By investing in bespoke support, you will get help which best meets the needs of your puppy and the professional support to pre-empt hiccups you may not have anticipated, potentially saving you trouble later on.

Are you struggling with a wayward dog?
Do you feel worried, disappointed, cross or maybe ashamed about how things are?
Or maybe you dream of going for a peaceful walk with your dog; he comes when called, walks nicely on the lead and is focused mostly on you.
If this is you, both you and your dog deserve better and there are solutions.
I offer bespoke support allowing your needs to be met in a way which works for you and your dog.
For more on my approach to dog training click here.
Other common concerns include:
Loose lead walking
Discover how to meet your dog’s emotional needs while out and about so they can learn how to walk nicely on the lead.
Anxiety related behaviours
Whether the cause is circumstantial, nutritional, physical, genetic or a combination, there are solutions and together we can find which will work for your dog.
Limited life skills
Learn how to build your dog’s ‘soft skills’ such as confidence, impulse control or calmness which then leads to great behaviour choices.
Testimonials
No more barky dog!
Sena was nervous and barky with guests so I reached out to Joy for some help. She provided some simple enrichment tools which really helped to lift Sena’s mood meaning she was far less stressed and barky when visitors came. Joy then provided some further exercises which I am still working through but I am very pleased with the progress. Her approach has worked where others’ have not! Thank you.

New puppy support
Gaining support and advice from Joy was the best start we could have given our new puppy, Dusty. She was clear, practical and very relevant and personal to our dog and context. Joy had a thorough knowledge of the different games she suggested for each of the goals we were working on appropriate for the breed. They worked well and everyone in the family was able to participate in the training. Dusty also loved all the games and fully engaged.
So thank you from Dusty and his family!

Resource guarding Frenchie
Joy went over and above to help us. She explained why the problems happened, modelled each exercise with us and then provided guidance as we learnt. She was patient and encouraging so I felt confident when working with Joy. Sonia is doing much better and is playing with the other dogs rather than resource guarding. I never thought we would get this problem fixed. I feel very relieved.
