About Rebecca W.
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
As an accredited positive reinforcement trainer, I will always treat your dog with respect and gentleness. Dogs do not need a firm hand, nor is being a pack leader up to date theory. Dogs deserve understanding and effective science backed training techniques, no matter the size or breed. I will always ensure their equipment is safe and checked before a walk. Trackers are very welcome!
Information Rebecca W. would like to know about your pet
I need to know of any dietary restrictions, behavioural issues, pain/illness’s, if they can go off lead, prey drive, general personalities to match them in a suitable groupl
A typical day
We go to trail walks to encouraging sniffing and work on regulation around other dogs. I use brain games so the dogs come home mentally tired and calm.

Pet care experience
1hr Lunchtime walks (Tuesday, Thursday, Fridays) Musselburgh, Joppa, portobello, Craigmillar, craigtinny, newcraighall, Duddingston etc. 2.5 hour group walk Mondays: Roslin/Loanhead/Bonnyrigg/Rosewell/oxgangs/ mortonhall/ morningside/ Fairmilehead Solo walk & Train in all above areas and central Edinburgh and Leith About me: I’m an accredited dog trainer with my business Bonnie Animal Training which has been running since summer 2025. Previously, I was a senior trainer/coach with the Dogs Trust running training classes with Dog School for 4 years. Prior to my work with dogs, I was a Zookeeper for 12 years. My passion has always been in animal welfare and behaviour. Ethics and welfare are my highest priority for animals in my care. I am committed to using safe and comfortable equipment, building a bond with your dog, and having a positive relationship. I have a deep understanding of dog body language. I know what issues to look out for during socialising together and or with other dogs on our walks. I also ensure dogs have breed fulfilment and mental stimulation as well as exercise. My walks will have a maximum of 4 dogs. (One of which will always be mine) The dogs travel in my car, either on the back seats with seatbelts or in the boot separated by safe secure dividers. They won’t have to travel in a van with lots of other noisy dogs. I do some training on the walks such as focus, calmness, lead walking skills, recall, polite greetings, emotional regulation. Providing the dogs a sniffy walk so they use their brains and energy wisely I am fully insured through my business. I am registered as a dog walker with Edinburgh council Undergoing dog First Aid training. I look forward to hearing from you!
