Information:
If you are experiencing problems with the behaviour of your cats or dogs, either at home or when out of the house, I am available to help you understand the foundations of the problems, as well as advise you on how best to change things around.

All Behaviour Consultations for cat problems are routinely done in your home, and this home visit service is also available for dog owners.

The Centre Of Applied Pet Ethology's state-of-the-art EMRA model (assessing emotionality, mood-state and the factors reinforcing the behaviour) is the core approach used in all the Cape Animal Behaviour Centre's work.

We also offer Puppy Socialisation and Clicker Home Training Classes from Junior level onwards using the levels system - optimising your choice and letting you progress at your own rate. One-on-one training and remedial options are also available.

I am also able to offer selection advice for prospective owners and a gentle ear for those struggling with the loss of a beloved pet. As well as this, I periodically do media interviews, public workshops and seminars.
