told me the dog bothers them, but said they didn't want to cause a fuss. What can I do to make it stop?

A useful reminder for all areas of life including the use of reinforcement-based dog training methods as opposed to paversive training methods.

Great day at Claremont Park Gardens. Lots of questions fielded.

Trust an 11 yr old to ask me how many dogs in the world and how many live with people!! Fortunately, the answer came to me. Circa 1 billion in the world and around 30% with us. Phew!

Helping you, help your dog.

Do you need help with a dog behaviour problem? Thinking of buying a puppy? Just bought a puppy? Just taken on a rescue dog?

I am an accredited dog behaviourist and have bases in London, Reading, Oxford, Manchester, Frankfurt, Kassel, Bilbao, Madrid, Chamonix and Southern France (Olonzac). If you live within commuting distance of these bases, I can help with any dog behaviour with which you need help.

Originally trained at the Cambridge Institute of Dog Behaviour and Training, I have been modifying troublesome dog behaviours for over 20 years. As a member of the International School for Canine Psychology & Behaviour, the International Companion Animal Network and the Guild of Dog Trainers, I believe in treating all clients and their dogs with respect, compassion and understanding.
