Dog Squad

Dog Squad Providing positive reward based dog training for all ages and breeds. IMDT registered. This is where I started my journey into training with my own dogs.

My Story

I'm Amy owner & trainer of "Dog Squad" have been around all breeds of family dogs since I was little. My first "problem" GSD came home in 2005 a 3 year old German Shepherd, which came from a rehoming centre, she wasn't great with other dogs and could be "funny" with people. Working for many years with a well respected ex police dog handler, who taught me a lot on all things GSD, using tr

aditional training methods. Since 2005 I've re-homed 9 adult GSDs from the age of 2 years upwards some with behavioural problems & some just looking for some home comforts. 2 GSD puppies & 1 Labrador. Over these years, each one has given me new challenges to work out and help "them be them" and I have undertaken lots of different training workshops, learning the new "modern" ways combined with having been involved in training clubs & classes both as an owner/trainer & helping other owners through 1-2-1 sessions with all different breeds. My page is new but have been in the training world for some years and I am keen to meet and work with new owners to pass on some of my experiences to help bring out the best in you and your dog.

These two haven’t been tracking long on grass so this was a big change for them and took to it amazingly 💜🧡

Second up learning corners was this gorgeous girl, she has a happy bounce when she is working, it makes you smile watching her learn.

She is so happy when the job is complete she wants everyone to give her belly rubs.

Great work girlie 🧡

Tuesday tracker out and about learning hard surface tracking.

Lots of variables:
- New environment
- New surface
- Strong wind crossing the track
- Lots to process

With this all in mind he adapted well, well done!

Tracking 1-2-1 with this gorgeous GSD girl 🐾

She started her tracking journey last year, has had extra time off due to being in season and this was a top up session before joining a group.

She smashed it on Saturday ⭐️

Through positive learning, enjoyment and working with them as a team, doesn’t matter how much of a break they have, the dogs switch back into tracking mode!
