International Rescue Dogs are my favourite.

That's a bold statement i know. Nothing against any other dogs. I just find these dogs incredible. Their ways of communicating, reading signals, judging life, experiencing life, it's all just different.

Different in a good way. I like different. It gives us a reason to think outside the box as a trainer. I like working out the pieces of the puzzle that might be a bit more awkard to piece together.

I've worked with international rescue dogs for 10 years, and currently owned by 4 Cypriot dogs. Every day they do something that amazes me! What they've experienced in life; for example Kylie who was shot at in Cyprus, lived in a pound for 18 months before she was rescued and then eventually found her way to my sofa, She has an understandable fear of missing out on everything; hates men in hats and giraffes on the TV. But this is all exxplainable given what she's been through in life.

International rescues are quite often a closed book. They keep their cards close to their chest. But once you start to build that bond, you'll find a very incredible dog underneath that just needed to be listed to.

I've recently started an International Rescue Dog Academy for guardians and their dogs. A fun, friendly and non-judgemental group of like minded owners with a dog trainer in your pocket! It's £10 a month with lots of help, tips, ideas, fun, tasks and a fortnightly live Q&A session with me as well as online support. There's such a gap in dog training for owners, and having experienced and dealt with so much over the years with my rescues, i have alot of experience, training and behaviour knowledge that can help you and your dog set yourselves up for success!
