What is Hoopers?
I became an Accredited Canine Hoopers Instructor in 2019.
– Hoopers teaches you and your dog to navigate various equipment (similar to agility but lower impact) in set courses laid out:
– Hoops & Tunnels – Dogs run through these
– Barrels – Dogs go around these
– Touch n Go Mat – Dogs simply run over this
Hoopers can lay a fantastic foundation for puppies to move on to agility later in life too.
Hoopers is brilliant for building confidence, listening skills and building teamwork.

why work with me?
With years of experience specialising in gundogs, I address a wide range of behavioural issues, from nuisance barking and light chasing to resource guarding and reactivity. My approach goes beyond obedience; I focus on educating your dog, empowering them to make good choices and build confidence.
I prioritise understanding your dog’s emotional and energetic state during training, ensuring a strong bond and mutual trust. I also support owners, helping create a harmonious environment where both you and your dog can thrive.
