Meet Debbie
I am a qualified Behaviourist, with a primary focus on Canine and Equine Behaviour. My passion for working with dogs and horses stretches back over 20 years and in that time, there's very little I haven't come across when it comes to animal behaviour! I trained at Bristol Vetinary School and worked for The Dog's Trust for over a decade, where we dealt with on average, 1000 rescue dogs per year.
I treat each animal as if it was my own, using only positive methods in my training. I love working with both owner and animal to help you understand why your animal is behaving in a certain way. We then put a plan in place with together in order to move forwards.
I have four companion dogs who follow me everywhere and an Irish Sports Horse who's a dressage champion, but would much rather be jumping!
Please do give me a call for a free consultation.
