I would highly recommend. I have an 11 year old Labrador that was going through radiotherapy and had completely shut down. After having him since he was an 8 week old Puppy, for the first time ever, I didn't know what to do. Adrianne of Paw Management did a thorough assessment and literally within minutes, he was up and interacting with her.She gave us thorough guidance in what to do and follow ups.Her advice on nutrition, canine psychology, and different types of mental stimulation we could use was invaluable. A REAL dog trainer shouldn't just know how to train sit, stay and all that, but to know deeper aspects of nutrition, how the systems of the body work and interact, and have a working knowledge from ACTUAL experience.Paw Management is the only logical option for me!

Our 8-month-old GSD was pulling me off my feet everytime I tried to walk him, even my big burly husband struggled at times. She would go berserk every time she saw the leash and practically dragged me out the door. She also barked like a mad thing every time someone came to the door.
Lesley came to our house and after learning more about our girl and her routine she spent some time playing with her and getting to know her. By the end of our first session she had her sitting (something she would never really do when we asked her to)
Within a couple of weeks, Kizi was no longer taking me for a walk I was taking her and the postman doesn't need to think twice about coming to the door. There is still work to be done but Lesley is patient and friendly and explains every step of the process in an idiot-proof way. We are hoping to start taking Kizi to some of the group classes run by Lesley in the new year so that she can socialise more with other dogs.
Highly recommended trainer with the patience of a saint.

We were having problems with our beloved ageing greyhound who was struggling with the external stairs to our flat. We contacted Claire on a Saturday night and she re arranged other plans to be out to us at 8 am on the Sunday morning.
Poor Rocky has some physical problems such as arthritis and failing eyesight which need medical help but Claire was able to advise us on some tips to encourage him to try the stairs once the vet had helped us in other ways.
Rocky is now coping so much better which is a huge relief to us all.

We have a rescue westie who is experiencing problems with anxiety around people, other dogs etc. We're currently working with Jim and we're starting to notice a difference in Brodie's behaviour on his walks, people coming to the house etc. Jim is a very calming influence, has patience and knowledge in abundance. We'd highly recommend CBT Dog Training.

I contacted Jim a few weeks ago regarding our border collie Alfie who is 20 months old. We had a few minor problems with Alfie regarding pulling on the lead, barking at various noises in the house, being scared of people coming to the house and being scared of the hoover.
We have had 3 sessions with Jim and the difference in Alfie is amazing. The pulling on the lead is almost gone ( only when he gets really excited ) he is no longer scared of people coming to the house or the hoover. His barking at various noises in the house i.e the door bell has reduced considerably.
Jim is a great guy and was great with Alfie and also our older dog Dana.
Thanks Jim

First meeting for Fletcher and Michael today. Our issue was taking him out for a walk and him constantly pulling on the lead. Our only bit of control was to use a halti, which he hated. After 20 minutes work with Michael, our dog was responsive and could be walked on a slack lead with little pulling and no need for the halti. This is a working progress but Michael has given us the tools we need and the confidence that Fletcher can be walked without a halti. Highly recommend!

