UTTOXETER'S LOCAL DOG BEHAVIOUR EXPERTS

“Hello, I'm Sonya, the owner and trainer here at Waggy Tails Dog Training.

​​

​I have owned dogs large and small, from Irish wolfhounds right down to my lovely beagle, Pippa. I have competed in many dog show competitions including Crufts over the years. Training my dogs, and those of my friends, family and clients, has given me great pleasure and satisfaction seeing them come on over the time of their training. 

​

Over the years I have trained and studied with many institutions including The Kennel Club, Open University and, more recently, with the Institute of Modern Dog Trainers and Canine Principles.

​

I have used positive, motivational training for over 25 years, alongside working as a teacher/lecturer and being a mum. I took the step to swap marking for barking full time and love my current role supporting people in their journey with their dog or puppy.

​

I feel it is really important to give my clients and their humans the most up to date positive training opportunities, which are reward-based and most of all, fun. I believe that silly questions don't exist - ask away! That's what I'm here for and we all never stop learning.

​

I look forward to speaking with you to find the right solution for you and your dog/puppy. Give me a call or text or fill a contact form in. I always aim to get back to you within 1 business day."
