Trained For Life is based near Marlborough, Wiltshire and was set up by
Lez Graham at the beginning of 2007.
Lez' focus is to show people how, through changing their own behaviour and attitude
towards their dog, their dogs behaviour and attitude towards them will change. This
then starts the process of training a well mannered, obedient and respectful dog...
whether this is in the home, on a walk or wherever you and your dog find yourselves.
By expecting your dog to be well behaved and then enforcing it positively and in
a way your dog understands, you end up with a dog that is looking to you for guidance
and leadership.
Lez is the Education & Development Officer for the
Guild of Dog Trainers.
Lez has studied dog behaviour / psychology with two colleges, trained and competed
her dogs in obedience in the UK and New Zealand and in gundog trials in NZ and has
worked in the complementary health care arena with different animals, but mainly
dogs. As well as competition obedience and gundog work Lez has trained her own dogs
for Agility and Search and Rescue.
Lez holds a certificate in canine psychology, is a full member of the Canine and
Feline Behaviour Association
(CFBA), a master trainer with the Guild of Dog Trainers
(GoDT)
and is currently studying for her Masters Degree in Dog Behaviour & Psychology at
Middlesex University.
