A place for you and your dog to thrive

Helping dogs and their owners to create a more fulfilled, connected and easier life together through the lens of dog behaviour and ethical, kind methods

Hi, Im Ella

(the animal behaviourist)

I’m a dog trainer who is currently studying an ABTC-accredited course to become a Clinical Animal Behaviourist. An animal behaviourist is someone who works with a dog’s natural behaviour to help them live better lives with their humans. We look at all aspects of the life you share and see where we can make positive changes to create a better relationship.

My passion lies in helping dogs and owners get out into nature. I think we can learn so much about our dogs and ourselves when we do things we find a shared joy in, and being outdoors creates so many opportunities for that joy to be found and appreciated.

My goal is not for your dog to be the ‘perfect’ dog, or for you to be the ‘perfect’ owner; that’s highly unrealistic. But rather to give you and your dog the skills, confidence and self-efficacy needed for you to know that even on the hardest days, you can figure it out together.

  • Behavioural Support

    This is for dogs who struggle with more serious behavioural concerns like ‘reactivity’, resource guarding and chronic dysregulation. These are usually issues that require long-term support, booked in 4-week stints and with access to support 5 days of the week for whatever questions that need answering.

  • Training Sessions

    This service provides 121 training sessions for dogs and owners struggling with training issues, like recall, loose lead walking or appropriate play. If you don’t need daily support for the month, but still need weekly sessions, this service is for you.

Puppy raising is difficult and confusing and you will have every Tom dick and harry trying to tell you how to do it. It’s overwhelming. And it all comes from a place of love. No one wants to have a poorly behaved or managed adult dog. We all
