Abigail
Abigail is passionate about helping dog owners and their pets reach their full potential together. She firmly believes that every dog deserves a chance to shine, regardless of their past or current behaviour.
Abigail has successfully assisted many dog owners in overcoming behavioural issues by identifying root causes and developing unique, tailored solutions for both dogs and their owners. She has extensive experience in dog agility, having competed with her own dogs up to the championship level. Additionally, she holds a qualification to judge at any agility show.
Abigail’s dedication is evident in her work with her two rescue dogs, who initially exhibited extreme reactivity issues towards both dogs and humans. Through her efforts, they have become confident and reliable agility dogs in all environments. Currently, Abigail is working towards a diploma in advanced canine behaviour with the British College of Canine Studies.
