I’m a professional dog trainer located in Basingstoke Hampshire. I gained my qualifications from Will Atherton Canine Academy. 

 

My primary goal is to establish a positive and well-balanced relationship between dog owners and their pets. I put emphasis on educating owners to gain a better understanding of their dog's behaviour and mentality, which will help them coexist harmoniously. The term "animus" is a Latin word that can be translated as soul, mind, heart, purpose, or feeling. I chose this expression to remind myself of why I started this mission. My mission is to teach dog owners about how their pet's mind works and the reason behind their behaviour. We often assume that dogs think and feel the same way we do, but their thinking process is much simpler than ours, and we often complicate it with our human feelings. 

​

Once we work together and tackle the most significant challenges with your dog, you will be able to handle any situation with confidence. I have helped dogs with issues such as reactivity, anxiety, pulling, aggression, resource guarding, etc.
