We want to help owners and dogs be happy!
Here at Canine Training Academy, we believe in having fun and applying a holistic approach when it comes to understanding the needs of your canine companion. Whatever your goals, we will get you and your dog enjoying life and help you make your home a happy and harmonious place.
With over 25 years of experience in the canine industry, our lead trainer Shelley has amassed a wide breadth of skills and expertise. This includes everything from training, professional dog handling, canine health and wellbeing to grooming, whelping and showing her award winning Giant Schnauzers to a championship level including Crufts.
Shelley passionately believes that everything is connected, so it’s not just about treating the obvious problems or providing one specific technique. All aspects can make a difference, from diet to the dog's history and their environment. Shelley works with you and your dog to provide a positive, long-term solution, ensuring you have a complete and fulfilling relationship together.

We regularly receive great feedback
“Shelley has been instrumental in really helping me enjoy having my first dog. Her ability to read both the dog and their owner makes her approach incredibly effective. I was shocked how quickly she understood all of my character traits and how they were impacting Bertie. She really helped me understand his needs but also recognising I had a life to balance as well. Am so glad I was introduced to her. Absolutely the best in class. And Bertie would agree!”