About Kerry – Kerry’s K9 Connections Welcome to Kerry’s K9 Connections, providing modern, ethical dog training across Central Scotland. I am an accredited trainer with PACT (Professional Association of Canine Trainers) and registered with the ABTC (Animal Behaviour & Training Council). With over 14 years of experience, my background spans both pet dog training and specialist assistance‑dog work. For more than eight years, I have worked as the Lead Dog Trainer for a charity, training Assistance dogs to support individuals with a wide range of physical, emotional, and developmental needs. This role has shaped my understanding of behaviour, communication, and the importance of building strong, trusting partnerships between dogs and their handlers. I am a graduate of the Academy of Dog Training and Behaviour and hold a Diploma in Dog Psychology and Behaviour through the International School of Canine Psychology PACT Dog trainer. My Training Approach At Kerry’s K9 Connections, I use choice‑based, science‑backed, reward‑focused training. My aim is to work with both ends of the lead — helping dogs learn through positive experiences while supporting owners to understand how their dog thinks, feels, and communicates. Training is never one‑size‑fits‑all. Every dog and owner is a unique partnership, so each programme is tailored to suit your dog’s needs, your lifestyle, and your goals. I guide you step‑by‑step, giving you clear, practical tools that build confidence, strengthen your bond, and create lasting results. What I Offer • Consultation and assessment • Tailored training programmes with structured step‑by‑step guidance • Private 1‑to‑1 sessions where I travel to you • Clear written plans after each session • Support that focuses on real‑life skills and long‑term success Whether you’re welcoming a new puppy, navigating behaviour challenges, or simply wanting to build a stronger connection with your dog, I’m here to support you every step of the way.
Working with dogs and their owners is more than a career for me — it’s something I genuinely love. After more than 14 years in the industry, including eight years as the Lead Dog Trainer for a charity training assistance dogs, I’ve seen firsthand how powerful the bond between a dog and their person can be. Helping people strengthen that bond is the best part of what I do.
I love watching dogs grow in confidence, learn to make good choices, and begin to understand the world around them. I love seeing owners realise that training isn’t about control — it’s about communication, trust, and teamwork. My approach is choice‑based, science‑backed, and reward‑focused, and nothing makes me happier than seeing both ends of the lead working together and enjoying the process.
Every dog is different. Every owner is different. And that’s what makes this job so special. No two days are the same, and every session gives me the chance to support a new partnership, solve a new puzzle, and celebrate new progress.
Being able to guide people, empower them with knowledge, and help their dogs thrive is something I never take for granted. It’s a privilege — and it’s why I love what I do.
What Inspired Me to Become a Dog Trainer
My journey into dog training began back in 2014, after watching a TV programme about a dog rescue centre. One particular dog stood out — he was labelled aggressive, misunderstood, and difficult to place. But through patient rehabilitation, choice‑based training, and the right support, he transformed. Not only did he overcome his challenges, he went on to become an assistance dog, changing someone’s life forever.
Seeing that transformation lit a spark in me. It showed me what dogs are capable of when we listen to them, understand them, and give them the chance to succeed. That moment inspired me to retrain as a dog trainer, and I’ve never looked back.
Since then, I’ve achieved my goal of becoming an Assistance Dog trainer i am now the Lead Dog Trainer for a charity for over eight years. I now run my own business — Kerry’s K9 Connections — offering 1‑to‑1 dog training and dog walking, especially for dogs who are nervous, overwhelmed, or unable to cope in busy class environments.
My passion has always been helping dogs who need a gentler, more personalised approach. The dogs who struggle. The dogs who worry. The dogs who need someone to meet them where they are. And the owners who want to understand them better.
That TV programme didn’t just inspire me — it shaped the trainer I am today.
Choosing the right trainer matters — especially if your dog is nervous, overwhelmed, or needs a more personalised approach. What sets me apart is how deeply I care about getting the training right for both the dog and the owner.
I use choice‑based, science‑backed, reward‑focused training, adapting techniques to suit each individual dog and their unique needs. No dog is the same, so no training plan should be either. I take everything at your dog’s pace, ensuring they feel safe, supported, and able to learn without pressure.
I work with both ends of the lead, helping owners understand how their dog thinks, feels, and communicates. My goal is to empower you with clear guidance, practical tools, and confidence — so you and your dog can thrive together.
To make training as accessible and stress‑free as possible, I offer online services for owners who prefer remote support or cannot attend in person. This allows you to learn at home, revisit guidance, and receive structured help wherever you are.
For in‑person training, I provide 1‑to‑1 sessions where I travel to you, offering convenience and a calm environment for dogs who struggle in busy class settings. You also receive continued support between sessions, so you’re never left on your own — whether you need reassurance, advice, or help troubleshooting something new.
With me, you’re not just getting a trainer — you’re getting someone who listens, understands, and genuinely cares about helping your dog succeed.
Yes my 1-2–1 6 week foundation course can be carried out online which has proven very sucessful with new puppy owners as the dogs are more focused learning in their own enviorment giving the skills to progress outside.
