Support Our Rescue Shelter

Practical, Positive and Honest

Dog behaviour is more complex than most online advice lets on. I build every plan around reward-based methods and the best evidence available; being honest and looking at full picture of your dog's life; rather than reaching for a one-size-fits-all quick-fix answer.

Specialist Support for Rescue Dogs Around Bristol and Online

I work with rescue organisations to assess dogs, develop training and behaviour plans, and prepare them for life in a home. Once rescue dogs get home, I help them settle, adapt to their new life and overcome their past.

You'll Understand Your Dog Better Than You Ever Have

My job isn't just to tell you what to do. It's to make sure you know why it works and exactly how to do it, so you feel confident and capable long after the sessions end.

Jodi and Pepe -

“My dog became very fearful and reactive after leg surgery. Working with Sezan has transformed our lives. We were provided with a fantastic action plan, and taking part in the Oz Dogs Support Group has allowed us to practise everything in real world situations. Sezan has been an absolute life-safer. Highly recommend.”

Frank and Elsie -

“Sezan was excellent in helping us overcoming Elsie’s reactive behaviour to other dogs. She was diligent in understanding the behaviour and analysing the root cause. The report and subsequent training sessions and methodologies were thorough and effective. Sezan provided us with the right tools and coached us in our behaviour to help Elsie deal with and respond to the situations we were struggling with. We are delighted with the outcome and the positive change in Elsie’s behaviour. Would highly recommend Oz Dogs for their expertise and professional competence”.

What I can help with . . .

Dog Behaviour Support
Reactivity, separation anxiety, dog aggression, fear and nervousness, repetitive behaviours, and handling or grooming sensitivities. If your dog's behaviour is making daily life harder, I can help. In-person sessions in and around Bristol.

Dog Training
Recall, loose lead walking, basic obedience, and building genuine engagement and connection between you and your dog. Practical, reward-based training that works in real life, not just in a session. Available in person around Bristol and online worldwide.

Rescue & Shelter Consultancy
Bespoke behaviour support for shelters and adopters navigating life with a rescue dog. For shelters, this includes dog behaviour assessments, training plans, staff education, and ongoing or ad-hoc consultancy. For adopters, I offer specialist support for the challenges that come after bringing a rescue home - reactivity, settling issues, fearful behaviour, and anything else the adoption form didn't prepare you for.
