Dog Scout provides professional, force-free dog training and mantrailing in Winchester, Alresford, Petersfield, Alton, Bramdean, Ropley and all surrounding areas. I am IMDT qualified and specialise in supporting adolescent dogs, reactive dogs, and rescue dogs, using positive, evidence-based methods to create lasting behaviour change without intimidation or harsh handling. I also offer mantrailing (scentwork), a hugely rewarding activity that builds confidence, focus and teamwork for both dogs and owners.
I believe training should be supportive and enjoyable, and that you and your dog should be having fun together (isn't that why you got a dog in the first place?); with the right approach, that’s not only possible, it’s completely achievable.

Member of the force free dog training initiative and force free accredited (level 3 and level 4) dog behaviourist and trainer. I am also accredited in delivering emergency first aid canine care. One-to-one in person sessions are preferable although I do consider remote sessions. I specialise in working with rescue dogs who have a wide array of behavioural problems from barrier reactivity to separation anxiety but offer other services such as puppy fear period training and improving manners whilst on lead.
