I offer dog walking, dog boarding and training services. I aim to offer an enriching experience for the dogs when walking or boarding. For training I use science based knowledge and training to help owners understand how their dogs feel in a person's world and how their person can help them to feel more confident and happy dogs.

Highly recommend April for dog training and cannot thank her enough for all her help with Tess!
When Tess started her training she was extremely reactive to other dogs out on walks.
With help from April on behavioural traits about the breed and how to manage these, along with improved lead control, Tess has improved massively and rarely reacts now when other dogs pass.
Her confidence and training has came on massively over the last couple of months and we couldn't have achieved this without the help and support from April.
Thank you again 🐾❤️

April was great, a lot of the training we have to put into place is waiting and she was so patient with our pup and an absolute delight to work with.

Thankyou for your review. It was a pleasure working with you and your handsome dog 🐕🦺

All I need to say is that my Harvey loves going here, he cries when we drive into April's Street, bounds out the car and doesn't even give me a backward glance as he runs in. But above that, April has been so accommodating with us, taking Harvey around both mine and my husbands shifts and taking Harvey last minute if required. I can't recommend highly enough 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 More...
