I am a qualified and experienced trainer and clinical behaviourist. I have a Biology degree from Cardiff University and a Master’s degree in ethology (animal behaviour). I am currently studying for a level six (postgraduate) diploma specifically in canine behaviour.
I have experience with working one-on-one to help more than two thousand dogs, to date, across the full breadth of training needs and behavioural challenges.

We were almost at the point of considering rehoming one of our dogs before we contacted Steven, but now we are confident that we can manage the problems we had & I feel that the bond between me & my dog is stronger than ever.
