The bond between dogs and their families is incredibly strong, so when behavioural, emotional, or physical challenges arise, it can feel stressful and overwhelming for everyone involved. I’m here to help us work together to find kind, practical, realistic and supportive solutions.

At Rascals we want information, care and advice to be accessible to all.

There is no charge for our advice. All I ask is that the problem and treatment is posted on this site so others can benefit from what we have achieved together. All names are changed.

I have also run my own dog grooming business since 2004 and now specialise in helping dogs who have been deemed ‘ungroomable’ to adopt a positive association to grooming or by teaching owners how to positively and safely manage their dogs grooming at home to reduce or eliminate trips to the groomers.
