How I Work
Quite simply, I only use force-free, positive, reward-based dog training methods which are scientifically proven to give more effective, long-lasting results than punitive, forceful or intimidating methods of training.
The terms ‘top dog’, ‘pack leader’ and ‘alpha’ no longer have a place in modern dog training; instead, we need to teach and guide our dogs to display behaviours we want from them through positive reward and motivation.
Humans often forget dogs don’t come with the English language installed; it’s up to us to teach them in a kind and compassionate way what we expect from them.

Positive Training
Positive training builds a bond and a mutual trust between you and your pet which will last a lifetime (I say pet because it doesn’t just work on dogs … chicken or rat training anyone?!).
As a positive dog trainer, I can also help you understand how your dog is communicating with you through its body language and behaviour, which will lead to successful and stress-free results at both ends of the lead.
These two articles give more detail into the theory behind positive dog training:
