Melanie has made it her mission to help strengthen the bond between humans and their dogs, to really make a difference in their world.  Her belief that dogs are sentient beings, drives her to increase the understanding of how dogs communicate with their humans.

That doesn’t mean that she is an advocate for just the dog.  Melanie’s people skills make her stand out from the crowd.  She understands that clients often seek help with their dog from professionals when they have exhausted all other options. This can mean that their dog is an emotive topic for them, and they are often at their wits end.   Melanie understands the importance of them feeling heard and understood in a non-judgemental way.  

Whilst Melanie offers both one to one work and a variety of classes for all ages, her real passion is dog to dog reactivity.  Having lived with a reactive dog, she understands the complex feelings that this entails, which is often exacerbated by societal judgement.
