Unleash Your Dog's Potential. Remote Support Available.
Specialising In Foreign and UK Rescue Dogs
Welcome to The Dog Within
Compassionate behaviour support for fearful, anxious, and misunderstood dogs.
At The Dog Within, we help dogs who struggle with fear, stress, and anxiety-related behaviours. Whether your dog is a rescue adjusting to a new world or a companion who's suddenly changed, we are here to guide both of you with calm, professional support.
Through 1-2-1 sessions in your home or online, we use up-to-date, science-based behaviour modification techniques that prioritise kindness, understanding, and long-term change.
Helping You Understand Your Dog - And Support Their Growth
When your dog is struggling, it’s easy to feel lost. My role is to help you make sense of their behaviour, find out what’s driving it, and give you the tools to create meaningful, lasting change. Together, we’ll build your dog’s confidence and bring out the best version of who they truly are.
My Approach
Every dog has their own story to tell, and I believe that each dog I support has the potential to learn and grow.
- Individualised support: Every dog is different, so I tailor each plan to suit your dog’s needs, history, and personality.
- Fear-free, ethical methods: I use the latest behaviour science and positive, fear-free techniques to reduce stress and promote learning.
- Support for you, too: You won’t be left to figure things out alone. I’ll be with you step by step, answering questions, offering guidance, and cheering on your progress.
- Remote or in-home sessions: I work 1-2-1, either in your home or online — wherever your dog feels safest and most relaxed.
You Are Not Alone
Many of my clients are everyday dog owners who simply want to do right by their dogs but don’t know where to start. I’m here to meet you where you are, without judgment, and walk alongside you every step of the way.
To help your dog achieve their full potential, we provide personalised dog behaviour programs that focus on your dog's strengths and weaknesses.

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.
