Kings Hill, Tonbridge Kent
My name is Syrah and my mission is to enrich the lives of pet dogs by providing a framework of activities through which dog lovers get outside and bond with their dogs.  I believe that a mentally and physically fulfilled dog makes for a happy family dog and whether you want sound, basic dog training built on a foundation of clear communication or a fun activity that will see your dog mentally and physically challenged, The Dog Squad has something for everyone.  

My Puppy Club will get new dog owners off to the best start, focussing on HOW your new puppy learns and teaching you HOW to communicate clearly to set your puppy up for success.  In our six week Positive Puppy Course we lay a strong foundation for the behaviours you want to train but also explore the things your puppy needs you to get right from the start such as play, rest and appropriate socialisation.

My Sport Stream is tailored to provide something for every dog, whatever their personality, breed disposition, age or temperament! I am a scentwork geek, Gold Certified Instructor with UK Sniffer Dogs and a Trial Official and Judge with The National Nosework Association.  If I could get pet dog owners to do one activity with their dogs it would be scentwork.  Nothing gives me more joy than seeing a partnership flourish between handler and dog as they seek together to fulfil The Dog’s deepest desire.

With recent years seeing a dramatic rise of behavioural challenges in our pet dogs, I recognise that some dogs need 121 training, be that for life skills or sport skills and offer a limited number of one to ones for dogs that need focussed help.  Having been on a reactive dog journey myself, I also offer Neutrality classes as a stepping stone for dogs with big feelings, (be that fear or enthusiasm!) to experience appropriate exposure and training in a safe and structured group class where owners are supported and take steps towards their goals.

I have trained and certified under a number of umbrellas to bring you the most up to date training methods.  My dog training heroes include Leslie McDevitt, Denise Fenzi, Jo-Rosie, Pat Stuart, Glenn Cooke, Cameron Ford and Natalie Morris as well as many more. There is more than one way to train a dog, and it’s my job to support you with the strategies that will work best for you and your dog, to reach your goals.
