My Dog Training Journey

My journey into dog training began not only as a personal pursuit but also out of necessity for my dog Malayah. At the time Malayah was reactive towards other dogs, lunging, barking and even attempting to bite when approached. What should have been peaceful, enjoyable walks, instead became distressing and emotionally taxing experiences, for both me and Malayah.

After working with several dog trainers and seeing little real progress, I decided to take matters into my own hands. That decision led me to become a certified dog trainer. I dedicated countless hours to training sessions and socialisation, determined to help my dog become the companion I always knew she could be.

Now, after honing my skills and gaining hands-on experience, I’m deeply committed to helping you do the same. My goal is not only to improve your dogs behaviour, but to help you understand the root of the problem and how to maintain life after training. All while building a life where you can enjoy the off-lead freedom they truly deserve.
