About Us!
Head Instructor
Thank you for taking the time to find out more about me. My names Amy, I have been working with animals for over 15years, in animal rescues, veterinary surgery's and dog training. I am a positive, force free trainer that aims to make you and your dog a team and get the most out of each others company. I know every dog is different, and I’ll work with you to help you give your dog the specific training they need. Whether you’re thinking about getting a puppy, have adopted a new dog, already own a dog that needs to learn new tricks, or you just want to have more fun with them, I am here to help.
I own 3 dogs, one of which has epilepsy which has caused him to be fear reactive, I have spent a lot of time, researching and training in different sports and activities in order to give him a good quality of life despite his struggles and I love sharing these activities with other reactive dog owners.
I have an Advanced dog training qualification with the APDT and a Bsc degree in Animal Behaviour.
I am also a member of the APDT, a registered trainer with the ABTC, an accredited Canine Hoopers Instructor with both Canine Hoopers UK (Advanced Level) and Canine Hoopers World, a qualified trick training instructor with Do More With Your Dog, a qualified Scentwork instructor with UK Sniffer dogs and a qualified instructor with Mantrailing UK.
​
I want learning to be fun for everyone and to help create happy, confident dogs.
Assistant Instructor
Hi my names Eloni and I am training to be an instructor with the Canine Collective UK. My gorgeous Mali x Lurcher Willow, who is pictured here with me, has had her struggles along the way with being anxious. Learning to overcome this using positive and force free methods is what inspired me to become a dog trainer. In the last 1.5 years of my studies I have gained my Puppy specialist and Reactivity specialist awards with the Dog Training College and I am currently working towards my Canine Rally Instructor Qualification as well as gaining membership to the Association of Pet Dog Trainers. You will often find me assisting with puppy and adolescent classes or taking part in Mantrailing with Willow.
