About Engaged...
Sharing the magic of dogs and helping them thrive!
Engaged Canine Services is more than just my business, it is my passion project. I just adore working with dogs and to me there is nothing greater than the bond that can be formed between dog and owner. I understand that this relationship, as magical as it can be when it is going well, can sometimes face some bumps in the road, and this is where I want to help. My aims through Engaged Canine Services are to develop the owner-dog bond to achieve its potential, ensuring that all involved are living the happiest and most fulfilled lives possible.
My Background
It is vital when selecting someone to train or care for your dogs that you get to know them first, to ensure that you are getting an experienced, knowledgeable and passionate individual! With over 10 years of industry experience and 4 years of service as an operational detection dog handler, I am committed to delivering top-quality care and training for your dogs. I am passionate about building strong relationships with dogs and their owners, and can't wait to share my expertise with you.
I have worked with dogs in a range of different capacities including:
Boarding, Rescue and Working Dog Kennels
Doggy Day Care Settings
Veterinary Practices (both first opinion and referral)
Operational Detection Dog Handling (and assisting with training here)
Volunteering with Therapy Dogs Nationwide
Whilst gaining all of this practical experience I have also been able to develop my education and gain a variety of qualifications including:
BSc BioVeterinary Science (at Royal Veterinary College)
NASDU Qualified Live Body Detection Dog Handler
Qualified Canine First Aid Instructor
Level 3 Emergency First Aid at Work (Human)
Level 3 Diploma in Kennel and Cattery Management
Level 2 Diplomas in Canine Communication and Canine Behaviour and Training
When working with dogs (and people), I believe that you can never stop learning and I have such a passion for dog training that I continue to study independently, both theoretically and through collaborating with other like minded individuals and industry experts, so you know that you are in safe hands with Engaged Canine Services!
