Qualifications and Credentials
About Me
I live just outside Haverfordwest with my husband and two children, two dogs, five chickens, and various other pets.
Toby is our three year old Springer Spaniel who loves nothing better than to swim and chase seagulls.
Asha is our year old German Shepherd who loves nothing better than a cuddle or a raw egg!
Both dogs have been clicker trained from puppies and while Asha has to be at competition standard in Obedience by next year for my degree course, they are both first and foremost, family dogs.
In a largely unregulated profession, I have worked very hard to gain qualifications and experience in order to provide my customers with assurances of quality and professionalism.
I am a member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers, having been assessed according to their updated procedures and Code of Conduct (http://www.apdt.co.uk/). This gives my customers assurances of kind, professional, ethical and proven dog training methods.
I am now two thirds of the way through my degree in Canine Behaviour and Training having studied everything from evolution to advanced leaning theory and everything in between it seems - with still a year's study left to go! This qualification also involves training my own dog to competition standard in our chosen disclipline.
I am also a student member of the Kennel Club's Accredited Instructor Scheme (http://www.thekennelclub.org.uk/), which aims to provide the best possible service to the dog-owning public and training enthusiasts. The scheme is a relatively new initiative aiming to recognise the skills and experience in the sector and my degree course dovetails with this scheme.
I have also completed the APDTs (Association of Pet Dog Trainers) Open College Accredited Course.
I am fully insured for all aspects of my work.
