Supporting Dogs In Rescue
Working With The National Greyhound Trust
In 2024, The National Greyhound Trust contacted me to discuss the possibility of working alongside them to support retired greyhounds seeking loving homes. Without hesitation, I accepted, and now you can find me twice a week at the Greyhound Trust’s National Greyhound Centre, where I hold the position of resident behaviorist
Meet Lorraine
As a certified dog behaviourist, I have completed formal education and training to provide the best possible care for your dog. I am dedicated to using only positive reinforcement techniques to ensure your dog is happy and healthy with all dog behavior training
Tailored Training Programs
Every dog has their own story to tell and we believe that each dog we support has the potential to learn and grow. To help them achieve their full potential we provide personalised dog behaviour programs that focus on your dog's strengths and weaknesses - rescue dog training - dog behavior training - puppy training 1-2-1
The Methods We Use to Solve Behaviour Problems
We will work closely with you and your dog to address the root cause of the problem and develop a plan to overcome it. When working with your dog, only kind and ethical methods and techniques will be used. Positive reinforcement allows you to teach your dog what you want them to do, rather than what you don't want them to do.
We Offer Both IN-House and Remote Support.
Lorraine provides in-house support to clients who are located near Gatwick. However, remote support is also available to those who are not in the area. This ensures that everyone receives the same level of exceptional support for their dog. Remote support is especially useful for dogs who are anxious around strangers entering their homes or for super busy guardians who stuggle to commit to set class times.
Many people prefer remote support, it is more flexible, not weather dependent and can fit in around busy schedules.
