Justine and Haku

Hi, I'm Justine and this is Haku my helper. I have been working with dogs for several years now, and in that time I have helped train all sorts of dogs, from exuberant puppies to more mature dogs (yes, they can still learn new tricks!).

I have been teaching people for over a decade. One of my strengths is empathising with each individual's goals and challenges. I listen carefully to your situation, tailoring my services to fit your lifestyle.

I started training dogs because I saw many caring people struggling to achieve their dreams of a happy, harmonious life with their dog. All my teaching focuses on building a trusting relationship and strong understanding between you and your dog, to help you achieve your goals.

More about Haku (the little dragon!)

Haku is still a young Springer, but he has shown from an early age to be confident and non-reactive around other dogs.

He is my work partner, and his best skill is helping dog-reactive and anxious dogs. He already has an impressive track record of helping to build other dogs' confidence.

When not helping other dogs, Haku loves getting chin scratches, racing through the forest and hunting for tennis balls.
