Hi, I’m Jess


Helping you Raise Happy, Well-Behaved Dogs

In-Person Dog Training & Classes in Bournemouth
Online Dog Training Available Worldwide

I can always remember having loved dogs. Their boundless love and optimism remind me that every day is an opportunity for joy! For me, dog training is all about enhancing the human-dog relationship, helping us to live our best lives together. While I work with dogs of all ages, I specialise in training and behaviour for puppies and adolescent dogs.

As a proud member of leading dog training institutions, I am committed to continually improving my knowledge and skills. I believe passionately in using fear-free, science-backed training methods, without relying on pain, discomfort or punishment. I am a lifetime member of the Dog Training College, have studied with the Victoria Stilwell Academy, and have trained with the IMDT and the School of Canine Science.

In addition to my dog training certifications, I am also a fully qualified teacher with a Masters in Education & Learning Theory, and I taught primary school children for five years. My teaching experience means I can deliver dog training in a way that is easy to understand and simple to follow for the whole family.
