About me
My name is Vicki and I have been "officially" training dogs now for 2 years, I have studied with the OCN and gained NVQ Level 2 in Dog Training and Behaviour. I will also be taking a course on dog grooming so your pets can be pampered in every way possible with Dawe's Paws!
I have always had a strong passion for animals and probably drove my parents mad as a child, bringing various pets home! I have always had a knack for training dogs but only recently decided upon it as a career, I originally qualified as a childrens Behaviour Assistant, working in various schools across the borough, but something was never quite right. I finally decided to take the plunge and started working with a friend at her training classes, giving me valuable insight into, not only how classes were run, but more importantly how to deal with the owners!
I thoroughly enjoy running my classes and myself and the members can often be found laughing out loud at their (and my) dogs antics!
In my spare time myself and my partner compete with our dogs in the fast paced sport of Flyball, it's a great outlet for the dogs and gets VERY competitive for the handlers! for more information on flyball, please visit our team website at http://www.rotherhamrocketsflyballteam.com/
