Having three children of her own, Kirsty knows how important it can be to make sure that your dog is fully integrated into the family home. It’s important that everyone is happy, and the children are fully involved with training, feel confident and included in the process. Family training will create a positive relationship and bond between the whole family and the dog.

It’s important that children have guidance on how to read a dog’s body language from the very beginning and understand when the dog may need space or isn’t happy in a particular situation. Kirsty can help to teach children this in a calm and easy way and incorporate different teaching methods into the learning process. She will introduce games, cues and ways to keep training safe and not too over excitable.

Kirsty has helped many families to have a happy dog that grows up with their children and helped to prevent behaviours from developing in the first place. Some of Kirsty’s mini trainers can have the most special relationships with their dog and can thrive from teaching their dog new techniques and games.

Kirsty will provide rosettes and prizes for children when they have participated in the training, and she can also give them tasks to complete at home.
