ABOUT OUR TRAINER

Emily is a fully qualified dog trainer, puppy training specialist, and certified trick dog instructor (CTDI) with 5+ years of experience in the industry. She is also well known for her educational dog training graphics, which she uses to proudly spread up-to-date training information across the web.

When training she uses science-based, force-free training methods alongside games-based training. She also focuses on good habit-building for both dog and owner using worldwide recognised habit-building methods, this allows owners to keep motivated with their training so they can get the long-term results they need.

Her focus and hope for her clients is that they will gain a true love of learning about their dogs and through their time with us they too will also begin to call themselves a 'Dog Nerd'.

ABOUT SUZI

Suzi was Emily's dog, a Jack Russell Terrier, that was rescued from Dogs' Trust. She lived to almost 18 years of age, passing in March 2024, and was always learning new things with Emily well into her twilight years. She even achieved becoming a champion-level trick dog!​

Suzi's favourite things were going on walks where she could pose for photos and chase rabbits; taking a nap in a comfortable (preferably sunny) spot; getting bum scratches, and tricking her humans into giving her extra food and titbits with her big brown eyes and non-stop wagging tail.
