About Me

"I'm Sam and I have worked at Guide Dogs for over 14 years. I thoroughly enjoy coaching a wide range of owners and their adorable pooches and I decided to set up my own puppy classes in Kent to help dog owners.

​

I have a Certificate of Education in Canine Assistance: Puppy Education and Development from the University of Chester, and I am also in the process of completing my Canine Instructor Course with the Professional Association of Canine Trainers (PACT), which is accredited with the Animal Behaviour and Training Council (ABTC). 

​

I will support you to become the owner your dog would choose, using positive, science-based training methods. My classes and individual training sessions are quite different to your more traditional dog training techniques, as I aim to get your dogs to choose the behaviour you would like, without the need for you to "make" them do it. 

​

I hope to help you foster the start of a lifelong partnership with your dog that is built on empathy and trust."
