Using only ethical and effective methods to help you and your dog enjoy life together!
All training and support offered uses only scientifically backed knowledge combined with experience to ensure that training is a positive experience for everyone. Learning is most successful when it is FUN and should be enjoyable for both human and dog.
So, whether you’re struggling with your dog’s behaviour, or just want to get things right with your puppy or dog, I’m here to help you.
Let me help you with…
Puppy Training & Preventing Problems
For puppies under 6 months of age to learn the essential skills that make puppies fun to live with.
Dogs in Adolescence or With Bad Manners
For dogs over 6 months or dogs that have forgotten their manners and have become difficult to live with.
Problem Behaviours With Other Dogs
For dogs that are reactive to other dogs, worried by unfamiliar dogs or get over-excited when meeting other dogs.
Separation Behaviours When Left Alone
Suitable for dogs who show real fear or anxiety at being left alone; destroying the house, toileting, whining, etc.
Other Problem Behaviours
Your dog may be having behavioural issues that don’t fit into a ‘box’ but don’t worry.
My flexible packages can also be personalised to tackle resource guarding, destruction around the home, car travel, fear of noises and many other issues.
The fact is, some situations can be very stressful. To resolve things, it is best to work with someone who takes an educated and empathetic approach and can identify what’s going on, rather than relying on ‘quick-fixes’ or ‘sticking plaster’ tactics… and certainly without resorting to anything unpleasant for your dog!
CLIENT FEEDBACK
“She’s like a different dog since our sessions together.”
Thank you so much Lucy, I was seriously impressed with how you explained about how Poppy was probably experiencing stress and anxiety. Taking things back to basics allowed us to bond properly and for us both to grow in confidence.

I’ll be a good match for you if…
- You’d like help choosing the right breed for your lifestyle, preparing for your puppy’s arrival, and to set them (and you) up for success to fit comfortably into your life.
- You love your dog and want to have a great relationship with them, instead of feeling frustrated or worried by their behaviour (or just telling them off all the time!).
