CHIEF
INSTRUCTOR:

Richard
Level 4 - Behavioural & Aggression Expert

About me:

I am a highly qualified and dedicated professional in the field of canine care and training. My extensive credentials include Canine First Aid training, an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) certification, and comprehensive liability coverage, all of which are fundamental to ensuring the safety and well-being of your beloved pets.
 

As a fully qualified dog trainer, I employ a method that centres on "loving leadership" to guide dogs toward a brighter and more secure future. My experience spans a diverse spectrum of canine personalities, including tiny yet aggressive dogs, giant and anxious companions, and the standard, good-natured canines in need of basic obedience and safety training.
 

My strength lies in my ability to establish profound connections with dogs, allowing me to communicate effectively in their unique language. By setting the stage for their success, I create an environment where they can truly flourish and revel in the best experiences life has to offer.
 

With a rich history of successfully working with hundreds of dogs, I have consistently achieved remarkable outcomes. These achievements resonate with satisfied customers who have witnessed the transformation of their beloved pets under my care and guidance. Your dog's well-being and development are my utmost priorities, and I look forward to the opportunity to serve both you and your furry companion.

INSTRUCTOR:

Rebecca
Level 2 Instructor

About me:

I embarked on my journey with Richards Local Dog Training in July 2023, where I am diligently working to earn my qualifications as a dog trainer. My unwavering passion for dogs, their behaviour, and my ability to decipher their emotions have been the driving forces behind my commitment to this field.

From a young age, I devoted countless hours to studying videos and articles about dogs, meticulously observing their behaviour and deciphering their intricate body language. This early fascination laid the foundation for my deep understanding of canine companions.
 

I possess a natural affinity for forming swift and meaningful connections with dogs, regardless of their size or breed. My experience extends across a diverse spectrum of dogs, further enriching my knowledge and skill set.
 

While I am currently dedicated to my college studies, I have ambitious plans to further my education in the realm of dog behaviour, veterinary care, and dog grooming. I am steadfast in my commitment to honing my skills and knowledge to become a proficient and compassionate dog trainer.

About me:

Hello! My name is Georgina, and I joined the team at the end of 2024 with a passion for providing fun, engaging, and reliable dog walking services. My goal is to ensure that every dog in my care enjoys a safe, stimulating, and enriching experience.
 

I am currently working towards my Level 2 Dog Training certification, expanding my knowledge to better understand canine behavior, training techniques, and positive reinforcement methods. My love for dogs goes beyond just walking and training—I am constantly researching and learning about different breeds, puppy development, and effective training strategies to enhance my skills.
 

Whether your dog is big, small, energetic, or a little shy, I believe every pup deserves the best care, attention, and affection. I take great pride in building trust with both dogs and their owners, ensuring a personalized approach that suits each dog’s individual needs.

I look forward to meeting you and your furry companion!
