Sezan initiated the branch of a successful dog training school in Bristol, and has developed course content and delivered staff training internationally renowned and trusted dog schools; including puppy, adolescent, adult and reactive dog training courses.
As well as pet and rescue dog training, Sezan spends her spare time, you guessed it, training her own dogs! She has enjoyed developing a range of sports dog training skills, including competitive obedience, scentwork and tracking. She is now training her young Malinois with aim of competing in Mondioring, a high level dog sport requiring high levels of control in the face of distractions!
1-1 dog and puppy training is all about having fun while creating a relationship and communication system built on trust
We train on a 1-1 basis in & around Bristol; developing and refining practical skills, building connection and communication between you and your dog Learn how to:
Motivate your dog or puppy
Increase engagement and focus
Develop handling and training skills to make you a kind and effective dog trainer
Train specific behaviours i.e. lead walking, recall, settling in public, formal handling (grooming, eye/ear drops, nail clipping).
Rehearse trained behaviours to keep connected around distractions (other dogs, people, etc)
Teach tricks, scentwork, tracking and obedience to have fun and boost the relationship between you and your dog!
We are happy to offer training for any dog or puppy, however if you have a specific issue that is driven by emotional dysregulation we will not get to the root cause or treatment with dog training alone though this may help you manage your dog, in these cases we recommend a full behaviour consultation to address the complete picture

Maria and Sid -
“ Sezan has been brilliant with everything she has helped me with. She has helped me understand my dog’s emotions better, and even more impressive than that, in just a few minutes of training she managed to teach our very feisty terrier to accept eye drops with no restraint at all!!
If I could give her 10 stars out of 5 I would. She has been a lifesaver!”

Amy and Bugsy -
“Bugsey and I have been on our reactivity journey for a long time and were stuck in a rut of sticking to our same safe walks. Sezan has pushed us out of our comfort zone whilst ensuring we are always safe and supported. We love walking with the focus group, building our confidence in new environments and realising what we really can achieve.”
