QUALIFICATIONS AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

As a committed dog training professional, I hold several recognised qualifications to provide the highest standard of care and expertise to my clients. My learning journey is ongoing, ensuring I stay up-to-date with the latest research and techniques in dog training and behaviour.

I am proud to have achieved an OFQUAL Level 3 qualification in Canine Care, Behaviour, and Welfare, with The DoGenus Institute, demonstrating my in-depth understanding of dog behaviour and well-being.

Currently, I am expanding my knowledge through studies with The Dog Trainer School and The School of Canine Science. I am also a proud member of the Dog Trainer School, where I am currently undertaking their Reactivity Course, further enhancing my skills in working with dogs who struggle with fear, anxiety, or challenging behaviours. When I’m not teaching or running classes, you’ll often find me immersed in a dog training book or writing essays on canine behaviour and welfare—because every little bit of knowledge helps me deliver better results for you and your dog.

I am also a Professional Gold Member of the Pet Professional Network (PPN), an internationally renowned organisation that supports ethical, kind, and trusted pet professionals. PPN collaborates with world-class training and behavioural institutes to raise animal welfare standards, while also offering members valuable business and mindset coaching.

As a PPN member, I’ve undergone a thorough personal assessment to ensure I align with their force-free and fear-free philosophy. Through this supportive network, I benefit from ongoing coaching and mentorship, allowing me to deliver long-term, effective support to my clients.

Joining PPN isn’t just about improving my own practice—it’s about building a community of like-minded professionals who share a commitment to animal welfare. By being part of this group, I can better serve my clients while encouraging collaboration and growth among ethical trainers across the industry.

I am dedicated to bringing the very best to dog owners in Crawley, Horley and the surrounding West Sussex area. Whether you’re looking for puppy training, fun activities like Canine Hoopers, or general dog training, you can trust that my qualifications and continuous professional development are focused on improving the bond between you and your dog.
