Ireland's Dog Behaviour & Health Consultancy
We support families and professionals through evidence-led, welfare-first dog behaviour work with a strong emphasis on health, pain-awareness, and real-world practicality.
If you're overwhelmed, worried, or simply want a clearer path forward, you're in the right place.
Grounded in current science and welfare-focused practice
The dog's wellbeing guides every decision we make
We look for physical factors behind every behaviour
We work as a team with vets, physios and trainers
Dog behaviour doesn't exist in a vacuum. The most effective support happens when we look at the whole picture — health, environment, stress, learning history, and family life — then bring the right people together.
We collaborate with a trusted network of professionals including experienced trainers, veterinary teams, veterinary behaviourists, physiotherapists, groomers, and other specialists where needed — so your plan is well-rounded, practical, and genuinely supportive.
