Dale has been training dogs on and off for 17 years. She has an impressive level of experience in teaching classes, one to one lessons, outdoor workshops and residential training. Dale set up VIP Dog Training Services to service the needs of dog owners in the local area, to provide a premier service.
As you can see from the below Dale is highly Qualified and is also accredited to and a member of The Institute of Modern Dog Trainers, The Pet Professional Network and an affiliate member of The International Companion Animal Network.
Dale has shared her life with a variety of dogs, including Akitas, Rough Collie, Lurchers, German Shepherds, collies and Greyhounds. Always feeling very lost if there wasn't a dog in her life.
She now has an eclectic selection of dogs - a Shiba Inu, a Husky x Malamute x Northern Inuit x Czech Wolf Dog and a Dogue de Bordeaux cross Cane Corso. As you can tell from her own dogs Dale loves a challenge and doesn't do things by halves! All of Dales dogs are her pets first and training dogs second. She didn't get any of her dogs to keep the others company or to use for training purposes, each one of her dogs was chosen because she had an interest in the breed and wanted to share her life with them. Dale generally takes on dogs with issues and dogs that would otherwise end up being passed from home to home or even put to sleep because of their issues.
Dale takes on dogs which otherwise would be passed from home to home or have a shorter life due to their issues. Dales philosophy is that every dog who comes and lives with her will stay for the rest of their life, no matter the issue!
Several of Dales dogs came with behavioural problems ranging from the mild to the severe. Dale worked on these issues, so she understands what it is like to live with a problem dog and she also understands better than most the work and dedication that goes into resolving behavioural problems.
She is always looking to expand her knowledge of dogs and their behaviour, so regularly attends training courses and seminars, as well as regularly reading a wide variety of training books and watching DVD's. Keeping herself educated with the very best and most modern techniques and services available in the industry so that you can be sure that the education you receive is the best available in the area!
Dale is a member of The Institute of Modern Dog Trainers, PACT, The Pet Professional Network, International companion animal network and is also a veterinary trained microchip implanter.
