Dog Behaviourist & Trainer (BsC). @annietrainsdogs

Pet care experience

Hi there, my names Annie. I love animals – especially dogs. From a young age I have been fascinated with the ways wolves and dogs communicate both to us and one another. I qualified as a dog trainer some years ago and went on to complete a 4 year Bachelor of Science Degree in Animal Behaviour at Exeter University. I am fully qualified as a Pet First Aid Instructor also. To me, there is nothing more rewarding than working with animals. I’m a graduate of Exeter University in Animal Behaviour where I studied for four years, including one years study in South Carolina. I’ve developed a highly scientific approach to animal behaviour coupled with continued work experience and courses with The UK Dog Whisperer. In the absence of language it was clear to see these animals had alternative, more primitive but by no means less sophisticated ways of communicating. This interest followed me into my teenage years where I started working with my own dogs and then friends and families, correcting problem behaviours at any opportunity. From here I decided I wanted a greater understanding of exactly how and why dogs were behaving in these ways, which led me to study their behaviour professionally to help owners and dogs alike.

Annie was brilliant, and went that extra mile to make sure I was a happy owner. Annie came to visit me at my home before looking after Luna as a house sitting in order to make sure I and Puppy were happy. I would highly recommend Annie, she not only look after my girl but kept me up to date the whole time.... WITH OUT A DOUBT A 5 STAR ***** EXPERIANCE FROM A PROFESSIONAL DOG BEHAVIOURIST...….. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Annie-Mae is a true dog 'whisperer' has been such a delight to know and experience the work she does with dogs. She has trained and looked after my dogs since she was quite young and helped us compete in both agility and obedience. That being said, her special talent is with misunderstood dogs. She has a natural ability to tune in to their needs and quickly gain their trust. This combined with 5 years training and studying Animal Behaviour makes her the most trusted person to be around all types of dogs - large and small.
