ABOUT ME

Hannah Walker MSC CCAB
Clinical Animal Behaviourist
I have a longstanding interest in animal behaviour, with a particular focus on dogs. I have worked as a behaviourist with Schooling 4 Dogs for over six years, alongside several additional years of experience volunteering and fostering for a Sussex-based foreign dog rescue (Give a Dog a Home) and as a volunteer 'CAMbassador' for Canine Arthritis Management. I have both personal and professional experience with ex-street dogs and a particular passion for working with rescue dogs.
I have written academic theses on the behavioural characteristics associated with repetitive object-chase play in dogs and on men-directed fear in dogs. My methods are force-free and grounded in the latest scientific research. I am continually expanding my experience and professional development through seminars, webinars and workshops run by respected canine professionals. I am fully accredited with CCAB, a widely recognised and respected standard within the field of clinical animal behaviour, meaning my consultation fees are eligible for reimbursement under many pet insurance policies (subject to individual policy terms).
