Work with someone who gets it
You’re probably here because you’re looking for help with your dog and trying to find the right trainer or behaviourist to work with. I get it, there are a lot of us out there, and we all work a little differently. You want to be sure you’re choosing someone who can help you and your dog.
I know how you feel.
When I rescued Tywin, I was suddenly faced with challenges I didn’t expect, and I felt unsure about where to turn. That experience was the start of my journey into dog training and behaviour work, and it shaped the way I support dogs and their families today.
Like most dog trainers & behaviourists, I got started after struggling with my own dog's behaviour and needing to find help.
In my case, that dog was a Belgian Shepherd called Tywin. He came with an extreme fear of people and traffic, along with a rare birth defect that caused him pain throughout his life. Unfortunately, I struggled to find professional help that fit our situation or his needs, so I began studying and learned how to help him myself.
Thankfully, we were able to work through his challenges, and he became my work dog, where he helped hundreds of other dogs overcome their issues, until he passed in 2024.
My experience with Tywin showed me just how difficult life with a challenging dog can be and how crucial it is to work with someone who not only understands your struggles but can also guide you through them. If that’s what you’re looking for, you’re in the right place.
"Working with Anthony has surpassed all of our expectations!"
"His experiences with rescues (we have a 5 month staff cross) has been invaluable in helping Olive get back on her feet. He is kind, extremely knowledgeable and always happy to help in any way possible with a variety of solutions to the same situation depending on your dogs needs and personality. Puppy classes did not work for Olive hence why we started 1:1s with Anthony, Olive has come on leaps and bounds in just 8 weeks. Hand on heart, I couldn't recommend it enough and I truly believe you won't regret it!"
"Thank you for continuing to support us Anthony"
"He’s given us countless amounts of time, patience, resources, responses (I have messaged him a LOT!). He’s always straight to the point and extremely kind and caring in his work, to the point that he’s trying to get along with my very shy nearly 2 year old daughter who is at every session we have. It goes a long way to have manners, empathy, a kind soul and be very knowledgeable about the breed of dog he is training, and Anthony does all of that with ease. If you need a dog trainer who bases their ethnics on positive reinforcement and no rubbish, Anthony is your guy."
