Overview

Dogs aren’t just pets — they’re family. That bond we share with them is powerful, and my job is to help you make it even stronger. Through kind, force-free training, I’ll give you the tools to understand your dog, guide their behaviour, and enjoy life together.
At my 15-acre training facility, you’ll find open fields, water and jumps for gundog work, plus a fully enclosed manege and paddocks for puppies. I run small group classes and tailored 1:1 sessions. Everything I teach is reward-based, ethical and backed by science. No harsh methods, no quick fixes. Just clear, compassionate training that works.
I’ve trained with some of the best in the business, including a year-long mentorship with Steve Mann (IMDT founder) and Dave Brice (Head of Behaviour Studies), and I still keep my knowledge fresh through ongoing courses and seminars.
At the heart of everything is a simple philosophy:
✨ Kindness over correction
✨ Trust over threat
✨ Connection over coercion
My goal? A happy dog, a confident owner, and a partnership built to last.
