Hi, I'm Laurie! Thanks so much for visiting my page!
 

I knew from an early age I wanted to make animals part of my future career and that’s exactly what I did. I completed a Veterinary Nursing Diploma and became a Registered Veterinary Nurse in 2017 and never looked back. Veterinary nursing is a huge part of my life and I'm currently working part time at a small animal hospital.

In 2020, I welcomed a very special Hungarian Vizsla into my life called Rudi who turned my life upside down, he came with a multitude of behavioural issues, unknowingly it ignited a passion I never knew I had, dog training and behaviour, I owe it all to him. I'm able to relate to the struggles of dog ownership and offer true compassion to all my clients.
 

Year after year I became more and more passionate about dog training, so I opened up my world to more studies, I became an ADTB (Academy of Dog Training and Behaviour) approved instructor in 2022, completed a Feline behaviour certificate with Compass Education in 2023 (cats are incredibly fascinating too). With welfare being a top priority, I decided ethical dog training was my calling and completed the IMDT (Institute of modern Dog Trainers) Level 3 certificate in Learning, Motivation and Reinforcement and became a fully certified IMDT dog trainer after completing an assessment in 2023.

I then went on to join an incredible group of woman at a training based day care one day a week to get more hands on experience with dogs outside the veterinary environment, changing the standards of day care, looking after your dogs with their welfare as top priority. 
 

It certainly doesn't stop there, I'm enrolled on an additional IMDT course designed all things puppy and hope to become a recognised IMDT puppy training instructor by the end of the year. 

I really hope I'm what your looking for and look forward to hearing from you.
