A Little About Me
(Lottie Hanks)

“Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.”

If you’re anything like me, life with a relaxed and happy dog curled up nearby feels complete. That is my goal for you. I will strive to show you how to raise a canine that truly becomes a family member - to enrich the relationship between you and your dog by showing you how to easily and effectively train them.

There’s A Method To My Madness

Providing effective and ethical dog training whilst teaching you how to understand and communicate with your dog will underpin everything that I’ll show you.

I don’t make this stuff up! I strive to continually expand my knowledge about how dogs learn and bring the most up to date training techniques to my sessions, by training myself with leading experts in the field of canine behaviour. I am accredited and assessed as a registered Animal Training Instructor with the Animal Behaviour & Training Council, so you can be sure you’re in safe hands. 

You are guaranteed to enjoy training and have a lot of fun too. With some expert guidance and practical training techniques, I can help you get back on track so the very best days in your relationship lay ahead of you.

The Whys and the Wherefores

Adventure Paws Training was borne out of the madness of a small Working Cocker Spaniel who bulldozed his way into my life and stole my heart. Just what every puppy should do!

This little puppy didn’t follow the manual though, and I had no idea where to turn to help this complex dog who challenged me daily. He is the reason I’m the trainer I am today. I have truly been there and got the t-shirt, from the wonderful and exciting beginnings of puppy hood, through a life full of challenges and adventures, to the moment a best friend crosses over the rainbow bridge. My heart dog is the reason I’ll bring passion and integrity to every moment I train with you and your dog.
