A New Chapter… 🐾💙

I’m so excited to finally be able to share that I’ve joined Autism Dogs Charity as a Freelance Puppy Trainer, working within their Foundation Programme.

This role means so much to me. Supporting families as they welcome their new autism assistance dogs and helping them build confident, trusting partnerships is an incredible privilege, and I’m so grateful for the opportunity to be part of such an important stage in their journey.

Many of you know how passionate I am about positive, force-free training and supporting both dogs and the people who love them. Being able to combine that passion with such meaningful work is something I’ve been working towards for a long time.

I’m looking forward to meeting all of the wonderful families I’ll be supporting and to working alongside such a dedicated team.

Thank you to Autism Dogs Charity for the warm welcome—I can’t wait to get started! 💙 🐾

This is why behaviour work is so much more than training…

A video of Roody waiting excitedly for me to arrive.

Six months ago, Roody found unfamiliar people incredibly overwhelming. Today, he associates our sessions with fun, confidence and positive experiences.

To many people this is just a happy dog.

To me, it’s a dog whose emotional response to people has completely changed.

This is why we don’t just train behaviours—we change emotions.

I’m incredibly proud of Roody, and even more proud of Ben and Izzy for the dedication they’ve shown every single week.

These are the moments that remind me why I love what I do. 🐾

Hi! I’m Georgia 🐾

I thought it was about time I introduced myself properly!

I’ve been working professionally within the canine industry since I was 15, and now at 28, I still can’t imagine doing anything else. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and helping people better understand their dogs is something I’m incredibly passionate about.

My passion for understanding dogs led me to complete a Level 3 Extended Diploma in Animal Management at Sparsholt College before going on to achieve a degree in Animal Behaviour and Psychology through Plymouth University. I’ve also completed multiple IMDT courses and am a qualified Easy Peasy Puppy Instructor through the IMDT. I strongly believe that learning never stops, so I continue to invest in my education to provide the best possible support for the dogs and owners I work with.

I’ve been running my own business for just under two years, and it’s been amazing to meet so many wonderful dogs (and their humans!) along the way.

Everything I do is based around positive reinforcement and force-free training. My goal is to help owners build a relationship with their dog that’s based on trust, understanding, and clear communication. Every dog is an individual, so I love finding training approaches that work for both the dog and the person.

I currently offer:
🐶 Puppy Packages
🐾 Behaviour Support
🌿 Enrichment Walks
🚶‍♀️ Monthly Neutrality Walks

Whether you’ve got a brand-new puppy, you’re navigating behavioural challenges, or you’re just looking for fun ways to enrich your dog’s life, I’m here to help.

Thank you to everyone who’s supported my little business over the last couple of years—it genuinely means the world. ❤️

Now I’d love to get to know you! Tell me about your dog below. What’s their name, breed (or best guess!), and your favourite thing to do together? 🐾

Why are neutral organised dog walks so beneficial? 🐾

• Builds calm social skills
• Reduces anxiety around other dogs
• Helps reactive or nervous dogs gain confidence
• Creates positive experiences in a controlled environment
• Makes walks calmer and more enjoyable for dogs and owners alike

Dogs learn to co-exist calmly without the pressure of constant interaction — exactly how healthy socialisation should look ✨

One of my favourite parts of this video isn’t even the recall — it’s the automatic check-ins when she first catches sight of the birds 👀✨

The moment she spots the birds, you can see her flick back to me first. That choice matters. That’s the foundation. A dog acknowledging the environment and still staying mentally connected to their handler.

For me, training isn’t about shutting down natural instincts. My whippet was bred to notice movement and want to chase — that drive is part of who she is. The goal is teaching her that engaging with me is just as valuable as engaging with the environment 💨

And that’s why I believe in using certain behaviours as jackpot/ life rewards for strong decisions. If she recalls beautifully off prey, sometimes the reward is being released back to run, explore, or safely engage with the world again. Coming back to me doesn’t always mean the fun ends 🍃 🐇 🌳

Seeing lovely progress from this pair 🌟

Blu’s strength on the lead, combined with his reactivity, caused his owner to feel anxious about taking him out. Today’s session started in the garden, focusing on building solid foundations for loose lead walking. We then slowly transferred those skills into environments with increasing distractions…

When training, it’s so important to establish strong foundations in low-stimulation environments before building up gradually. This sets both dog and owner up for success and creates steady, lasting progress 🐾
