Struggling with puppy problems such as nipping, toilet training or being distressed when left alone?
My reward-based puppy classes & ‘3-Month Puppy Programme’ are here to help you and your puppy get off to a great start and support you throughout puppy hood.
Puppy classes:
small class size, fun & supportive
positive socialisation & training foundations
3-Month Puppy Programme:
ongoing personalised support through the highs and lows of puppy-life
Bringing a puppy home is exciting, but the reality can be different to what we expected - puppy life can be exhausting!

Young Dogs

It was all going so well… but now it feels like they have forgotten everything!
I’ll help you develop practical, reward-based ways to make every day dog-life easier, while helping your dog feel calmer, more confident and able to make good choices.
My 3-month programme gives you the plan, time and ongoing support to put new skills into real-life practice and make lasting change.

About Me
Hi, I’m Louise.
I founded Animal Understanding to help dogs and their humans develop mutual understanding and trust, build a great relationship and enjoy life together.
I specialise in puppies (because puppy life can be hard work!) and young dogs — the ‘lovable rogues’, ‘big personalities’ and ‘cheeky characters’ who don't always behave quite as we'd hoped. Maybe they’ve forgotten all their training, lost their recall or turned walks into a nightmare, especially around other dogs. It can be really tough at times, but I am here to help and give ongoing support.
I still get genuinely excited when owners realise things are going to get better, everything starts coming together, they and their dogs light up and enjoy spending time together again — whether that’s at home or out and about.
My approach is kind, reward-based and science-led, with your dog's welfare at the heart of everything I do. I’m a qualified dog trainer and behaviourist with a BSc (Hons) in Zoology and an MSc in Applied Animal Behaviour and Training (Distinction).
