Mrs. Tracey Berridge, BSc (hons), MSc, M.A.P.D.T. 00671

Puppy Gurus

North Devon’s Dog Training, Behaviour and Education Centre.

I work for all the local veterinary practices doing behaviour work (advice and one-to-one), puppy parties and clinics.  I run over 20 dog training classes (clicker training and target) each week at the Centre, and am very active in local schools promoting responsible dog ownership and prevent-a-bite.  The Centre also offers educational workshops, aggression workshops, livestock workshops and “before you get your puppy” talks.  A new wing of the Dog Centre is Dogs Helping Kids (D.H.K.) which was set up to help promote the unique bond between dogs and children.  I also work with troubled teenagers using positive dog training methods (both theory and hands on), introducing them to different breeds (most of which they have never seen before), and teaching them about how to work with problem dogs using non-violent methods.  This helps them reflect on their own behaviour and how it affects those around them.
