Hey Hey Hey Bookshelvers!

So here it is episode #1 of our 'Off The Shelf' series.

This one we have entitled " Bear, Horse, Wolf" and it features Carrie-Anne Selwyn, Corrin Goodall (and Steve) with our very own Natalie Light talking about their personal journeys rehoming thier dogs Dodge, Drax and Peaches (who all happen to be pretty darn HUGE).

We talk about how we ended up making the decision to rehome, how we approach the (massively underrated) management that is essential for building trust and preventing problems as well as what we have all learned from these experiences.

We are all great friends so expect some banter and giggles along the way.

I am an Association for the Study of Animal Behaviour (ASAB) accredited Certificated Clinical Animal Behaviourist, an Animal Behaviour & Training Council (ABTC) Registered Clinical Animal Behaviourist and Animal Training Instructor and a full member of both the Association of Pet Behaviour Counsellors and Fellowship of Animal Behaviour Clinicians. I have been working professionally in the companion animal sector since 2006 and have graduated from Southampton University with a Zoology BSc (2:1) and Newcastle University in Applied Animal Behaviour & Welfare PGDip (Distinction).

My aim as a behaviourist and trainer is to provide my clients with the understanding, knowledge and practical skills to confidently identify, manage and reinforce behaviours in order to have a safe and happy life with their dog.

I believe that by focussing on the dog/human relationship and encouraging effective and appropriate communication, we can live with our dogs more successfully.
