About Me

Where it began

My journey with dogs began in the Army, where I served for 13 years. During this time, I developed a deep understanding and appreciation for canine behaviour and training. My experience includes training search dogs, a role that sharpened my skills and fueled my passion for working with dogs.

After my military career, I continued to train search dogs and assist owners with their dogs. This dual role allowed me to see the immense need for professional, compassionate dog training in everyday life.

Driven by this realisation, I founded Dogaholics—a space where I could dedicate myself fully to helping dog owners build strong, lasting relationships with their pets.

I’m proud to introduce my pack, which includes two working explosives detection dogs, along with some other lovable members of the team: Milo, Rooster, Doris, Magde, and Frankie.

Milo: A spirited chocolate working cocker spaniel with boundless enthusiasm for his work. His energy and eagerness to please make him an absolute joy to train and work alongside.

Rooster: A driven Labrador x Pointer mix with a cheeky character. Rooster’s sharp intelligence combined with his playful spirit keeps me on my toes and reminds me daily of the importance of individualised training approaches.

Doris: A loyal and gentle Rottweiler, Doris may look imposing but is a big softie at heart. Her calm and confident nature makes her an amazing companion and a great example of the Rottweiler’s true, loving character.

Magde: A feisty little Jack Russell with a big personality, Magde is always ready for an adventure. Her tenacity and sharp mind mean she’s always quick to learn, but her cheeky side keeps things interesting!

Frankie: The adorable French Bulldog with endless charm. Frankie loves to be the center of attention, and his affectionate, easygoing nature brings joy to everyone around him. Despite his laid-back demeanor, he’s always up for a bit of fun and training

Creating a better bond

Every dog is unique, and so is every owner. I believe that the key to a harmonious relationship between dogs and their owners lies in personalised training methods.

At Dogaholics, I use a variety of tools and approaches to suit the specific needs of each dog and their owner. My goal is to help you enjoy living with your dog by providing you with the skills and techniques needed for a peaceful, happy life together.

Experience & Professionalism

With over a decade of experience in both military and civilian dog training, I bring a wealth of knowledge to help your dog become a well-behaved member of your family.

Understanding that no two dogs are the same, I customise my training methods to fit your dog’s personality and your lifestyle.

My love for dogs drives everything I do, and I’m committed to helping you create a strong, positive bond with your dog.

From basic obedience to specialised behaviour modification, I offer a comprehensive range of services to meet your needs.
