About me

Hi, I'm Nick, the Dog Life Coach. I'm a certified and insured dog training geek and behaviour fanatic with a level 2 qualification in the Syn Alia Training System, specialising in cooperative care and conflict free, choice based training.

I provide 1 to 1 training and behaviour consultations in the comfort of your own home. My mission is to help dog owners build a stronger and more fulfilling relationship with their furry companions. Whether you're dealing with a disobedient puppy, an anxious rescue dog, or any other behavioural issue, I am here to help. With years of experience working with dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments, I have the education, skills and knowledge to tailor a training program that meets your unique needs and goals.

During our sessions, I use reward based techniques to encourage good behaviour and discourage bad habits. From basic obedience training to advanced tricks and agility, I can help your dog develop the skills they need to be a well-behaved and happy member of your family. If you're struggling with a specific behavioural issue, such as aggression or separation anxiety, I can provide in-depth consultations to identify the root cause of the problem and develop a personalised plan to address it.

So if you're ready to take the first step towards a happier, healthier relationship with your furry friend, get in touch with me today to schedule your first consultation. Let's work together to create a happier, more harmonious life for you and your beloved dog !

I am often asked "what are you methods ?" or "what is your approach ?"
My answer is always the same: "whatever method/approach is going to give you and your dog the greatest chance of success".

The best training method is the one you (as the owner) will actually do. Helping your dog life their best life should be fun for you, the owner as well as your dog.

I take a holistic view that considers underlying health issues, biological fulfilment, relationship, lifestyle, diet, genetics and other factors that influence dog behaviour.

Happy clients

Nick first met my doggies (Shih Tzus) when we were having problems with their behaviour, exactly 12 months ago. They took to him straight away and he worked miracles with them! Nick has such a calming influence on them. Watching him work leaves me in awe, he's just so damn good at what he does!

Dogs, people, tumbleweeds, you name it. Marshall literally screams at everything, up on his hind legs. After just 2 sessions, one at home and one at Pennington Flash (where there's lots for him to freak at) Marshall is already like a different dog! Honestly, if you need a patient trainer that uses only positive methods, Nick is your man!

Ten out of ten!
I have a very excited XL bully and nick pushed all the buttons for her to calm, and show more awareness to the lead and self control and teaching not just the dog but me as well with what to do etc.
First session smashed it !
Plenty more to come, onwards and upwards for a better Neo !

Fantastic, friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Would highly recommend.

Looks after and helps train our dog weekly. Brilliant and our dog absolutely loves Nick and is so excited to see him!

Freda is already learning how to relax and be a more confident dog after just one session. I’m sure we will be able to get a non reactive dog soon.

Having spent 1000's on three other trainers we finally found Nick. Nick made more progress in the first hour of our initial consultation than any of the other trainers we've had. We can't thank you enough Nick.
