About The Trainer

Hayley offers tailored training programs to address everything from basic training and obedience to solutions to more complex behavior issues like reactivity and separation anxiety.

Hayley began sharing dog behavior tips and progress videos on her art Instagram account (@slowmotionhome_), which brought in new clients from creative backgrounds. The success of this approach inspired Hayley to expand her reach and transition into the virtual space, offering her expertise to a broader audience.

Hayley holds qualifications in canine training and behaviour and within her studies, she conducted research with dog owners, carers, veterinarians, and dog lawyers to help inform her overall practice and style.

She volunteered for rescues, including street dog rescue charities, which made up the bulk of her client base before expanding with all manner of dogs via social media.
A deep commitment to understanding both the dog and carer and the bond between them is at the heart of her approach.

Rather than following one-size-fits-all methods, Hayley believes in creating personalized solutions for each case. Her goal is to solve behaviour problems focusing on real-life outcomes rather than simply applying a standard approach.

While many behaviourists now shy away from obedience, Hayley emphasizes its importance in building a strong foundation. She believes that teaching a dog real-world skills—like having a solid understanding of what to do in high-pressure situations—is essential for true rehabilitation.

Hayley’s approach respects a dog’s natural thresholds whilst never encouraging avoidance of real-world situations. Instead, she empowers carers to confidently manage behavior issues that can be fixed or, at the very least, significantly improved—without the need for drastic lifestyle changes.

Hayley does not rely on excitement or bribery in her training. She aims to teach dogs resilience in a human-dominated world, helping them develop the skills needed to navigate it alongside their carer, all while fostering a strong, positive bond.

Training with Purpose

If you’ve been throwing treats on the floor to distract your dog when they react or using collar corrections to "fix" their behavior, and it hasn’t worked - you’re in the right place.

My approach doesn’t focus on luring, distracting, or, ‘punishing’ to communicate. The goal is to gift you the skillset to help train essential behaviours and help formulate a holistic plan to turn around your dog’s issues.

Personalized Training Programs

Each training program is customized to meet your dog’s unique needs, with a focus on long-term success. Whether you’re looking for answers or just want to get results, I am here to help you build a stronger relationship with your dog and achieve lasting change.

I’m always motivated by carers who want to understand the why behind their dog’s behavior, but if you just want to get things done—all good, too!
