About Me
The greatest gift is to connect with your dog and that can begin with puppy training, further training or an activity with your dog such as agility or pet gun dog training. We can help you find what motivates your dog and to partake in activities both you and your dog will enjoy. We all want the best for our animals and here we use a positive way of training so you and your dog are happy and comfortable so you are able to enjoy the sessions spent with Dogs Doing Better.​

I have had various dogs in my life from puppy training a guide dog, rehoming a family friend's Beagle, rescue dogs and gun dog trained Labradors. They have all had their challenges which has made me determined to learn from each of them and expand my knowledge of the canine mind. I wanted to study with an accredited organisation with high standards of welfare and found this with the Institute of Modern Dog Trainers (IMDT).

Alongside practical training I hold Level 3 Learning, Motivation & Reinforcement, Understanding and Working with Canine Behaviour. I am presently studying Level 4 Consultations and Functions of Behaviour. I am constantly striving to enhance my knowledge with continuous professional development studies.
