What is your availability?

That completely changes depending on my lifestyle. The best thing you can do is touch base with me for availability.

What is my training style?

Navigating dog training styles is up there with bringing up religion, politics and sexuality at a Christmas dinner. Which is why I do not and will not subscribe to one particular ideology at the detriment of a dog. The way I work is to motivate the dog and reinforce desired behaviours. I want the dog to WANT to do the work. Nothing is more ‘icky’ in my eyes, than seeing a dog unmotivated and lacking enthusiasm in their training.

My training style is always developing as I learn more and my approach will vary depending on the dog, you as the owner and what is realistic and achievable. I draw on techniques and training concepts from multiple places, professionals and ideas; some of the training I do isn’t even specific to animals! At the end of the day, a dog’s welfare, happiness and relationship with you is the most important thing to me.

In short: A motivating model…

Are multiple dogs able to be seen in one session?

Yes. You are hiring me per time slot which means I can see multiple dogs in one session. When working on behaviour modification, I will typically allocate portions of the session to specific dogs.

Are you certified?

On top of this I ensure my training is keep up to date by attending various education and training workshops and seminars around the world.

Are you insured?
