Shelley has now received certification for the ‘Preparing to Teach Adult Learners’ course she took earlier this year, and is now one of only a very small number of dog trainers to hold a qualification in teaching both the dogs and the humans!
And in a effort to prove that Professional Development should always be an ongoing process, she has now enrolled in world renowned training expert Kay Laurence’s ‘Teaching Puppies and Adolescents’ course, and will soon be applying what she has learnt to improving our Puppy Academy courses.





Chief trainer Shelley has recently completed Lauren Langman’s Accredited Agility Instructor Programme Level 1, and is signed up to complete Level 2 next year.
Lauren runs Devon Dogs, and is at the forefront of modern training in the UK. The LLAAI Programme has been designed to give trainers a complete toolkit of methodologies, teaching and learning styles, and teaching ideas for classes, and we will be adding the new skills and information taken from the course to ensure we are working to constantly improve what we offer to you, our students.
