Based between Calne and Devizes, The Puppy Adviser offers training, support and advice

for dogs of all ages & breeds and their humans through

tailored individual training sessions, packages & consultations

alongside group classes & workshops held regularly throughout the year.

​

The Puppy Adviser also specialises in scent work and offers

workshops or individual sessions and fun trials.

My name is Julia and I am a qualified dog trainer, 

educated and assessed by The Institute of Modern Dog Trainers

and externally verified by the Open College Network.

I am proud to display the UK Dog Behaviour & Training Charter symbol which shows that

I am checked, monitored & supported by the leading trainer organisation

and I abide by the ethical, welfare & conduct obligations.

I am an invited member of The Pet Professional Guild.

Passionate about scent work, I am also a qualified

Scent Work Bronze Instructor with UK Sniffer Dogs.

​

I will equip you with the skills, knowledge and understanding to build and enjoy

a rewarding and fulfilling bond with your puppy, adolescent, rescue or older dog

that will last a lifetime.

I not only teach all key behaviours, I also develop life skills - helping your dog

to have optimism, resilience, independence, impulse control,

make the right choices and have effective coping strategies.

​

All my training, support and advice embraces modern, positive force free methods

and uses reward-based techniques.

These have been scientifically proven to give long lasting results without causing

intimidation, fear or pain or using any aversive devices.

It is often referred to as positive reinforcement but put simply,

it’s giving something a dog loves in exchange for the behaviours we desire.

​

I will show you the best way to teach your dog so he / she is super keen to learn and get it right.

My training approach emphasises kindness, calmness and fun.

Science tells us that you learn so much better when you're having fun!
