Am I the right trainer for you?

My values:

I have three core values:

1. I train with compassion and kindness using force-free positive reinforcement.

2. I want training to be fun for you and your dog.

3. I want you to understand the "why" behind positive reinforcement, creating a deeper bond and an enhanced life with your best friend.

My methods:

Positive reinforcement

Would I run a marathon for a bar of chocolate? "Not a chance", would I do it for a life time supply of dry rose blush? "I am already running".

Positive reinforcement uses methods such as high value treats, toys, praise, games and scent work so that your dog is motivated to repeat the activity and it becomes a joyful journey for you both.

Understanding the ""WHY" behind your dogs behaviour

I don't just launch into training, we consider many things such as:

Is your dog in pain and in need of a vet check? Is your dog getting enough breed specific outlets? Are any environmental factors contributing to your dog's behaviour?

We are a match if you:

1. Embrace positive methods

I only train a dog with kindness. I do not judge for previous training methods used, so long as you are committed to learning the right way. Punishment based training might seem like a "quick fix" for a certain behaviour, but it simply causes a lot more unrelated behaviours to develop and will damage the bond with your dog. Training with kindness is scientifically proven to be the most effective way to train a dog out of any undesirable behaviours and to teach desirable behaviours. There is no place for punishment based training.

2. Are ready to commit to the process of putting in consistent effort between sessions to help your dog thrive

3. See training as an investment - you are ready to invest in high quality, professional service because you understand that your dogs happiness and your relationship with your dog is worth it
