My name is Nicola and, after 46yrs working in accounts including 18yrs teaching adults, I am now following my passion of working with dogs through my business "Fraggle's Paws" as a qualified dog trainer with IMDT (The Institute of Modern dog Trainers). All the uniquely individual dogs I have known, beginning with my grandfather's border terrier, Henry, through all the cuddly and feisty dogs of fam
ily and friends, to those I have been privileged to own, have inspired me to help others along their journey of dog ownership and, since 2017, I have accumulated over 450hrs volunteering with Dogs Trust Dog School. Fraggle's Paws is named after my first rescue dog - a quirky, worried boy who decided to choose me for his forever home and taught me so much, along with my first dog Tom, whom I was honoured to inherit from my late neighbours. Tom and Fraggle inspired me to undertake hours of learning in order to help them live their best lives with me, and that learning has not stopped, with my current two rescues teaching me new things every day. Fraggle's Paws services include:
Basic Training Workshops (2 - 4 dogs) - Small group (2 -5 dogs) beginners (Easy Peasy Puppy up to 6 months and adolescent/adult dog options) and improvers classes (IMDT Pertnership Grades) - 1-2-1 Training - Solo Training Walks. Please follow this page or email/message me for more information; availability; dates; venues; and prices. I am fully insured and only use positive reward and concept based training methods so that you and your dog have the best possible experience to take forward in your lives together. Your Puppy or Dog will receive a Certificate of Attendance at the end of your course.
