I Don't Give Up On Dogs

Hi, I'm Maggie. For over 10 years, I've been helping owners transform their dogs' behaviour—especially the "difficult" cases that other trainers turn away.

I'm not your typical dog trainer.

While many trainers focus on obedient puppies and basic manners, I specialise in the hard cases:

  • Reactive and aggressive dogs

  • Large, powerful breeds (Dobermans, Cane Corsos, Rottweilers)

  • Dogs with bite histories

  • Dogs that have "failed" with other trainers

Why? Because I understand these dogs.

As an owner of 4 Dobermans and, I work with powerful, driven dogs every single day. I know what it takes to train a reactive dog, build trust with an aggressive dog, and transform a "problem dog" into a confident companion.

My approach isn't about quick fixes or dominance theory. It's about understanding why your dog behaves the way they do and creating lasting change through proper training, clear communication, and addressing the root cause—not just the symptoms.

What Makes Me Different?

🐕 Reactive & Aggressive Dogs

💪 Large & Powerful Breeds

🏆 Real-World Training

My #1 specialisation. If your dog lunges, barks, bites, or shows aggression, I've worked with hundreds just like them. I understand fear-based reactivity, barrier frustration, and aggression—and how to fix it.

💪 Large & Powerful Breeds

Dobermans, Cane Corsos, Rottweilers, German Shepherds—these are the breeds I live and breathe. I own 4 Dobermans and train them in protection sports. I understand power, drive, and intensity.

I'm not just a classroom trainer. I compete in IGP competitions across the UK with my Dobermans, which means I train high-drive, powerful dogs to the highest standards. This experience translates directly to helping your dog succeed.

How I Work

Unlike many trainers who offer a "one-size-fits-all" approach, I create individualised training plans based on your dog's specific issues, triggers, and history.

We start with a 90-minute behavioural consultation where I assess your dog, understand their history, and identify the root causes of their behaviour.

I create a written behaviour modification plan tailored specifically to your dog's needs—not a generic template.

Whether through group classes, one-to-one sessions, or my intensive day training programme, I work directly with you and your dog to implement the plan.

Training doesn't stop when the session ends. I provide ongoing support via WhatsApp, email, and follow-up sessions to ensure lasting results.
