learning with dogs
- Are you frustrated and concerned about the behaviour of your adult rescue?
- Are you in love with your ten week old puppy but at a loss how to deal with some of his behaviour?
- Does your dog pull on the leash when on walks and you’d love to be able to take him or her on enjoyable hikes without it being a battle?
- Your dog is a wonderful companion but you’d like to explore some more exciting activities that you can do together.
- Your dog has suddenly become aggressive towards other dogs and people and you don’t know what to do.
I would love to help you and your dog have a happier more fulfilled life

IF you have a dog who loves to retrieve this will give him the opportunity to display his natural instinct to retrieve.
Trick Dog
The Trick Dog Tests have been designed by the Kennel Union of South Africa to encourage people to develop a solid relationship with their dogs through working and playing with them. I have added this to the training I will be offering in 2023.
To enter the KUSA programme all the tricks can be taught at home with online guidance, or in a group or private lesson. We will video the tricks and help you with your entry.
Teaching your dog tricks is more than just tricks. It helps you build a great relationship with your dog based on teamwork and trust. Top European Agility Instructor and Competitor Sylvia Trkman says that “Teaching a trick is the least important part of teaching tricks”.

Fall in love with a dog, and in many ways, you enter a new orbit, a universe that features not just new colors but new rituals, new rules, and a new way of experiencing attachment.
