My professional life with dogs started over 15 years ago. And in that time I have handled, trained, cared for and photographed hundreds of dogs across a broad spectrum of breeds and backgrounds. At 18 I worked for a rehoming charity, assisting in behaviour assessments, socialisation and walking. Throughout this time I bred and handled King Charles Cavaliers in the show ring and completed my Open University studies in studying mammals. I went on to study and qualify in english and creative writing with the Open University! This is where my journalism comes in! I enrolled at Harper Adams University in 2008 and studied Animal Behaviour and Welfare; completing 3 years of full time study I acheived my level 5 diploma in Higher Education. I have since studied canine psychology, nutrition, welfare and behaviour as well as applied animal behaviour across a range of domestic animals. I am a fully assessed Canine Reactivity Expert and Canine Nutrition and Wellbeing expert. Whilst studying animal behaviour at university I ran my own pet care business and when qualified progressed to running puppy and adult dog training classes.
I then took a short break to have my own babies and whilst on maternity leave studied and qualified as a Master Photographer, becoming the only UK qualified Master Photographer to hold qualifications in animal behaviour and welfare.
I have since written articles for national magazine K9 News and am lucky enough to be invited to cover Crufts from the press office each year.
