Team Members

I have a passion for super-active (some would say crazy) dogs and all the challenges they present. In eight years of professional training, I have gained a wealth of experience from general pet training to specialist training for Police or Gundog work. I am an accredited member of The Association of Pet Dog Trainers (01235), an organisation which ensures high standards of care, welfare and service to the training industry.
​
When I am not training, I work full time on the family farm, compete in scentwork trials, pick-up on a local shoot and enjoy hiking.

She currently has a springer spaniel and two working sheepdogs. Jules teaches regular scentwork, agility courses and 1-1s for us, and is a mentor for our instructing team.
Jules has a keen interest in agility and has competed at KC G7 and UKA Champ. She is currently one of only six Accredited Instructors with the KC for competitive agility. She is trained and mentored clients from foundation stage all the way to crufts. She is a KC approved Agility Judge, a scentwork UK Level 4 Instructor and Detection Dog Trials judge. She has recently launched the ScentOps Trials program, operational style scentwork trials for every dog.

Sam has been a part of the training school from day one. Sam has a huge range of experience working with dogs in kennels, the show ring and shooting field. Sam instructs most of our courses and workshops. He has a particular soft spot for working gundogs spaniels in particular as well as lurchers and greyhounds. Sam is often found getting sneaky cuddles from the locals in the pub (the four-legged kind of course!)

Samantha has a real passion for helping owners and their dogs. Having been a dog owner all her life she understands the need for good training. Either assisting or training her own dog Texas (Goldador) she can be found at the training centre most days! Texas loves his scent training and is working on finding lost cricket balls!!! Outside of training she loves walking Texas with friends and watching her son play Cricket.

Suzi assists with admin, communication and training. Owner of a working cocker spaniel, she enjoys working Buster’s mind with sniffer training, blowing off some steam on long ridgeway walks and making the most of dog-friendly pubs.
