About Lucy
Helping you and your puppy or dog share a wonderful life together is at the heart of what I do.
I want to help you understand your pup’s whole world; their emotional, physical and social world, and how that impacts their behaviour.
The plan always includes:
Helping you understand how to meet all their needs
Priceless email support
“From the first time Lucy came to the house, you could see that she really cared about helping both us and our dog live a better life together.
She was patient throughout and always used the most positive and welfare focused methods.
We went from a dog that would not walk at all on the lead, to a dog that now can’t wait to go! She was always willing to give lots of advice around what we could work on in between sessions and has worked on lots of different areas of his behaviour.
The email support was absolutely priceless and helped us keep on track between sessions.
With the advice on our dogs well-being, she also advised we had certain things checked out with the vet, which lead to early identification of problems that we can now hopefully have caught early enough for preventative measures.
We cannot recommend Lucy enough to others and wouldn’t hesitate to book in some further sessions if needed in the future.”

Other things to know about me!
I’m currently owned by two mixed breeds; both rescues I’ve had since pups.
Sophie
Sophie – my little worrier; Sophie is by nature very anxious and worried about things. She also has had to cope with chronic pain and medical issues, which contribute to her concerns about other people and dogs.
She has taught me so much about the importance of understanding and focusing on the emotional side of things for dogs; managing this has meant she can still live her best life.

We’ve had so many adventures together, not least of all completing and passing an intense operational Canine Search and Rescue training course.
