The Dog Within - Canine Behaviourist & Puppy Coach

When Lorraine from The Dog Within first met with us I was terrified I would have to rehome one of my Dogs as they had suddenly starting fighting with each other and the trust between them had broken down, they couldn’t even be in the same room before meeting Lorraine.
