Hi, I’m Sian.
I’m a compassionate dog training coach on a mission to empower you to create a harmonious bond with your furry companion, and to give you confidence to achieve training success.
With a string of awards, I bring expertise and experience to every training session. But it's not just about having a well behaved pup – I prioritise your dog's happiness and overall well-being.
From engaging group classes to personalised one-to-one support, I offer tailored services to meet your needs. Together, we'll embark on a journey towards a calm and focused dog.
Join our community of dog parents committed to nurturing happy and healthy dogs. Ready to create a truly fulfilling relationship with your furry friend?
Let's make it happen, together!
You’re not alone in your dog’s training journey.
Puppy & dog training can feel super overwhelming. There can be tears, questions - “have I made a really bad decision?!”, all the ups and downs, and everything in between.
I’m here to help make things feel easier, and ultimately to support you to transform your dog’s behaviour. So you won’t be chasing your distracted dog at the park.
Empathy & personalised support are my focus …
Dog training, with award-winning results…
II’ll guide you through it all - whether it’s to stop them pulling on the lead, stop them getting super distracted by all the things, or to be a calm pup at the pub, I’ve got your back!
I’ve spent all the time, and the money, to build my knowledge, skills and experience based on tried and tested, science proven methods, so you don’t have to!
I’ve won multiple awards for my training, and have 5* reviews across the board!

Sian
BUSINESS OWNER & HEAD TRAINER
I’m a lover of all things nature and animals.
I’m lucky enough to have grown up surrounded by dogs - all who had their own little quirks (but don’t we all!?).
I’m a certified dog trainer and am also certified in dog first aid. I have two lovely rescue lurchers who I talk about often, and two cockatiels (Coco’s joined me in the photo!). I’d have more animals if I could!
A fun fact you might not know about me is that I can play the Cornet (brass instrument, not ice cream!) 🍦
