I am a lifelong dog lover with 4 of my own dogs at home. I’ve worked tirelessly for the last 6 years in the rescue and rehabilitation of dogs.

I’m the founder and a Trustee of Phoenix Rehoming, Registered Charity 1175478. I continue to rescue, foster and rehabilitate dogs from the U.K. and overseas. Phoenix Rehoming won U.K. Rescue Of The Year 2021 at the Animal Star Awards.

During that time I have undergone modern and science based learning in dog training, behaviour and care. I participate in continuous professional development.

Working with rescue dogs has given me a unique insight into their behaviour and common behavioural issues they can display.

Much of my work has been with dogs rescued from Romania. Romanian rescue dogs (and European rescues) can present very unique behavioural challenges.

I have rehabilitated more than 250 rescue dogs in my own home. Some with very complex needs, often fear based.
