I'm so glad you found me. I'm Charlotte, Founder and Certified Dog Trainer and Behaviourist at Canny Canines, and I've been where you are today!
I specialise in helping nervous, reactive and working-breed dogs live calmer and happier lives through the use of kind and effective training.
My most recent dogs have included Jasper, my American Bulldog, and Freya, my Tibetan Mastiff X Central Asian Shepherd. My own struggles with Freya's behaviour sparked my journey to helping others when she was uncontrollable on the lead. At 50kg, that was no easy feat! Hopefully, I can share our special experience with you sometime soon.

Now I share my life with Phoenix, my German Shepherd puppy, and share our journey on my socials. I have big plans for her, but you'll have to keep watch to find out what they are!
With qualifications and experience, I have honed my special framework and unique programmes, both from my own dogs and the hundreds of dogs I’ve been honoured to help over the years. I even teach this to other trainers so they can also achieve great results with their clients. I can’t wait to show you, from the comfort of your own home, how to solve and prevent your own dog’s behaviour problems too!
"Charlotte has been so helpful and supportive with my training of Teia and Theo my two dachshunds. They are both reactive to lots of things! But since we have been working hard on this they have improved hugely! We have had two wonderful walks this week which were stress free."

"Charlotte is very calm & knowledgeable. She helps to filter out the all the advice that's around to show you the best way to get results from your dog.
After countless weeks of trying to get my pup to walk nicely Charlotte quickly demonstrated what to do. Less than two weeks of practice and it's worked! Thank you Charlotte!"
