About us

I’m Emma Taylor and I offer fun, practical dog training and support.

​

I’ll work with you and support you to help you master the skills you need to help your dog live a happy life as part of the family – our aim is the perfect ‘pub dog’ who’s happy to go anywhere and take life in the real world as it comes.

​

I teach owners to use ethical, positive and reward-based training methods, but I know that one size does not fit all when it comes to dogs, or their owners. I look at the big picture and find the solutions that will work best for you and your dog. Even in group training, I keep class sizes small, so the approach can still be tailored to each individual dog and their owner.

​

Rat Pack Dog Services is named after my own pack of terriers. It was because of one of my dogs, Bertie, and his reactivity issues that I first became interested in the dog training world.  I sought help from several trainers and eventually found what worked best for us. I haven’t looked back since! 

As I have experienced owning challenging dogs myself, I know what a lonely place that can be and how valuable it is to have judgement-free support.

​

I have a wide-range of experience with a variety of breeds and behaviours, group dynamics and class environments.
