Meet the Professional behind PoochWise
Hello
My name is Lydia Dadson
Welcome to PoochWise!
As a qualified canine behaviourist and professional Dog Trainer in and around the Battle area, I am passionate about working closely with dog owners to help their Pooch develop essential skills and behaviours that will make them happy, healthy, and confident.
My personalised approach to dog training seeks to build stronger relationships between owner and dog by integrating fun and engaging practices to achieve positive results.
About Me.
I believe that every dog deserves to have a happy and fulfilling life with their human family. At PoochWise, I will treat your dog with kindness and understanding so they can thrive and feel confident.
I am Autistic and this enhances my ability to work with your dog as an independent dog trainer. I have a high attention to detail, and take pride in my ability to read dogs' body language. As I’m autistic, I can hyper fixation on the task at hand, ensuring every dog gets the individual attention they need to succeed. I get a huge amount of joy from working with dogs and seeing them improve week on week.
