My dog pulls so hard on the lead
I love helping with the ever so common problem of a dog dragging their person around on the end of the lead. It means sore hands, painful shoulders and, let’s admit it’s a little annoying and embarrassing.

I worry when my dog is off lead
Having a reliable off lead dog isn’t just about calling your dog back to you.
Its about BMF … being more fun, so he wants to be with you.
Build behaviours that means your dog wants to stay and play with you instead of walking on your own whilst your dog is off enjoying himself way away from you?
My excited dog bounces on people
Its great having a dog who LOVES people, but when that means your friends stop visiting your home because your dog jumps all over them then its a step too far in the excitement department.
I want to have more fun with my dog
Even if you have a generally well behaved dog, additional training helps your dog have a better life and it builds your relationship.
If you want to train just for fun then you found the right place. I love teaching scentwork and trick training.
My dog wants to say hi to ALL the dogs
Whilst we all want a happy dog with good social skills, we don’t want a social butterfly that pulls on lead to get to every dog you pass.
My dog is aggressive to dogs on lead
Does your dog bark, lunge or growl at other dogs making your walks a nightmare?
It’s frustrating, distressing, even embarrassing when your dog behaves like that every time they see a dog.
I see many, many dogs who aren’t comfortable around other dogs, they are often frightened and just want the dog to go away.
My dog is frightened of strangers
Does your dog snap, growl or lunge when people approach or try and stroke your dog and you feel like you are constantly apologising for his behaviour?
have you stopped inviting people to your home becasue of how your dog behaves around visitors? I can help.
My dog growls when I go near his stuff
Living with a Jekyll and Hyde dog is hard, a usually loving and wonderful family dog turns into an aggressive, fierce Tasmanian devil around whatever it is they feel the need to protect.
Dogs guard all kinds of things for all kinds of reasons. The most common are guarding food items or those precious prizes they have stolen.
About Me
Award winning behavioural specialist and puppy training expert
I am Passionate about helping people and their dogs suceed
I am based in Yeadon, between Leeds, Bradford and Harrogate, dogs are my life, my love and my passion. The field of dog training & behaviour has been my main focus for the last 22 years since I completed my very first Canine Behaviour course.
My Mission
I believe that aligning your needs with your dog’s needs is essential for a happy, stress-free life together.
When you book a session you get me, it’s all about you and your dog, no other staff, just me working directly with you.
My mission is to empower you, as a dog owner with the knowledge and skills necessary to help your dog be a joy to live with.
I want to create a training experience that strengthens your bond while ensuring lasting results.
My Vision
To help as many families as possible to enjoy dog ownership, to help people resolve problems and prevent dogs ending up in rescue.
All training is based on the importance of clear communication and understanding between you and your dog. You will learn how to communicate with your dog with clarity to help him understand you. I will also teach you to read your dog’s signals so you can respond in a way that builds a strong, positive relationship based on understanding.
Combining my extensive theoretical knowledge of dog behaviour with real hands-on skills, you’ll see improvements during our sessions while picking up the knowledge and skills to keep the momentum going at home. My job is to get you on the right road, with the right plan and give you the skills to keep practicing with your dog.
