Hi it’s me Hels ☺️

I'm here to help you and your dog succeed in living the life you always imagined. The idea for this page and business is a positive but informed approach to training, and helping you to think about the behaviour you want your dog to do. I am advocating for a movement towards you as an owner, being able to consider your dog holistically and as the wonderfully emotional and varie

d individual that they are. Consider this platform a subversion of the typical good vs bad tropes we hear so much of and an evolution towards expanding the vocabulary of owners everywhere!

​I’m offering in person sessions, zoom and virtual advice, courses, q&a’s, breed specific support, a listening ear, and a science based and informed approach to keeping your household happy and your dog’s tail waggy. We’ll be answering all the why’s around dog behaviour and helping owners support their dogs. Join me in the dog behaviour transformation and see for yourself how simple change can affect your relationship with your dog.

Destress Your Walks is a 2 week sprint for owners of barky, lungy and reactive dogs who are tired of guessing on every walk. Instead of another generic course, you’ll learn to read your own dog’s emotions, arousal and recovery, and build your own plan, a decision-making blueprint built around your dog, not everyone else’s.

By the end, you won’t have a different dog, that takes tiiiime…. But you’ll have an actual plan: knowing exactly what today’s walk needs, and why, instead of hoping for the best and bracing for the worst.

Calm walks aren’t luck. They’re a system and this builds you yours.

The doors to the Destress your walks 2 week sprint training are open for this week!

Why should you think about making a change now?

Well my ethos is all about trying to do this properly, slowly, and robustly.

But if you haven’t got the knowledge to even know where to start then this is why the sprint is for you.

Inside you’ll get a daily drop of training, where you learn how to navigate your dog’s big totes emotes behaviour.
You’ll have a task to do each day which helps you recognise how to better use your treats, read your dog, approach walks and more.
You’ve got me in your pocket for 2 weeks. Which tbh is going to be the most valuable part of this. I give feedback, answer questions and we’ve got the 2 live calls if you have anything you want to actually chat over!
Finally… You leave with a plan. Your own adaptable plan. Sense checked by me, and one you can use for as long as you need it down the line.

So what are you waiting for? Comment Sprint below or find out more at the link in my bio.

Iykyk!

I’m a science fanatic, relationship based, ethically and morally obsessed, critically minded, clinically trained animal behaviourist.

To you this means:

🌸 I will never compromise on yours or your dogs welfare

🌸 I will always keep asking the questions to get you the results you need

🌸 I will always try to help and I’ll always use my expertise to guide and shape change to get you real results!

I’ve poured all this into the 2 week sprint I’m running in September.

Real change, real support for a low cost.
I can’t promise the big transformation. If you want that my mentorship is where it’s at, but I can promise movement forwards, knowledge and skills and I can promise I’ll give you the answer to any question you ask!

Those who work and know me closely know this is all true.

Doors opening again soon!

Each slide has its own caption.

When Andy first met me he hadn’t met a new person for a number of years.

Andy is an amazing example of a dog who has an owner that just gets him. Andy has always struggled with people and dogs but this is made a lot worse by his fluctuating pain levels. He has polyarthritis. 4 or more arthritic joints. It’s a lot. He went to sleep one day and woke up unable to walk. When it’s acute it’s awful. When it’s ok it’s manageable but it has always impeded progress and Ange thought they’d be stuck forever.

Add in an awful experience with a trainer who advised the worst aversive methods, a vet behaviourist who offered a plan and no support (p**f disappeared into the ether) and you’ve suddenly got a situation where you don’t really trust the people who are meant to help you!

Sound familiar?

Next slide 👉

Andy and I had never met before here. I had spent some time warming him up at a distance making sure he felt comfortable and not closing any distance or making any unnecessary movement/encroaching eye contact.

After a little bit he was able to do some looking at me and engaging and then he was genuinely curious as you can see.

It’s taken a while but he now shows curious optimism around certain people he’s never met. He’s actually built some form of trust and has been able to make a mindset shift towards not necessarily thinking people are immediately horrible.

He managed his first hands on full vet exam in Feb and now has hydrotherapy where the therapist is building up touching around his rear - something super sensitive for Andy. This is a work in progress but wouldn’t have even been attempted a year ago.

Lots of hard work, analysis and attention to detail has gone into prepping him for that.

We’ve used a few different strategies - this is one where he can see people and know food is available. He can see that a trigger is there but rather than leave him to his own devices he is nicely under control and needs the clarity that the visual food gives him.

Literally a few days ago he walked past a dog at less than 4m of distance. This would also have been unheard or maybe 6 months ago.

This passive play which we also int

I’ve always been that open and honest person when it comes to trying to help you.

I have always felt like there’s this mystery magic cure for reactive or aggressive or totes emotes behaviour that we’re just not being told.

The amount of cpd courses I did back in the day to find it was ridiculous. I didn’t realise that actually it’s not some cure, it’s about knowing how to respond to the dog in front of you.

Depending on the things your dog does, your strategy will be different.

The things you need to do and know are different.

And in reality you need to know how to adjust to 3 things:

Your training situation - how do I make sure these walks go well and things are well set up.

Your abort mission situation - how do I get out of this messy reaction

Your emotional change situation - how do I get my dog to feel differently.

These all require thought (from me to start with) from you to maintain the change and positive trajectory.

So the sprint will help you figure these things out and you’ll leave with a plan you can adapt for months to come.

So I’ll be letting you know shortly how you can join if you missed out over the weekend.

We can simultaneously laugh and cry and our dogs reactive behaviour and these Sunday evening reminders are just here to tell you that someone out there wants you to succeed.

My whole business exists because I had never felt so alone, isolated and confused when it came to my reactive dog.

If you can relate then trust me when I say this sprint is designed for you.

I want you to know that i want your dog to get better.

I want you to know that I’m here to listen to help and to really do the full job.

A sprint isn’t going to fix everything but information in this industry is saturated with mixed signals and my whole ethos is that I want you to have someone you can trust, and who knows how it feels.

So this is me, the person who wants to help. The person not trying to make hundreds of pounds from some cookie cutter plan that won’t even work.

This is the same reason I do my podcast, my 5 days challenges, and if you’ve enjoyed those then this is a logical fit for you.

Join me, the sprint doors are closing at 8pm so that I can get you all your free bonus training.

If you need support now for yours and your dog’s walks then head to the link in my bio.
