How I work
At the core of my work is a belief that dogs are individuals, not training projects. Their behaviours reflect their experiences, emotions, and genetic influences, and it is our responsibility to support them with compassion and ethical understanding, rather than force them into rigid expectations. I do this with not only compassion for the dogs but also compassion for the whole family. I know first hand, how difficult it can be living with dogs with special needs.
By combining science, empathy, multi-disciplinary working and innovation, my approach ensures that dogs are not just trained, but truly understood. Whether addressing behavioural concerns, anxiety, or fear-based responses, my goal is to help each dog thrive, creating a life rooted in trust, autonomy, and mutual respect.
Behaviour rehabilitation is not a one-size-fits-all process, nor is it a quick fix. I work closely with guardians, providing education and ongoing guidance to ensure lasting success. My membership platform offers community-driven resources and collaboration between professionals and guardians, ensuring each dog receives the holistic support they deserve.
Each dog is assessed through a structured, evidence-based lens, considering factors such as genetics, environment, health and emotional well-being. Rather than applying generic techniques, I work to uncover the root causes of behaviours, crafting thoughtful, scientifically grounded plans designed for long-term success.
The Foundations Plan
PRICE: £200
This package is designed to begin to identify and address the core needs of your dog, ensuring a tailored approach to behaviour support. It includes:
Needs Assessment – A structured form guiding an in-depth exploration of your dog’s behavioural patterns, emotional well-being, and environmental influences.
My Assessment- I dedicate focused time to thoroughly analyzing the Needs Assessment, carefully interpreting each detail to understand your dog's unique experiences, behavioural patterns, and environmental influences. This process allows me to begin shaping an individualised plan that prioritises humane, science-based solutions tailored to their specific needs.
Consultation – A dedicated session where we discuss your dog’s unique experiences, challenges, and strengths, focusing on humane, science-based solutions.
Written Behaviour Plan – A detailed, actionable plan crafted specifically for your dog, providing compassionate, evidence-based strategies to support their well-being and behaviour.
I take on a limited number of cases each year to ensure that my clients receive the time, attention, and individualized support they deserve. Because of this, I recommend reaching out for an initial call, which lasts approximately 15–20 minutes, to determine if I am the right fit for your needs. If I am unable to take on your case, I will always provide guidance and referrals to other qualified professionals who may be able to assist.

ANutritional Needs Assesment and Support
I conduct comprehensive nutritional needs assessments to ensure your dog is receiving the best possible diet for their health and well-being. As part of this process, we ask for photos of your dog's faeces to assess their dietary needs, as the appearance and consistency of faeces can provide valuable insights into their digestive health. Our tailored nutrition plans are designed to address any specific dietary requirements and optimize your dog's overall health. Additionally, we understand the crucial link between gut health and behaviour, recognizing that a well-balanced diet can positively influence your dog's behaviour, mood, and energy levels. Through personalized support and guidance, we aim to enhance both the physical and emotional well-being of your dog. We also work with your budget, beliefs and lifestyle when choosing food.
-
Gait Analysis
As part of our package, we offer a comprehensive gait analysis to evaluate your dog's walking pattern. By closely examining gait videos, our veterinarian can identify potential pain sources, injuries, and musculoskeletal issues, providing valuable insights for tailored treatment and rehabilitation. This analysis helps ensure your dog receives the best care and support for optimal health and mobility.
