ABOUT ME 

Hi, my name is Lindsey and I have lived in Malmesbury for 7 years. I have a passion for dogs and I have 6 years experience training dogs and supporting owners to better understand and meet their dogs needs. I have a Jack Russell Terrier called Elvis. Malmesbury locals may recognise this little chap! One day I will also have a Gun dog.

I have completed training through the Cambridge Institute of Dog Behaviour and Training, the Institute of Modern Dog Trainers (IMDT) and a variety of other courses and workshops.

I want YOUR dog to be happy, healthy and safe. This can be achieved with good leadership to develop a trusted caring relationship and understanding how to meet your dogs needs so that can learn.

Confident Leadership Principles

These are the key areas all dog owners need to focus on to achieve a harmonious relationship with their dog… 

On Your Terms - Clear and effective communication, setting the expectations, boundaries and building trust.  Inside and Outside - The walk begins at home!

Food - You are the resource manager - meet your dogs‘ basic needs by providing appropriate, energy rich food and create a strong value associated to you.  

Safety - To take care of your dogs  physical and emotional safety. Responsible dog ownership - lifestyle and well being.

Access and Alone time - We all need peace. Be aware of attention seeking behaviour or over dependence that can lead to anxiety in your dog. Manage the space.

Limits - Know your limits and your dogs. Training doesn’t need to be hard. Know when it’s not a good time for training and that’s ok.
