About Ellie

Professional qualified dog trainer and behaviourist in Essex Ellie

On a personal note, I’m a sun worshipper, a first-time mum, and a cleaning freak with a dark sense of humour!

My favourite things to do are go to the beachfront for a walk, play on the 2p machines in the arcades, watch an addictive crime series, and go for long walks in the woods with my partner, Tony and my daughter, Millie.

Although I have been lucky enough to be owned by many weird and wonderful dog breeds, my favourite breed of dog is a Rottweiler, and I have a huge soft spot for all Bullbreeds and Boxers!

I have had the pleasure of living with all of these breeds before, and I know in the future we will definitely be having Rotties as part of our family. 

My true speciality lies in working with the following behaviours:

  • Dog-Dog & Dog-Human Fear, Frustration and Aggression
  • Relationship Struggles In Multi-Dog Households
  • Socialising Difficulties
  • Resource Guarding

I predominantly work with Cocker Spaniels, Cockapoo’s, French Bulldogs & German Shepherds, as these breeds are genetically prone to the behaviour problems that I specialise in.

Ellie helped us tremendously when we rescued our current dog. We were totally unprepared for the baggage that sadly came with her, due to the way she had been treated. With Ellie's knowledge and understanding, we were helped to create a safe and anxiety free environment, and we have a loving and superb dog today. We could not have done it without her help and potentially may have had to take the ultimate decision for Tilly.

My Fairy Dog Mother. Ellie changed the quality of life for me & my rescue dog, Honey. I first contacted Ellie after a series of failed training classes. Simple tasks like taking Honey for a walk were so hard, but Ellie's knowledge and experience meant that she knew exactly how to support and manage Honey's (and my) behaviour. Her ability to read Honey and understand what's happening in her head is incredible. Ellie really does this because she loves dogs and wants to make sure they have a good life. She genuinely is our Fairy Dog Mother & I would highly recommend her.
