My name is Ellen Davies. I grew up with dogs, cats and horses and have always found it fascinating to see how they behave and learn. I started out working in pet shops whilst at School then a few years later in 2004 I decided to go to college to become a Veterinary Nurse. I qualified in 2010 and went on to be the Head Veterinary Nurse in a Veterinary Surgery in the outskirts of Woking. I have always had the ambition to work for myself so shortly after achieving my Veterinary Nursing qualification, I started up my own small business looking after peoples cats and dogs whilst owners where away. This then spread to dog walking and cat sitting on a more regular basis. (See Dog Walking/Holiday Pet Care pages)

After many years of attending a dog agility club with my little Jack Russell, Marley, I decided my passion extended to dog training. In 2010 I opened my own dog agility club and am so very proud of Four Paws Agility Club in Mayford , Surrey. I decided to open a 'Fun Agility Club' as i found the pressure of competing for some dog owners can put them off of starting such an amazing sport. (See Four Paws Agility Club page)


Soon after starting my agility club I took the necessary qualifications needed to become a Dog Trainer. I own two rescue dogs that have a past of being badly mistreated by previous owners and I know from experience how hard it is to overcome their experiences and move forward towards a better life. Using the techniques I was taught and adapting my lifestyle for the better, my dogs are now much more relaxed and can just be dogs without stress. I have continued to offer 1-2-1 home consultations to help owners and their dogs to achieve the same success I have. (See Dog Training/Behaviour page). In addition to home consultations, I also run Four Paws Puppy Training and Socialisation on a Tuesday evening and Saturday morning in Ash and Mayford, Surrey. As I had had such great success with my home consultations for adult dogs, I realised it would be greatly benificial to run puppy classes to help prevent behavioural problems in the future. Using my dog training background, I train and advise owners how best to raise their puppies to be happy, well rounded and well socialised in the most natural and positive way. In addition to puppy training, I also offer Puppy Agility and Obedience courses. (See Puppy Training page and Dog Training/behaviour page). Qualifications

Help!

I’d love your advice please 🙏

I’ve recently advertised a Brand New Kids Club!

It’s for families with their children and dogs to come along each week to a 45 minute session in a large indoor sand school in Llangain (near Llansteffan beach). The children would be working with their dogs, teaching them tricks, doing some fun agility as well as scent work and learning how to look after their pets and safety around dogs.

I had planned for it to be on a Tuesday at 5pm each week and on a monthly rolling block so that parents didn’t have to commit for too long (I know what it’s like with kids and clubs!)

I’ve only charged £12 per session to make it as affordable as possible for parents while hoping to just about cover my costs for venue hire etc.

Sadly I’ve only had one parent book on despite lots of initial interest.

Is this something you’d be interested in joining for your kids and dogs? If so, is there a better day/time that would be more suitable?

With the summer holidays fast approaching, I wonder if a day time would be better? My worry is that parents still need to work.

I’d love to hear your thoughts. Thank you 🙏

🐾 Confidence & Sniff Adventure Club – Session One 🐾

What a wonderful start to our very first Confidence & Sniff Adventure Club today! ❤️

Our first session took place indoors, giving the dogs a safe, calm environment to explore without the added pressure of lots of distractions or triggers.

We introduced a variety of interesting items for them to investigate, encouraging them to use their incredible noses in a relaxed and thoughtful way.

We also began teaching a simple hand touch exercise. It may look like a small skill, but it carries a powerful message: we don’t need to physically move, pull or manhandle our dogs. Instead, we can guide them through choice, communication and trust. By teaching that hands are safe and rewarding, we help our dogs feel more confident and strengthen the bond we share with them.

The dogs were also introduced to recall around distractions, learning that choosing to come back to their owners can be rewarding and worthwhile.

To finish, we gave the dogs the opportunity to settle on their blankets if they wished. Not because they were told to, but because they genuinely felt safe, comfortable and relaxed enough to do so. A true settle comes from emotional wellbeing, not obedience.

Every single dog and owner did brilliantly today. It was lovely to see confidence beginning to grow, relationships strengthening and dogs learning that the world can be explored at their own pace.

I hope everyone enjoyed it as much as I did!

Next week, if all goes to plan, we’ll be taking our adventure to the beach… and I can’t wait! 🏖️🐾

⭐ We currently have just one space remaining on this course. Sessions take place on Thursdays at 10:30am in a variety of dog-friendly locations around Carmarthen. If you’d like to join us and help your dog build confidence through calm exploration, choice and adventure, please get in touch.

Well we did it!

13 miles later and some very achy legs and we’ve completed the half marathon hike in the Brecons in aid of Cancer Research UK 🥳

As you can see, the views were absolutely stunning but weather was a little hit and miss today ☔️ ☀️ ⛅️ so rather muddy and slippy terrain but we absolutely loved it! 🤩

It’s not too late to donate so please send what you can if you’d like to. We would really appreciate any donations we can get. Thank you 🙏.

🐾 From nervous beginners to an unstoppable team! 🐾

“Just wanted to say thank you! Teddy and I both loved agility last night! It’s funny but I feel like we bonded even more! I wonder if we have a little champion on our hands 😂🤣 Thank you for being the best dog trainer in the world ever!”

💞 Messages like this are exactly why I love what I do. Watching dogs and their owners grow in confidence together is the greatest reward of all.

🐕 Agility isn’t just about jumps, tunnels and learning new skills. It’s about building trust, strengthening your relationship and having fun together.

Well done Teddy and his wonderful owner – I can’t wait to see what you achieve next! 💜🐾
