Dog Owner Resources – Tips & Trusted Info from Dexter’s Dogs

It can be a minefield trying to find a reputable trainer or a safe boarder for your best friend.

Training is unregulated which means anyone can call themselves an 'expert', or 'behaviourist' or 'trainer' even if they have no clue about canine behaviour and are using outdated and harmful methods and ideas.

Here then is a list of reputable people, all of whom have taken the time and trouble to study and gain relevant experience. I have referred a number of owners to them over the years.

The trainers and behaviourists below tend to cover parts of NW London and Hertfordshire.

Dilnaz, Bavaria - trainer - A Different Dog - www.adifferentdog.co.uk

Sally Sharp - trainer - Training Tails - www.trainingtails.co.uk

Luke Balsam - trainer -Luke's Dog School - www.lukesdogschool.co.uk

Jane Robinson - trainer and behaviourist - www.dogonthehill.co.uk

Penaran Higgs - trainer and behaviourist - www.petshrink.co.uk

Note - if your have insurance for your dog, that will often cover a behaviourist's fees.
