🐾 Is Your Dog Anxious, Fearful, Aggressive, or Lacking Confidence? 🐾

I work gently and patiently with nervous dogs, and over my 15-year career I’ve become a specialist in helping them feel safe.
I’ve supported and rehabilitated many from heartbreaking backgrounds — from former breeding dogs to those illegally smuggled into the country who had never known safety before.

If your dog is struggling, I can help them feel safe, calm, and happy again.

My Nervous & Fearful Dog Support Package includes:
🐶 45-min virtual consultation (no pressure for your dog)
🐶 2 home visits with confidence-building games & tailored training
🐶 Personalised plan + ongoing support between sessions

Message me today and let’s help your dog feel calmer, happier, and ready to face the world

5 years ago!!
Zena and the helpful Kitty ( at times....) had the best walk together. Zena can be unsure of dogs approaching her and Kitty came along to be her new friend. Zena's owner has worked so hard with her and continues to do so and together they are making lovely progress 🐶🐕🐕‍🦺🐩😍

A first for Behind the Bark! 🐾
Meet Max — he's working through my Puppy Package virtually!

My in-person Puppy Packages have always been popular but being able to support puppies outside the area I cover is something I’m really excited about. Helping Max from afar has been such a joy! 🐶✨

Virtual consultations have been a fantastic way to connect with more owners and their dogs outside my local area. It’s so rewarding to offer personalised support that fits each client’s needs — whether we meet in person or online. 💻💛

Is Your Dog Struggling When You Leave the House? 🐾💔

Separation anxiety can be incredibly tough — not just for your dog, but for you too. The good news? With the right support, things can get better. 💛

Our 4-Session Virtual Separation Anxiety Support Package is thoughtfully designed to help you and your dog move through this challenge with patience, compassion, and strategies that are scientifically proven to work.

Why Virtual? Because in-person training can actually get in the way when it comes to separation anxiety.
✔️ When a trainer enters the home, your dog’s behavior often changes — which means we don’t see what’s really happening
✔️ Our goal is to help your dog feel safe when you’re gone — not when a new person is present
✔️ Virtual sessions allow us to observe your dog’s genuine responses and create a plan that supports lasting, real-world progress
✔️ Your dog stays relaxed in their familiar environment, and you learn how to confidently lead the process — without relying on a trainer being physically there)

🖥️ Session 1 – Understanding the Anxiety
Get clear on what separation anxiety is and how it shows in your dog.

🖥️ Session 2 – Building the Plan
Start a personalized, step-by-step training approach.

🖥️ Session 3 – Check-In & Adjust
Review progress and fine-tune the training.

🖥️ Session 4 – Looking Ahead
Plan next steps for continued success and confidence.

Plus:
✅ A personalized support plan tailored to your dog
✅ Gentle, practical guidance between sessions

Whether your dog is showing signs of stress when you leave or you're just beginning to notice changes — you're not alone, and there’s help.

📩 Send a message today to learn more or book your first session.
Let’s help your dog feel safe, secure, and confident again. 💕

I made this video a year ago, after hearing from five clients in one week who came to me following difficult experiences with other so-called “trainers” or “behaviourists.”

It was heartbreaking and frustrating. There is absolutely no need to use force, fear, or intimidation to change a dog’s behaviour. That approach doesn’t teach trust, it damages it.

Our dogs don’t need to be punished for what we don’t want.
They need to be shown what we do want, with patience, clarity, and kindness.

💛 Let’s be nice to dogs 💛
