Qualifications

I am dedicated to continually enhancing my expertise in canine behavior and training.

My commitment is reflected in the numerous training courses, workshops, and seminars I've completed listed below. Currently pursuing my Dog Training and Behaviour Diploma with the esteemed International School for Canine Psychology and Behaviour (ISCP), I am passionate about staying at the forefront of industry knowledge.

To broaden my skills, I have undertaken comprehensive training with leading professionals. I participated in a shadow program with Linnea at Walk and Train Edinburgh, gaining valuable insights into diverse training approaches. Additionally, I completed a residential training diploma with the Canine Instructor Academy under the guidance of Robert Alleyne, focusing on practical dog training and behavior.

One of the highlights of my journey was the opportunity to shadow Jack Tutty in one-on-one training sessions, providing me with a unique and interesting perspective and enriching my understanding of canine behavior. I am committed to staying current with industry best practices and delivering exceptional care for your canine companions.
