Does your dog’s behaviour sometimes feel like a puzzle you just can’t solve?

Maybe you’ve tried dog training before, but the problems keep coming back.

Or perhaps your once-lovable pup has suddenly started growling, refusing walks, or acting anxious.

It’s frustrating, isn’t it? You’re doing your best, but nothing seems to work—and it’s starting to take a toll. You feel embarrassed or worried that things will never get better.

Here’s the good news: It doesn’t have to be this way.

Based in Plymouth and online, I specialise in helping dog owners just like you. My holistic approach looks beyond behaviour to uncover the root causes—whether it’s hidden discomfort, environmental stress, or a need you haven’t been able to put your finger on yet. Together, we’ll create a plan tailored to your dog’s unique personality and your lifestyle.

My training & behaviour services are perfect for dog owners who:

1. Struggle with Persistent Behavioural Issues

  • Is your dog reactive, anxious, or showing sudden aggression?

  • Have you tried other training methods without lasting success?

If you're looking for a fresh approach that uncovers the root causes of these behaviours, I can help.

2. Suspect a Link Between Health and Behaviour

  • Has your dog’s behaviour changed unexpectedly?

  • Are they avoiding activities they used to love, like jumping, playing, or going for walks?

Behaviour changes often stem from hidden physical discomfort, and I specialise in identifying and addressing these connections.

3. Value a Comprehensive, Practical Solution

  • Are you a busy professional who needs clear, manageable strategies?

  • Do you want a plan tailored to your dog’s unique needs and your lifestyle?

I provide personalised, realistic solutions that fit into your daily routine.

4. Care About Long-Term Wellness

  • Do you want to ensure your dog stays happy and healthy as they age?

  • Are you looking for proactive care that supports your dog’s physical and emotional well-being?

From young pups to senior dogs, I help dogs thrive at every stage of life.

Ready to Help Your Dog Thrive?

If any of this sounds like you, I’d love to support you and your dog on your journey to better behaviour and wellness.

Why My Approach Works

Most training programs focus only on surface behaviours. I take a different route. My Comprehensive Behaviour Programme combines:

💡 Behaviour Analysis: Understand what’s driving your dog’s actions.
💡 Physical Wellness Checks: Spot hidden pain or discomfort that could be influencing behavior.
💡 Tailored, Practical Plans: Simple steps you can fit into your busy life.

You’ll Feel:

Relief knowing your dog’s behaviour is improving.
Empowered with tools that actually work.
Connected to your dog like never before.
Hopeful about your future together.

Tracey is approachable, knowledgeable and helpful. She makes things easy to understand.

Hi, I’m Tracey, your Plymouth-based dog trainer and behaviour practitioner

As a certified dog trainer with an interest in behaviour and I am passionate about helping dogs and their owners live harmoniously together. With a background in canine fitness, behaviour modification, and even therapeutic massage, I bring a holistic approach to training.

My philosophy is simple: to support dogs in being the best they can be without the need for forceful methods. I specialise in understanding each dog’s unique needs, taking into account their physical and mental well-being, so we can build strong foundations for happier, stress-free living.

I primarily work with busy, empathetic dog guardians who want practical, manageable solutions to their dog’s behavioural challenges. By focusing on your dog’s natural abilities and considering both their environment and lifestyle, I offer an in-depth, personalised approach. Whether it’s refining loose-lead walking skills, addressing reactivity, or strengthening your bond, my aim is to bring more enjoyment to your daily lives together.

When I’m not working hands-on with clients, I create resources and programs to make training more accessible, including my recent “Walks Without Worries” challenge and an in-depth, online behavior and wellness program ‘Canine Pathways’. Each of these initiatives is designed to support you in achieving lasting results—without stress, frustration, or outdated methods.
