About..
What started out as bringing a new puppy home from a shelter, only to discover I had a very sensitive, reactive and unsocialised dog on my hands, with issues well beyond my expertise, led to discovering my absolute passion - helping dogs to lead happier and more fulfilling lives.
​
The first thing I learnt, was that us dog guardians require way more training than our dogs do. Once I understood more about dogs, their behaviour, their body language and how they learn, I found the relationship between myself and dogs improved exponentially, and that led to massive improvements in my own dogs behaviour (and my expectations).
​
When you understand your dog, you can build trust and a wonderful relationship with them. They are as individual as you or I, and have been terribly misunderstood by us humans for many years.
​
I only use positive reinforcement in my training and am currently studying towards my Delta Certificate to solidify my knowledge. I am fully insured and have current police checks.
​
Between working, studying, fostering, volunteering, classes and looking after my own fur-babies I am trying to get content onto this website, so please bear with me. If you have any questions you can call me on 0409 952 537 or email info@zendogs.com.au
​
I look forward to meeting you and your best friends. Thank you for reading and if you have any questions about my services please get in touch.
