Rescue Dogs

If you’re living with a rescue dog who struggles to settle, listen or feel safe, you already know how overwhelming it can be. Many caregivers seek help multiple times before realising the same thing: traditional, generic training approaches often don’t work for dogs with complicated histories.

These dogs need more than a textbook approach. They need someone who understands what shaped them, what drives their behaviour, and how to help them build confidence in a world that often feels unpredictable.
This is exactly why I developed my rescue-specific behaviour programmes – focused, structured and designed for dogs whose past experiences and genetics still influence their present challenges.

When I adopted my Romanian rescue dog, I was thrown in at the deep end. Well-meaning advice was everywhere, but none of it helped me understand her. It became clear that meaningful progress only comes when you dig below the surface and work with the dog in front of you, not the dog you imagined you’d adopted.
That realisation led me to qualify with the Animal Behaviour and Training Council and dedicate my work to rescue dogs who need a different type of support. Over the past four years, I’ve helped hundreds of dogs, including many who had challenging starts in life, learn to decompress, trust, and thrive in their new lives.
