About Me/ Company

Dogs are my passion, I couldn't imagine my life without them.

I am currently studying a Level 4 Advanced Diploma in Canine Behaviour & Level 1 Certificate in Dog Law through the British College of Canine Studies to gain the skills and knowledge to graduate as a Canine Behaviour Practitioner. The British College of Canine Studies is run by working Canine professionals who believe in Positive Reinforcement training.

I have also studied a Level 3 Diploma in Dog Care, Behaviour and Welfare through Animal Jobs Direct LTD, a Level 2 BTEC First Diploma in Animal Care and a NVQ1 in Animal Care through Bicton College.

Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and my passion started at an early age spending a lot of my time with our family pooch Kirsty - a Red Setter x Collie for most of my childhood and teen years.

In 2014 I joined Hearing Dogs for Deaf People, taking in an assistant Puppy for 12-16 months. Following the guidelines of Hearing Dogs I trained her to a great standard reaching the 1 & 2 star achievement criteria. This was the best 15 months for me, enjoying every second.
I am now helping Hearing Dogs for Deaf people Fundraise and spread the word. I am also undergoing training to become a Speaker/Regional Ambassador for the Charity.

Overall my canine experience is varied from basic Veterinary skills to Behaviour & Training. I am qualified on Canine first aid, husbandry and Welfare, and have used these skills both academically and practically, assisting as a Volunteer for charities.
