Testimonial Slider
"Kirsty led a series of six sessions for adolescents post lock down. Really impressed with Kirsty's patience, ability to understand dog behaviour and the sessions were tailored to the areas identified as needing work. The price of the course was very reasonable. Fully recommend Kirsty for any dog training needs!"
- Rich Osb
"Kirsty is incredibly professional in what she does and so trustworthy - we feel lucky to have found her. Leo's behaviour has come on leaps and bounds since we started training and we'd highly recommend Kirsty to any dog owner"
- Nicky & Leo
"We have done 3 sessions with Kirsty so far and Poppy's focus has improved massively - as well as her recall, which we were really struggling with. I would wholeheartedly recommend working with Kirsty, she's the best puppy trainer we've ever worked with and your puppy is in seriously experienced hands"
- Leanne & Poppy
"Kirsty has been a lifesaver with Ziggy, our 5 month old Terrier cross. We had attended some other puppy classes but shortly after, Ziggy started lunging and barking at other dogs so we contacted Kirsty for help. Ziggy no longer lunges and we're so pleased!"
- Marcus & Ziggy
"Kirsty's training and professionalism were outstanding. My dog was often very anxious and timid, and Kirsty's confidence course really improved my dog's behaviour and she seems so much happier! Both my dog and I had a great time working with Kirsty, the dog games are great fun. Thank you Kirsty for your brilliant advice and training - I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog trainer either online or in person."
- Léann & Siog

Kirsty

I’m Kirsty, a passionate dog trainer who believes in the power of kindness and understanding when it comes to training our furry friends. I know first-hand how challenging it can be to train a dog in an urban environment, especially when living in a smaller space like an apartment.

My Maltese, Dylan, is a cheeky little guy who’s definitely kept me on my toes, and training him in the heart of the city has taught me so much about patience, creativity, and using kind, force free methods to bring out the best in dogs.

I’m proud to be a Trainer through The School of Canine Science & AbsoluteDogs and have the privilege to work all over the world with some of the naughtiest small dogs who are struggling to live in the city.

I proudly serve Manchester, Salford and surrounding areas with my expert dog training advice.
