Meet Karen

‘Most Patient Dog Behaviourist’ in the South East 2022 ‘Dog Training Specialist of the Year’ London & South East England 2021-2025

I love helping dogs so much that I left a 20-year career in fashion PR to retrain as a dog behaviourist and trainer. I am fully qualified and accredited as a Dog Behaviourist by the IMDT – the Institute of Modern Dog Trainers, and I’m proud to be vet-recommended.

No two dogs are the same and I approach each one uniquely and with empathy. My mindset extends to the dog’s owner,
too; building a bond between ownerand dog
makes training a pleasure for you both.
