  • You feel embarrassed or frustrated by your dog’s behaviour

  • You want kind, effective training without punishment-based methods

  • You want to give your dog meaningful mental enrichment

  • You want support from someone who understands both dogs and owners

​

At Wild & Kind K9, training is built around welfare, trust and practical skills that help dogs succeed in everyday life.

Hi, I'm Izzy

 I have a passion for dogs like no other and believe in responsible ownership and training to create awesome companions (much like my very own companion, Ivy, a black Labrador).

​

  • First Class BSc Animal Behaviour & Welfare

  • Operational conservation detection dog experience

  • Rescue experience

  • Experience with many breeds, tempraments, sizes and issues

  • Force-free trainer

  • Fully insured, DBS checked, and canine and human first aid trained

​

​I strongly advocate for force-free training as I believe all relationships with dogs should be built on trust and respect. I also believe in training the owner and not just the dog.

​

I have trained operational detection dogs so have a good idea of what goes into making a well-mannered dog but also have a good understanding of working dog breeds and how to use their drive and energy for your benefit in training.

​

Great fun, and very useful advice about how to engage your dog through play.

Helen & Tiger
