WHAT WE BELIEVE AND PRACTICE

Our Philosophy

We believe, like our human relationships, all relationships with dogs should include communication, trust and mutual respect.

We believe in-person connection and communication, trumps any other form of connection. There is huge value in being present, in the moment, with the dog and person in front of you.

We help you to set out clear consistent boundaries, fair expectations, to avoid conflict and misunderstanding and to learn practical skills you can apply to everyday life with your dog.

We use positive methods that are based on the latest science, neuroscience, biology, behaviour analysis and philosophy. We help you to better understand your dogs behaviour to enhance life together in a positive way.

We know dogs can think for themselves and encourage owners to facilitate this through appropriate guidance and choice making to enable learning, whilst being safe and calmly behaved.

We believe all education should be fun and accessible for all ages and learning styles.
