a professional

What do you love most about your job?

I love dogs and being able to help people create a stronger connection with their pet is my favourite part of the job. Puppy training can be particularly rewarding as well!

Do you offer any specialised forms of training?

I can offer everything from house training a puppy to teaching an adult how to complete an agility course in competition. I specialise in commands and being able to instruct owners on how to handle their pup, as well as teaching them how to better understand their dog. One of the more specialist aspects I train on is separation anxiety.

What variety of training options do you provide for clients?

I believe I offer a great range, including home visits, group sessions, and private one-to-one instructor classes. I’m also happy meeting in a suitable public place such as a dog park. Working with you and your dog, we’ll create a routine that works perfectly.

What qualifications have you achieved?

I have earned qualifications from: the Kennel Club Accredited Instructors, Level 3 CPD Accredited Dog Training, Diploma in Dog Training, and more. I’ve also attended dozens of seminars hosted by leading trainers/behaviourists. I’m a full member of the Guild of Dog Trainers and the Association of Pet Dog Trainers.

The service i received from Armand was above and beyond. Struggled with so many trainers ect. He sorted my very aggressive reactive dog very quickly. From me being terrified to taking my dog out, to now having beach days, long walks just the 2 of us and im finally happy to say my best friend is able to share beautiful moments in nature with me. Was not easy but i was shown every step of the way what to expect and how to deal with it. Forever greatful.

Daniel was AMAZING with our puppy - She has some bad separation anxiety and after only one session with Daniel we can already see so much improvement. Would definitely recommend

We had an awesome experience working with Natalie to get the basics down for our Cocker Spaniel, Hunter. Her approach was calm and knowledgeable and she guided us on what is normal and what realistic expectations would be in the training process. We saw massive progress in Hunter's training and obedience after just 2 sessions with Natalie (and lots of practice!). You could not go wrong or be in better hands!
