If you know me well, then you know that family comes first. Both the two legged and four legged kind.

For this reason we will be closing our doors to focus on what matter to us most. Family!

What an amazing journey this has been over the past 5 years. I have had the pleasure of helping so many wonderful pups and their families. You have welcomed me with open arms into your households and became one big extended family to me.

Your dedication to your furry family members and commitment to their training and wellbeing has been a pleasure to be a part of.

I would like to extend a huge thank you to all that have supported me and send a huge snuggle to your gorgeous pups.

Whilst I know this won’t be goodbye forever, goodbye for now.

Wishing you all the best on your training journey!

Shannon
