Connected Canines is the culmination of a lifelong passion for dogs for Sue Watkins, owner and trainer at the firm. She has turned her ability to train and connect with dogs into a business that enables her to train other peoples dogs, turning them into beautifully responsive gundogs, companions and reliable working dogs. Working with dogs of all breeds and backgrounds, Sue enjoys her job immensely and it shows in the impressive amount of qualifications and accreditations she possesses. Your dogs really are the star of the show but Sue’s methods are the key to unlocking their potential.

Connected Canines methods are based on key principles of development of the bond between dog and owner, building a confidence in each other and then learning skills with positive, science based training methods.  Sue is fully insured and DBS cleared to give you confidence in her and all training adheres to The Association of Pet Dog Trainers to further underscore her professionalism in all areas of learning, training and behaviours.

Connected Canines has a purpose made secure training field for you and your dog, where you can be professionally guided by Sue on a One to One Basis or within a group class.  As Sue regularly updates her knowledge base and skills by attending seminars and workshops herself, you can be sure that she has access to all the latest innovations in training and behaviour.  Thus giving you and your dog the best of tried and tested methods with the latest methods at her fingertips too.

Sue specialises in Labradors and Spaniels, turning them into fabulous, reliable and skillful gundogs.  It really is a passion of hers since she was a child.  Working with these types of dogs is a joy and Sue can help you to bring on your gundogs to a very high standard.  Having passed the Gun Dog Trainers Academy and gained her accreditation with them, she knows exactly what it takes to make a really good gun dog.  Her role as Trainer and Assessor for The Gun Dog Club shows you the level to which Sue aspires to and reaches with her gun dog training.
