About us
Hi, I’m Em — and I specialize in dogs with a lot of personality. If your dog is a bit extra, prone to big meltdowns, or secretly a high-octane drama queen, you’re in the right place.
I help owners navigate the stress of living with spicy, sensitive, and overstimulated dogs through judgment-free, real-world reactivity rehabilitation. I know how exhausting it is to feel isolated, embarrassed, or entirely out of control when your dog’s feelings get too big for them to handle.
That’s why my programs aren’t about rigid perfection or cookie-cutter commands. They’re designed to lower the volume on the chaos, build real confidence at both ends of the leash, and turn your spicy companion into a calm, reliable partner.
You don’t have a “bad” dog—you just have a sensitive one who needs a better roadmap.
Why we do it
Vision
The dog training world can be overwhelming.
There are endless methods, opinions, rules and people on the internet telling owners what they are doing wrong.
We want Em’s Pups to be the opposite of that.
Our aim is to give owners clear information, realistic tools and the confidence to make good decisions for their own dog without constantly worrying about doing everything perfectly.
Alongside training, we offer walking, daycare, boarding and other services designed around the same principle: knowing the individual dog and giving them the support, structure and enrichment they actually need.
Mission
Our goal is to make dog training practical, understandable and genuinely useful in everyday life.
We create individual training plans based on each dog’s needs rather than forcing every dog through the same programme.
That might mean working on reactivity, building confidence, improving communication, teaching everyday skills, exploring breed-specific outlets or simply helping you understand why your dog behaves the way they do.
Good training shouldn’t only work during a class. It should make normal life together easier
HOW IT STARTED
«“My training journey started when I was around 15. My first dog was terrified of his trainer and clearly wasn’t thriving. I decided to start learning how to work with him myself, and I never really
stopped.
Helping dogs feel better in their everyday lives, and giving owners the tools to understand them, is still the part of this job I care about most.”»
