Giving dogs a second chance

Introducing yourself to new arrivals you will use your skills and experience in training and behavioural work to assess each dog and recognise those that may need guidance to change their behaviour on their way to finding the right home and the right owner. Be it a youngster who has missed out on learning some basic manners to restoring the confidence in a traumatised dog you will know how best to develop and work on suitable programmes that can change a dog's life for the better.
