THE DOGOLOGY DOGS
OKI
Oki is a Japanese Shiba Inu. He is a registered Pets As Therapy dog who regularly visits care home residents where entertains them with his many tricks. He is the first and only Shiba to earn a Rally Obedience title, and he has also had some success at Agility competitions. He dabbles in dog showing and has qualified for Crufts again this year, having won his class there last year. He has given me an insight into primitive breed behaviour and taught me a lot about how to motivate dogs. Oki is currently enjoying Hoopers and Agility training as well as entering Rally Online competitions.
PANCAKE
Pancake is a young Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever, or "Toller". She loves to work and train and has already achieved Rally titles and won the Toller Rally League 2017. She is also a successful show dog, having won Best Puppy in Breed multiple times, placing well at Crufts 2018, 2019 and 2020 and she has now gained two prestigious awards called Challenge Certificates which gives her entry to Crufts for life. She is currently enjoying Agility and Hoopers training and in 2019 she made her Agility debut with some lovely successes. Pancake also competes in Rally Online competitions and won Top Rally Online Toller 2019.
ABOUT ME
I am a fully qualified dog trainer and lifelong lover of dogs. I take a particular interest in how dogs learn, keeping up to date with the most recent research. I offer training that is sympathetic to the natural behaviour of dogs, whilst giving owners the techniques and confidence to get the best out of their companion. I firmly believe that reward based training is the most effective way to help dog and owner build a strong bond, making a good working team where the dog is a valued family member. I genuinely love my work and I will do everything I can to help you in any capacity you need.
I regularly work and compete with my own dogs, enjoying a variety of different activities from Pets As Therapy to Rally and Agility. Check out the "Dogology Dogs" section to find out more!
