Over the past eighteen years, I have been to thousands of dogs and hundreds of different houses. I have met so many wonderful people, people who love their dogs and want to do the best for them.

More recently I have included online consultations. They have proved so successful that with all my in-person visits I start off with an online session.

My love of dogs started many years ago with a Rottweiler called Merlin and Magic, a German Shepherd. Back then it was all about harsh dog training and ‘correcting’ the dog in order to force it to ‘obey’. Commands were sergeant major-style orders.

How different things are today. With all my subsequent learning and experience, I have proved beyond any possible doubt that kind, positive, and force-free methods not only work best, but they ensure we feel comfortable in our relationship with our dog. 

I am down to two dogs now. I can’t imagine a life without dogs.
