About Aileen Stevenson .....

Like many trainers I was first introduced to dog training with my own "problem" dog, Charlie, an ex-Romanian street dog. Seeing the transformation that training made to his behaviour and confidence sparked my interest and I began to learn more.  That interest quickly became a passion and over the intervening years I have continued to learn and expand my knowledge.

I am  -

• a graduate & Certified Training Partner of the world renowned Karen Pryor Academy 
• a fully qualified & assessed member of the Institute of Modern Dog Trainers (IMDT) 
  
• a member of  the Pet Professional Guild of the British Isles 
• a member of the International Companion Animal Network (ICAN)
• the only trainer in Scotland qualified and licensed to deliver the internationally acclaimed Dogs & Storks programmes from Family Paws Parent Education
• a current student of Compass Education's Advanced Diploma in Canine Behaviour Management (ADip CBM)
• a qualified canine first aider 
  

As a parent I have a particular interest in promoting safe child/dog interactions and am the first, and currently only, trainer in Scotland licensed to deliver the internationally renowned Dogs & Storks and Dogs & Toddler educational programmes.

Learning never stops and continuing professional development is hugely important to me in order that I can offer you the best service possible. I continually develop my knowledge by networking with trainers around the world and by attending as many workshops, conferences and seminars as possible.

I use only modern, ethical, effective training techniques and will always put your dog's welfare at the heart of everything I do.  I am committed to doing my very best for every dog & owner I work with.

Happy training x
