TRAILS FOR TAILS

We understand how difficult and worrying it can be because we have the same challenges ourselves when we go on holiday. I’m Connie Rafferty and I have been running Trails for Tails with my partner KC Richards since 2011. Through my work with dogs, ongoing studies and research I have gained an understanding of how dogs communicate and learn including tools and techniques for modifying behaviour, the importance of knowing about different breeds including their needs/instinctual drives and how owners through our behaviour, mood and energy levels hugely influence and shape our dog's behaviour. We encourage owners to communicate clearly with their dogs and be consistent with their rules and expectations to avoid confusion and inadvertently reinforcing unwanted behaviours.
