I'm Swedish, but I have lived in the UK since winter 1997. I took my first dog instructor diploma in Sweden, in 1994. Click here to see my Swedish Dog Instructor Certificate, translated into English. I quickly followed that with an instructor diploma in Agility and one in Competitive Obedience. I have since trained dog owners and all kinds of dogs, in various types of courses.
I keep myself updated on the latest training techniques and behaviour knowledge by reading books and going to seminars. You can read reviews of my favourite books on the book page. My two favourite seminars to date (since I moved to the UK) was Jean Donaldsons talk for Barking Jones (click the link to get updates on when Jean Donaldson will return for her next talk) and the 1st European Dog Training Conference arranged by friendlywithdogs.com. At the conference I saw Suzanne Clothier speak for the first time and was very impressed. I would recommend anyone to read her book - Bones would rain from the sky.
