About me

I'm Rachael a Qualified IMDT trainer & Advanced Canine Hoopers UK Instructor, up to date with the latest science based methods, using positive training techniques, studying with The school of canine science, Institute of modern dog trainers, and more. Training my own dog Rogan has resulted in Tv work, advertising, performing at events and many show wins. I also have a rescue dog with a brain injury, and understand the importance of building a bond and adapting to the individual dog's needs. Over 15 years experience working with all breeds & ages, I've worked in rescue centres & boarding kennels before setting up Passion for pets in 2010, I'm first aid trained and a qualified microchip implanter. I live in Whitchurch BS14 and currently run dog training classes in Keynsham/Willsbridge BS30 6EH & Bitton BS30 6LL
