TONI PATCHING

I use positive reinforcement to change behaviours and help owners to read their dogs body language so they can be prepared for any scenario. I want the dog and owner relationship to change and become a happier one.
I am also the local stockist for Perfect Fit Harnesses, which with a double ended lead can help take back the control when you have a dog pulling you down the road.

HELEN BANNAN

I love working with dogs of all ages and breeds using treats and toys to motivate them to learn. Helping owners teach their best friend to make the right decisions that create an impressive level of team work and trust.
My proudest moment as a professional dog trainer was watching the puppies that I had trained from 8weeks old becoming qualified Assistance Dogs and going on to transform lives.
As a dog owner, my greatest moment was when my rescue Staffie cross won a national competition for a talented pet to star in a TV advert and both of my rescue dogs went on to do modelling jobs.
