Josh

I have extensive hands-on experience with a wide variety of species, giving me a strong foundation in animal training, care, and behaviour management. My work has included training lions and elephants, as well as hand-rearing tigers from a young age, which required commitment, patience, and a deep understanding of animal welfare. I have also trained monkeys for film and performance work, ensuring they respond safely and reliably in demanding environments.

Alongside this specialist background with exotic animals, I also work extensively with domestic dogs, focusing on obedience and behaviour. By drawing on experience across different species, I am able to adapt training methods to suit individual needs, always placing safety, trust, and positive reinforcement at the heart of the process.

I am passionate about helping owners build strong, lasting bonds with their dogs. My approach combines practical expertise with patience and creativity, and my background gives me unique insights into animal psychology and handling. Whether I am supporting families with their pets, preparing animals for media work, or working within professional training environments, I bring a calm, reliable, and compassionate approach to every situation.
