STRATEGY-LED BUSINESS COACHING, COURSES, BRANDING & WEBSITES FOR ETHICAL DOG TRAINERS AND ANIMAL BEHAVIOURISTS
You're closer than you think to having a dog training or animal behaviour business that
Oooh… so close!
Does the business that you dreamed of feel just out of reach?
Like a counter-surfing spaniel with her eye on some food, what you want is tantalisingly close… but you’ll need some clever thinking and a bit of work to actually get your hands (or should that be paws?) on it.
It’s perfectly possible to have a profitable and sustainable business as an ethical dog trainer or animal behaviourist.
You just need to know how to set yourself up for success.
Luckily, you’re a lot smarter than a spaniel, which is why you’re here.
Leave the confusion and overwhelm behind
Take a strategy-led, values-focused and evidence-based approach to your business, so that you can feel confident about your next steps.
Because, let’s be honest, life’s too short to spend it with crossed fingers and niggling doubts.
In an era where we’re led to believe that ‘success’ is found by following superficial hacks and cookie-cutter formulas, you can find yourself lurching from one idea to another.
So, what’s the answer?

Nice to meet you!
I’m Gretta Ford… a dog behaviourist, trainer and total business nerd.
If your business isn’t yet quite where you want it to be (or even if it’s still just a twinkle in your eye), you need someone on your side who not only understands the business side of things but also has real-world experience of our industry.
Working with Gretta was the best decision I’ve ever made for my business. If you’re an animal professional that needs a little help with your business, trust me – Gretta is who you need to speak to.
