Personalised Perfect Puppy Programmes
Get the foundations right from day one
Bringing a puppy home is exciting, but it can quickly feel overwhelming. The choices you make in those first few months shape your dog's adult behaviour, confidence, and lifelong relationship with you.
My puppy programmes are designed around your specific home setup, lifestyle, and your puppy's unique temperament. Drawing on my behavioral and psychological expertise, I help you understand the human-canine bond from the start, giving you the tools to prevent behavioural issues before they take hold.

Specialist Dog Walking |
Specialist Dog Walking |
Specialist Walk & Train (One Dog Maximum)
This is an active training and management service tailored explicitly to complex behaviours like lunging, reactivity, over-excitement, deep-rooted fearfulness, or any difficult anti-social behaviours—or dogs that just prefer a solo walk in peace with a trusted professional canine behaviourist and trainer.
Standard group dog walks are simply not designed for every dog. If your dog struggles with leash reactivity, severe pulling, or high anxiety, a crowded park or a multi-dog pack walk can quickly worsen their stress levels and push them over threshold.
My premium, one-on-one Walk & Train service provides a safe, highly focused alternative for dogs that require expert handling and a calm, structured environment. Every walk is conducted personally by me—utilising my dual background as a Level 4 certified canine behaviourist, balanced dog trainer, and a former psychotherapist to manage your dog's emotional regulation and ensure absolute safety on busy London streets.
What is included in my specialist walks?
Strictly One-on-One
Your dog receives my undivided attention. No pack-walks or mixing with reactive or boisterous dogs.
Behaviourist-Led Handling
I use my advanced training to read subtle body language, predict explosive reactions, and diffuse triggers before they escalate.
Obedience & Impulse Control
We don't just walk; we actively practice core obedience and impulse control activities—such as "leave it," boundary stays, and waiting for cues—to build essential "out-and-about" real-world manners.
Active Loose-Lead Training
Instead of just letting a heavy puller drag me along, I actively reinforce proper lead mechanics and focus our sessions on calm, stress-free walks.
Longline Recall Training
For dogs that cannot be safely let off-lead, I utilise long lines to build a reliable, responsive recall in real-world environments.
Psychological Security
We walk in your local area to ensure your dog is trained and desensitised to your environment where it matters the most. These transferable skills can then be taken with you wherever you go.
Reliable Boundaries
I bring honest communication, high-value rewards, and clear, calm structure and routine to every single outing.
I collect from your home/office
I collect and drop off your dog directly from your home or office, keeping the training in a local environment where your dog is already familiar.

Structured Group Walk (3 Dog Maximum)
My premium, structured Group Walk service provides a safe, managed walking environment for dogs to build positive social skills. Every walk is conducted personally by me—utilising my dual background as a Level 4 certified canine behaviourist, balanced dog trainer, and a former psychotherapist to ensure your dog learns calm emotional regulation and reliable manners around a small, balanced pack.
What is included in my group walks?
Carefully Vetted Groups
Your dog receives focused attention in a small, balanced pack. No mixing with highly reactive or uncontrolled boisterous dogs.
Behaviourist-Led Handling
I use my advanced training to read subtle body language, predict explosive reactions, and diffuse environmental triggers before they escalate.
Obedience & Impulse Control
We don't just walk; we actively practice core obedience and impulse control activities—such as "leave it," boundary stays, and waiting for cues—to build essential "out-and-about" real-world manners with dogs nearby.
Active Loose-Lead Training
Instead of just letting heavy pullers drag me along, I actively reinforce proper lead mechanics and focus our sessions on calm, stress-free walks.
Longline Recall Training
For dogs that cannot be safely let off-lead entirely, I utilise long lines to build a reliable, responsive recall safely within real-world group environments.
Psychological Security
We walk in your local area to ensure your dog is trained and desensitised to your environment where it matters the most. These transferable skills can then be taken with you wherever you go.
Reliable Boundaries
I bring honest communication, high-value rewards, and clear, calm structure and routine to every single outing.
I collect from your home/office

Why Choose South London Dog Training?
Level 4 Certified Behaviourist
I hold the PETbc Accredited Advanced Canine Behaviour Diploma, one of the highest and most respected professional qualifications available in canine behaviour within the UK.
Psychotherapy Background
I am one of the very few dog trainers in London who is also a qualified psychotherapist. This means I understand the human side of the human-dog relationship just as deeply as the canine side, allowing me to coach you with the same precision I use to train your dog.
The Power of a Balanced Approach
I don't use rigid, one-size-fits-all methods. My relationship-centred framework combines highly motivating positive rewards with clear, calm boundaries—providing the honest communication and structure that dogs genuinely need to thrive.
Registered Professional Dog Walker
Licensed by Lambeth Council for professional dog walking and care. This ensures my business is completely compliant, meeting all mandatory safety, licensing, and insurance standards while operating across South London parks.
Boutique and Personal
I work with a strictly limited number of clients at any one time. You are investing in personal, dedicated expertise, and your dog will never feel like just a number.
Completely Non-Judgmental
Whatever challenges have brought you here, there is zero blame and zero shame. As a former therapist, my job is to provide a calm, supportive space to help you move forward, not to judge your past.
Convenient Local Training
Conducted entirely in your home or Brockwell Park. I travel straight to your location to deep-dive into your dog's behavioural history, triggers, and communication profile in their everyday environment. If you live outside my catchment area but are keen to work with me in person, we can meet at Brockwell Park.
Dedicated Ongoing Support
The relationship doesn't end when the session does. I am always accessible for direct guidance, troubleshooting, and support between appointments.
Fully Insured
Fully insured with Protectivity for your complete peace of mind
