From suits to snouts, my true passion unleashed

My Journey


After nearly two decades in the corporate world, I shifted gears to pursue my passion for dogs. It all started with adopting my current fur baby, Patrick, igniting a deep desire to understand canine behaviour and training. Through intensive study and hands-on experience, I completed courses in dog behaviour and puppy fundamentals, refining my skills and knowledge in canine psychology and training techniques.


After a lifetime of dog companionship and six years of informal dog walking, caring and boarding, I officially founded Dashing Hounds Doggy Services in April 2024.


My focus is on meeting each dog's unique needs and their owners' specific goals through personalised care and training. I prioritise continuous learning and professional development, particularly in areas like separation anxiety and rehoming. By staying abreast of the latest research and techniques, I ensure the highest quality of care and training for your beloved pets.


If you have any questions or need additional care for your pet get in touch. I'm here to help. After all, there's nothing I love discussing more than dogs!
