Training & Behaviour
Support that’s built for real life
(and real Spaniels)
You’re not alone – and you’re definitely not a bad dog parent.
Whether you’re dealing with endless barking, dodgy recall, full-body lunges at squirrels, or the kind of anxiety that leaves you feeling like you can’t leave the house – I’m here to help.
Spaniel behaviour can feel like a mystery wrapped in zoomies wrapped in chaos. But there’s always a reason behind the madness. And there’s always a way through it.
I work with Spaniel and Spaniel-cross guardians who love their dogs – but are finding things tough. Sometimes it’s behaviour that’s worrying or overwhelming. Sometimes it’s training challenges that never quite stick. Often, it’s both.
What matters most is that you want to build a better relationship with your dog, and you’re ready to invest in support that goes beyond quick fixes.
Here’s the kind of stuff I help with:

Barking, whining and general noisiness

Separation anxiety and clinginess

Anxiety, fear, or overexcitement around people and dogs

Pulling on the lead or dragging you to the park

Jumping up (on you, your visitors, your nan…)

Not listening when they’re off lead

Struggling to settle outdoors or at home

Aggression or tension between dogs in the same household

Resource guarding and food-related tension

Toileting indoors
How we work together
I don’t offer one-off sessions. Not because I’m trying to upsell you – but because real change takes time, and I only work with people who are ready to commit to that.
When we work together, you get:
- Bespoke, 1:1 support tailored to your dog and your lifestyle
- A clear plan based on what actually helps Spaniels thrive
- Ongoing guidance and feedback (so you’re never left second-guessing)
- My years of experience, continual professional development, and deep love of Spaniels – all in your corner
This isn’t a one-size-fits-all programme. It’s not a ‘fix your dog in a weekend’ promise. It’s real, grounded, specialist support that gets results, for dogs and their humans.
Happy Clients
“Just had a great training session with Hannah today.
Learning how to distract Abbie from other dogs and water as she loves going for a swim.
I can’t recommend Hannah enough, she is calm and clear with all instructions. I think the most impressive thing was the training with the vacuum cleaner.
Eight years we have had a problem and Hannah sorted it out first go.
Very impressed.
Each session has been in depth with clear explanations of why Abbie is acting the way she does.”
“I happily recommend Hannah to my clients (Pawsitive Vet Care).
She is a great observer of dog behaviour and explains things really well.
It’s great working with her to improve the wellbeing of Warwickshire’s dogs!”
