Your Whole Dog

Helping you make your dog's day better

You don't need another trainer. You need someone who will help you understand your dog.

Whether you're struggling with behaviour, supporting an ageing or active dog, or looking for quality dog gear that improves everyday life ...

I look at the whole picture. Body, mind, and emotions.

Based in Wellington and the Hutt Valley, with an online shop shipping NZ-wide.

  • Gait & Posture Assessment

    Something's off, but what is it?

    Has your training stalled? Has there been a behaviour change, seemingly out of nowhere, and nothing quite adds up?

    Dogs hide discomfort well. A movement assessment can uncover the missing piece of the puzzle.

  • Online Enrichment Shop

    Thoughtfully chosen products to make your dog's day better.

    Tired of gimmicky products that don't deliver?

    Enrichment is more than just food toys and keeping dogs ‘busy’. It’s meeting your dog’s physical, behavioural, and emotional needs.

    The right gear makes all the difference.

It’s all connected

Behaviour, body, and emotions aren't separate things; they're all talking to each other, all the time. A dog who's anxious on walks might be sore. A dog who's slowing down might also be losing confidence. You can't understand one without looking at the others.

This is what I bring to every dog I work with. Whether you come to me because something's changed, your dog is struggling, or you simply want to support their wellbeing, I'm always looking at the whole picture. The answer is rarely in just one place.

Ask me one thing, and don't be surprised if I ask you three more back. What you're asking about usually isn't the only thing going on.

Supporting dogs and their people in Wellington, the Hutt Valley, and surrounding areas through canine massage, fitness and conditioning, cooperative care training and behaviour coaching.

At Your Whole Dog,  you’ll find a carefully curated selection of products that support your dog’s well-being, because the right gear makes all the difference.

I got tired of wading through gimmicky products that don't deliver, so I created the shop I wish I'd had years ago.

Your Whole Dog's guarantee: If I wouldn't use it with my own dogs, I won't sell it. Simple as that.
