Welcome to P.A.W.S. Hunter Behavioural Dog Training.

​​

I specialise in offering bespoke training specifically tailored to your dog's unique situation. My approach is to focus on understanding the root cause of the behaviour. Then implement a training program to modify the behaviour, as well as look at the whole picture and aid you in bringing balance back to your dog mentally and physically. Resulting in a well balanced home for your dog and your family. My techniques are positive based (no aversive techniques are used).

​​

We always set up for success, and never punish the dog if they don’t succeed (that means we went too quickly). We are training behaviours, increasing their confidence and developing our bond with them. My background page with give you an insight into my history with dogs, especially nervous/reactive and rescue dogs.
