Built on modern science and kindness, we use positive reinforcement techniques proven to get results through communication, trust and understanding.
Active Dog Behaviour was founded by Katie, who holds a BSc (Hons) in Animal Science, Behaviour and Welfare and is an IMDT-qualified trainer. Active Dog Behaviour brings together science-based, force-free methods, supported by a strong background in canine rehabilitation and hydrotherapy.
