A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME

IMG_1538.jpg

Dogs are amazing, aren’t they? I’ve always thought so. As a kid, when I wasn’t allowed to have one, I’d walk around with a leash pretending I had a dog!

Looking back, I now understand that my dad’s “No” was a responsible choice having a dog is a big commitment.

Hi, I’m Julia! I’ve been involved in the dog world for over a decade. I started with dog walking, daycare, and taking courses on behaviour, worked at Dogs Trust.

Life took me in different directions, but I always found my way back to dogs.

As a client at Pup School Suffolk, training my own dog introduced me to the IMDT

(Institute of Modern Dog Trainers)

 

In 2023, I made the decision to follow my passion and become a certified dog trainer.
Why does being certified matter? Because while anyone can call themselves a dog trainer, formal qualifications ensure that the methods I use with you and your dog are

science-backed, ethical, and effective. My training approach is fear-free and focused on building a strong bond between you and your dog. I never use aversive tools or techniques that create fear or discomfort. Instead, I am a fully reward-based trainer, committed to helping your dog learn with confidence, trust, and joy.

We started training when my dog was just under three years old, and I honestly had concerns that it would be almost impossible to achieve real progress. Both he and his brother from the same litter had always been quite unruly, with little to no recall, so I wasn't sure how much could be changed at that stage.The turnaround in less than 12 weeks has been remarkable. The improvement in his behaviour, confidence and responsiveness has exceeded all my expectations. Most importantly, the bond between us has grown enormously. He now happily walks alongside me off lead and returns reliably when called, even when given the freedom to wander.Julia has done a fantastic job of recognising exactly what my dog needed and adapting each training session to bring out the very best in him. Her understanding, patience and tailored approach have made all the difference. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to build a stronger relationship with their dog while achieving real, lasting results.
