Scotty Valadao Accredited 2006 - Canine
Scotty has been passionate about dogs for as long as she can remember. This passion has grown over the years and has culminated with Scotty working with dogs on a full-time professional basis since 2000 and obtaining qualifications in the following areas:-
Scotty believes that if one has the basic understanding of how and why something works, then one has the knowledge to take action in an educated manner. This applies to dogs as well, and if we can become aware as to how a dog thinks and acts and how to respond appropriately, this goes a long way to avoiding unnecessary dog bites, unnecessary behavioural problems and in general, makes the relationship with the canine world a much safer and harmonious one. For the last three years Scotty has been in partnership with Lotte Griffiths at Canine Communications in Edenvale, where they specialize in basic home obedience (non competitive) and puppy classes. Here also, it is very much their aim to educate the dog owner and give them a basic understanding of why dogs do the things they do, which leads to a much improved relationship between dog and owner. Scotty has been studying Tellington TTouch since 2003 and is a qualified Practitioner. She has found that when TTouch is used in behavioural modification and training, it reduces the dog's stress, increases self confidence and builds a stronger and more co-operative bond between dog and owner. This in turn appreciably enhances the success rate of behaviour modification therapy. |
