A note from Bethany and Libbi..

​

Undoubtedly, dogs are our lives! Our own dogs, your dogs.. all dogs!

​

We love working with people and their dogs to help change the way that they can enjoy their relationship.

 

Whatever your issue may be - from recall to aggressive behaviour - we can help.

 

Our aim is to make you to feel supported, give you a successful plan which enables progress. Most importantly, we want you and your dog to be happy!

 

We train using kind and effective techniques to build the confidence of owners and their dogs, and to create real, lasting change.

 

Our behaviour programmes enable us to give you and your dog the time that you need to make the best progress that you can, whilst feeling supported through that journey.

 

We specialise in Bull Breeds, Reactive/Aggressive Behaviour and Rescue Dogs, although we absolutely love working with dogs of all shapes, sizes and issues!

Jenny - Juke's Mum

I couldn’t recommend Bethany enough. She has given me so much more confidence in controlling my large and strong dog. Her training changed my walks after just the first session.

She is very knowledgeable and helped me understand why my dog reacts to certain situations.

Juke and I both look forward to seeing you again soon.

Thank you

Bethany is so knowledgeable at reading dogs behaviour, and helping you understand why your dog is behaving a certain way, and then gives you the confidence and help to move forward and tackle those things with a clear plan. Highly recommend Bonny Dog Behaviour

Sarah - Sam's Mum

Bethany was a god send for me and my rescue Staffordshire Bull Terrier when I noticed increasing behaviour issues in my dog.

She is kind, very knowledgeable & cares so much about the animals that she works with. We have had just a handful of sessions together and I have already seen so much positive change in my dog.

We can't wait to work with her further

Thankyou Bethany x
