1-1 Training & Behaviour Support

Tailored support for dogs of all ages and backgrounds who need clearer guidance, calmer routines and more confidence in everyday life.

If your dog struggles to settle, focus, walk calmly on lead, or cope with daily routines, you’ll already know how draining that can feel. Quick fixes and generic advice rarely create lasting change.

Behaviour is shaped by more than training alone. Your dog’s routine, rest, exercise, environment, and daily pressures all play a role in how they show up – which is why some dogs need support that goes deeper than basic training alone.

My training and behaviour programmes focus on practical, real-life skills that help your dog feel calmer, more settled, and more capable in everyday situations. Whether your dog is highly energetic, easily distracted, or simply missing clear foundations, we work on realistic strategies that make life easier for both of you.

Over the past four years, I’ve supported dogs to settle calmly at home, walk more comfortably on lead, reduce barking, improve focus, and build confidence in daily routines. All training is evidence-based, reward-focused, and shaped around your dog’s individual needs, motivations, and learning style.

 With the right support, your dog can make meaningful, sustainable progress, and you can enjoy life together with far less stress!

Testimonials

“We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better trainer for Ozzie when he was a puppy. Emma is absolutely amazing, so friendly, patient, and has such a calming presence. She always made both us and Ozzie feel completely at ease. Ozzie adored Emma and it was so clear how much she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. We’re so grateful for everything she taught us. I would highly recommend! Thank you Emma!”

“Before finding help, my Romanian rescue dog barked at every sound, doorbell and visitor and was constantly on edge in the home. After working with Emma, I have a calmer dog during deliveries and, with management, can invite guests into our house without my dog getting overly stressed. I can highly recommend Emma, she has transformed my anxious Romanian rescue dog.”

“Emma spent several months helping us with our Westie puppy, Tilly, who struggled with severe reactivity and anxiety. Emma has been absolutely amazing in helping us with training, behavioural guidance and advice, plus supporting us alongside our Clinical Animal Behaviourist. She is a highly skilled dog trainer who seems able to get Tilly to do things we thought would be impossible, while being equally patient with us as she shared the skills and techniques we needed to get Tilly’s challenging behaviours under control. We were very sad to hear that she is moving out of our area and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for support and training for dogs struggling with their behaviour.”

 – Jason

“We started working with Emma when we were having some behavioural issues with our then 18-month-old dog. Two years later, we’ve done everything from intermediate obedience, to scentwork, and more advanced trick training, and Emma has been superb throughout! She is a highly compassionate and professional trainer who takes the time to understand the best way to approach training rather than looking for one size fits all. Her methodologies keep things fun while building up good foundations for more advanced skills later (we never would have known getting a dog to walk backwards was so useful!). We would highly recommend Emma to anyone looking to not only improve their dogs behaviour, but change their relationship with their dog for the better.”
