Having been out of the dog training environment for a few years after prioritising my education and beginning my career in Business and Operations with the University of Cambridge, I am now ready to jump back on the scene and re-train as a qualified Dog Trainer. I will be assisting with obedience classes on a Monday and Thursday evening and all day Saturdays, sharpening my knowledge so that I can begin to take the lead in classes and become an instructor in both obedience and agility.

Having grown up shadowing my mum in both classes and behaviour cases, I have also developed an interest in canine behavioural issues. Many of which I have experienced first-hand.

There is a growing need for professional advice in this area so working with Leaps and Bounds will enable me to develop my understanding of the issues that everyday people struggle with on a daily basis. So many dogs are given up due to a lack of understanding or miscommunication in regards to their behaviour.

I believe that the only way to combat this is through inspiring pet owners to commit to their dogs and educate them on fun, reward based training methods that we can use to rehabilitate negative behaviours.
