Public speaking
She has taught seminars across England and in Prague, as well as presenting webinars for Behavior Vets (USA), Canine Arthritis Management (CAM), The Association of Pet Behaviour Counsellors (APBC), Control The Meerkat (UK), Dingbatt Dog Training Academy (UK) & Ness Jone Separation Anxiety (Australia).
In 2024, Roz set the challenge to present two 2-day seminars in Essex and Bristol working with four live case studies with dog-dog over reactivity and aggression.
The seminars were of a unique format, covering the background work that went into each case before doing live dog-dog sessions that resulted in the dogs all getting to interact or be up-close to her helper dogs, in front of a live audience.
Roz is available to present on a broad range of topics, please use the contact form to discuss booking Roz for online or in person presentations.
Education for veterinary professionals
In 2023, Roz, Emily and Mohawk (Roz’s Border Collie) attended multiple veterinary practices across Bristol to provide education and demonstration on stress-reducing practice.
Roz also facilitated an online webinar for veterinary professionals to discuss how they can help the rising number of dogs who are struggling in a veterinary environment.
