SUPPORT FOR BOTH ENDS OF THE LEAD
Kind, practical training that builds your confidence and helps your dog thrive—creating lasting change for both of you.
Do you want to truly understand your dog and finally feel like you’re working with them—not constantly firefighting their energy or behaviour?
Welcome, I’m Laura — a positive reinforcement based dog trainer & UK Sniffer Dog Instructor in Lincolnshire who cares as much about supporting you as I do about the dog you share your life with.
If your dog struggles to switch off, pulls like a train, or gets overwhelmed or over-excited easily, you’re not alone!
I’m here to help you understand what’s going on beneath the surface—and guide you towards calmer, easier days with your dog.
I use kind, effective, real-life training focused on connection, enrichment, and setting you both up for success. No judgement, no over-whelm, just support that works in real life.
✨ Do you want to have the kind of dog that actually listen on walks (even around distractions)?
✨ Curious how you can meet their needs without spending hours every day training or walking?
✨ Do you want guidance from someone that’s friendly, flexible, & genuinely understands life with a high-energy dog?
All those tricky behaviours start to make more sense when you truly understand your dog’s needs—especially when they’re bursting with energy or struggling with confidence.
No one-size-fits-all when it comes to dog training. Every dog is different, and so is every dog's home.
My training support is designed to help you build a calmer, more connected relationship with your dog—whether they’re a bouncy Labrador, a sensitive soul, or simply finding the world a bit overwhelming right now.
With the right approach, things like recall, settling at home, and even enjoyable walks start to fall into place - because when you communicate in a way your dog understands, training & life in general becomes a million times easier.

“Working with Laura has been an absolute game-changer for me and, Billy. I've been struggling with Billy's over-excited behaviour on walks & around other dogs. It was a constant source of stress and ruined my enjoyment of our walks. Laura has been patient and supportive and we've made great progress !"
"Barney has always been incredibly nervous around new people, Laura's been helping build his confidence as i've recently got a new job and needed a dog walker 3 times a week and he was so scared she was unable to even get his collar on. He's made lots of progress and is now managing solo walks with our walker"
"Zoe used to have brilliant recall until she was about 10 months and since then we've struggled her recall, especially around birds and other dogs, and even when she did come back, she wouldn't let us get close enough to get her lead on! We can now let her off the lead in most situations although we use a longline in certain areas and really pleased with her progress"
I’ve shared life with some wonderfully wired dogs—from a rescue boxer who’d never left a Glasgow flat in his first 18 months, to a Hungarian Vizsla who didn’t come with an "off switch".
She was the reason I left my corporate job in veterinary pharmaceuticals to become a dog walker. I needed to build a life that worked for her. It wasn’t easy—she struggled with separation anxiety, noise sensitivity and couldn’t settle, and for years I felt like I was failing her. But in helping her, I found what I was meant to do.
That's why I help other owners of high-energy, high-emotion dogs—like spaniels, labradors and poodle crosses teach their dog to use their nose so they can enjoy a calmer, more connected life at home and on walks.
Uncover what truly drives your dog—and learn how to support those needs in a way that transforms everyday life.
The Canine Brain Box Academy is more than just training. It’s a fresh, holistic approach that looks at your dog’s behavioural, emotional, physical, mental, and cognitive wellbeing.
With expert guidance from me and a carefully chosen line-up of guest specialists, you’ll gain the tools and insight to confidently support your dog—so you can build the calm, connected partnership you’ve always wanted.
