HELLO, I’M HELEN

I’m a professional dog trainer and the founder of Fairy Tails Dog Training.  Thank you for visiting my website.

I’m passionate about supporting you and your dog through your own individual journey so you can achieve the relationship and the results you want.

I can help guide new puppy parents with clear advice, support and coaching designed to nurture a healthy, happy and well-behaved dog you will be proud of.

If you have a dog struggling to interact with other dogs appropriately or who struggles with separation anxiety, I can help with progressive and supportive programs to help change both your lives. 

I am also a fully qualified Kids Around Dogs trainer, helping frightened children to feel safe around dogs as well as coaching families with kids and dogs to have a healthy and respectful relationship.

I am a fully accredited Dynamic Dog Practitioner which means I am trained to carry out in-depth functional assessments on dogs to highlight areas of potential discomfort. This discomfort could be the cause or a contributing factor to behavioural issues. I offer this service to behavioural clients and also as a collaboration with other dog professionals who may need additional insights into a behavioural case they are working on.
