My name is Jo (Joanne) and I have in excess of 20+ years experience working with dogs of all breeds and temperaments, formerly as a professional dog handler (Hampshire and Thames Valley Police - now retired ) and latterly as a pet dog behaviourist and trainer.
I am passionate about what I do and will work with you, either on a 1:2:1 basis, or in a group setting, to problem solve and give you th
e skills required to have a 'New Beginning' with your dog.
I am a hands on trainer who won't just stand back and tell you what to do. I will show you, guide you and give you the knowledge and explanations necessary, in a friendly and positive way, to facilitate you then being able to continue to train your dog. As well as addressing behavioural issues and teaching general obedience, I also teach Scent Detection and Tracking. I have my own dogs and I am also an Accredited Kennel Club Assured Breeder of English Springer Spaniels. www.Newbeginningsdogtrng.co.uk
