About me
Hi, my name is Hazel and I am based in East Lothian.
I started training in 2016 with Master Groomer Agnes Murphy at Scotgroom. I achieved my Level 3 City and Guilds and I set up my business in 2017.
Over the first year of grooming I found that not all dogs are happy with the grooming process. I found that some dogs are sensitive, anxious, nervous or they may carry tension in the body. When dogs come for grooming I take extra time and observe the dog. I look for coat patterns/change, skin changes, how the dog carries itself and does it look balanced.
As I have a reactive dog myself I was looking for ways to help her emotionally, physically, mentally and being more balanced and its was through this, that led me to the various courses I have completed.
I started in 2017 Pro Dog Trainer Me which is games based training. In 2018 I attended the IMDT Career as Dog Trainer. Then in 2019 I attended my first TTouch Workshop and from there I built on my TTouch skills. I have attended workshops and online courses with Linda Tellington Jones, Robyn Hood, Tina Constance, Toni Shelbourne, Lindy Dekker, Kathy Cascade and Nicki Lukka. Courses that I completed are TTouch for Puppies, Dogs with Challenging Behaviour, Aging Dogs and End of Life.
To add to my CPD, I have completed courses with Alex Wilson at Xtra Dog Training, TTouch Observations and Canine Body Language, Sleuth Dog, Reactive Rascals, Canine Body Language. Sue Williamson Taking the Grrr Out of Dog Grooming Approved Groomer. Sarah Fisher ACE Module 1 and 2 and I am a Reiki 2 Practitioner.
I also Judge Belgian Shepherds and I recently gained my Judging Diploma in Belgian Shepherds and completed BSD Breed Appreciation Exam.
I am now able to hold, half day/one day workshops for Tellington Touch.
