Rachel Burman
Qualified Dog Trainer & Veterinary Nurse
My Story
After 13 years working with dogs I've noticed one thing above all: incredible transformations happen when owners truly understand their dogs, communicate clearly and use kind, consistent training methods. Building confidence, creating strong bonds and supporting our dogs emotional wellbeing are key to enjoying peaceful, happy lives together.
​
My passion for dog training and behaviour began with my little cockapoo. Over the last 4 years I've worked closely with various trainers and veterinary behaviourists to navigate the challenges we faced.
I'm a firm believer of the saying "everything happens for a reason". My girl has been my greatest teacher and strongest bond.
As a dog owner I can empathise with clients who are struggling, and as a trainer I'm in a position to help ease the stress and guide them towards positive change.
I take a holistic dog centred approach to dog training, placing a strong emphasis on mental and emotional well-being
Less Stress - More Confidence - Better Bond
