About Dawn…
Dawn began her career as a veterinary nurse, moved onto dog training and dog grooming and now teaches agility full-time. She takes seminars both nationally and internationally, having taught extensively in the USA, Spain, Ireland, the Netherlands, Sweden to name but a few.
Dawn handles differently to most in that she believes that handlers should be using the dog’s handling system rather than a set system designed by a person for the dog to learn. Surely using their preferred natural way of being directed is better than enforcing an unnatural system upon them. So if Dawn’s dog goes the ‘wrong’ way then she rewards them regardless and learns from it, asking herself how she just directed her dog in that direction, rather than just blaming the dog for a ‘mistake’.
She believes that a dog gives you unconditional love which never varies no matter how many handling mistakes you have just made in the ring! This should be a two-way street and if her dog makes a mistake in the ring, or in training, her love is equally unconditional and her treatment of him does not change.
Using this natural handling has resulted in her dogs achieving an endless list of accomplishments.
Dawn believes in teaching your dog that you are his best friend, rewarding him for each success and directing (without suppressing) a dog’s enthusiasm. Her unique style of handling gives the dog clear, early and reliable information so that he always knows what is coming next and has the confidence to run at top speed. She is also well-known for her fast and accurate running contacts and shaped-stop contacts.
