Steve, Dog Trainer, Dog Walker

Bedfordshire

Steve is one of our dog trainers and owner of Belgian Malinois, Red and Whiskey. Steve’s main role is to deliver behavioural training sessions and deliver pack walks throughout the week. Here at Fetch Club we like to look at the big picture for each dog we work with and Steve embodies this belief. Steve always ensures he has an understanding of the dog’s day-to-day life and offers advice on how home life can affect behaviour on the walk, and how dog + owner relationships can be improved through simple and effective tweaks in areas you may not suspect are linked to overall behaviour. Steve particularly enjoys teaching through play and tug games.

Emma, Dog Trainer, Dog Walker

Bedfordshire

Ever since Emma brought home her Hungarian Wirehaired Vizsla, Bryson, she has been enthusiastically obsessed with learning about dog training, from gundog training to pet dog training to high level obedience.

Once upon a time, Emma was a client of Fetch Club’s, and we noticed her raw talent and keen eye for detail, as well as passion in that she would go above and beyond to take her own dog’s training to the next level.

Emma is now a full time dog trainer and walker who operates pack walks in Bedford as well as delivering training services.

In her spare time, Emma trains her dog Bryson in gundog training and attends shoots with him during shooting season.

She also has Aggie, a Dobermann she rehomed, and Thora the Dutch Shepherd, both of whom she now enjoys training dog sports with.
Babs has been training dogs from a young age, but it was when she rescued her first dog, Onyx, that the passion for dog training really ignited. She has experience with dogs of all ages, sizes and temperaments.

Babs operates pack walks, one to ones and professional residential training from her home in Suffolk, and travels to spend time with the team when she can during the week.

Babs is passionate about appropriate socialisation and relationship building as a way to help dogs better navigate the human world.
