About Muttamorphosis

Sue was first introduced to dog training when, like so many, she owned her first 'problem' dog. From there, she has spent almost ten years training and competing in obedience, agility and working trials. She also taught pet dog training classes in her former club, the Working Trials Club of Ireland.

For over six years Sue has worked in the voluntary dog rescue sector as a kennel hand, dog fosterer, temperament assessor and re-homing officer. (See www.ruffdogs.co.uk for more info about rehoming a rescue dog). She has also worked professionally in a dog boarding kennels and as a grooming assistant.

Sue has studied Canine Psychology with the Animal Care College, and has trained with John Rogerson of the Northern Centre for Canine Behaviour. Theories of dog training and behaviour are constantly evolving and Sue believes that her continued learning and experience can only serve to help her deal with each and every dog on his own merit and help all dogs live a safe, happy and healthy life.

Sue is a member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers, offering a guarantee of quality when choosing a training class or private dog trainer. All members have been assessed and follow a strict code of practice which ensures that punitive techniques and equipment are not used. Sue has also reached Competency Assessment Level 1 for clicker trainers. This qualification was gained through training and assessment by Kay Laurence's Learning About Dogs Team, recognized by many as the authority on clicker training in the UK.
