Welcome to Team Tilly Canine Coaching, I am Amanda and this is Tilly.

Do you feel alone with your dog’s behaviour? I know I have in the past. I offer bespoke one to one sessions designed around you and your dog’s needs. Each of us and our dogs are individuals. I use kind and ethical positive methods to help you train your dog. I believe in looking at the whole picture if you are struggling with your dog’s behaviour. I want to support you in getting the best relationship with your dog.

My current dogs both started life in Romania and found their way through local rescue into my life back in 2016. My older dog Caleb has really blossomed engaging in games based concept training, he is very sensitive and was quite withdrawn when we adopted him. Applying concepts such as confidence and optimism and making life fun really helped him find his way out of his shell, he is also testament that age is no obstacle to learning. Tilly was incredibly worried about life in general, people and other dogs terrified her, she has built a lot of resilience through games based training. Feeling safe is the first step to being able to build relationships and then start learning, Tilly has made me dig deep and reconsider what and why we train certain behaviours.

In 2018 I became an absoluteDOGS Pro Dog Trainer and then studied their Geek course which looks at dog behaviour and how to apply the games based concepts. In 2021 I completed the British College of Canine Studies Level 4 Advanced Canine Behaviour Diploma with a merit. I have recently completed the Romanian Rescue Pro Trainers Course. I am a Profession Member of the Pet Professionals Network.
