Tired of Feeling Helpless with Your Dog’s Behaviour?

Struggling to Find the Right Support for Your Dog’s Behavioural Issues?

Many dog owners feel overwhelmed after trying multiple training methods or advice that doesn’t seem to work. Whether it’s constant barking, pulling on walks, or fear-based reactions, it can be frustrating when you feel like you’ve hit a dead end.

You don’t have to face this alone. At Jennie’s Positive Paws, I offer personalised, behaviour-focused solutions that address the root causes of your dog’s behaviour, not just the symptoms. Together, we’ll find the calm, positive approach that works for both you and your dog, so you can finally feel confident in your training journey.

Tailored, Compassionate Support That Transforms Lives

Jennie’s Positive Paws isn’t just another training programme – it’s a partnership. I take the time to understand your dog’s unique challenges and work with you every step of the way. My approach is based on positive reinforcement, clear communication, and real, lasting results. You’ll not only see a calmer, more confident dog, but you’ll also feel empowered as an owner, ready to tackle any challenge with confidence and clarity.

It’s time to break free from the frustration and uncertainty. Together, we’ll build the calm, connection, and trust you and your dog deserve.

Really lovely girl who knew her stuff. Managed to get my very difficult puppy walking on a lead on first attempt. Definitely recommend​

Tiff from Stow Maries

Testimonial

Jennie helped us with our rescue Border Collie, offering great advice that our dog responded well to. After a walk, our dog’s lead walking improved, and she followed up with a helpful email. Highly recommend!”
