Despite wanting to be a vet when I was younger, I fell into the world of Human Resources (HR) and worked as a Consultant for 20 years, but always maintained my passion and love for dogs.  

 

Growing up I was never without a dog, and was always intrigued about the relationship between owner and canine.  Why were some dogs well behaved and others not, was a question I very often pondered.  It was only when I moved into my own house and acquired two Border Collie puppies that I really needed an answer to my question.  Their behaviour was out of control, from separation anxiety to attacking other dogs, they had it all.  Enough was enough, so I called in a Dog Behaviourist, and after only 48 hours of following simple techniques, the problems diminished considerably.  He helped me to see where I had gone wrong and the importance of being able to understand the canine language, which prompted my career change many years later .   

 

In 2016 after having re-trained as a Dog Behaviourist, I founded Hounds 'n' Harmony and went on to train further with an amazing lady called Jan Fennell.  In 2017, after sadly loosing my own dog, I added Exclusive Dog Boarding to my services and I'm currently training in Kinesiology, which I plan to incorporate into my behaviour program.
