Rosie Parkes

Head Obedience and Agility Instructor

Agility 1st Accredited Training Instructor

Growing up I had the pleasure of sharing my life with various rescue dogs, each bringing with them their own personalities and struggles. Helping the dogs turn their struggles around and have a good quality of life led me to wanting to find out more and help others enjoy their dogs. In 2012 I completed a Diploma in Canine Behaviour and Obedience Training and have been working with dogs ever since.

Throughout my career I have undertaken various training courses to understand how to grow and develop a fantastic relationship with your dog including how dogs communicate, different ways to handle dogs and how to help owners bond with their dogs through training.
