Motivation

A little over 12 months ago, Ralph came into my life, as an adolescent Cocker Spaniel. His early life had left him struggling to navigate a world outside of the show kennels that he had been brought up in. Working with him (with the help of Dr Anita at Behavet) has shown me just how much we can achieve with knowledge and patience. Watching this amazing transformation has highlighted just how many of the pets we meet on a daily basis, are struggling emotionally ( the ones who are "just excited", "just noisy" or " only like this at the vets"). Our journey has truly inspired me to pursue a role in behaviour, where education and compassion ( for both pet and owner) can achieve amazing transformations in quality of life.
