With over two thousand dog behaviour cases behind me, and over 20 years of hands-on experience working full-time in the field, covering all conceivable aspects of dog behaviour, I am every bit as passionate today about creating an understanding and rewarding bond between dog and owner as I was when I first started the business over twenty years ago. As of 2018, I am now the Pet Behaviourist to the UK's largest pet insurer, Petplan UK. This may allow you to claim my fees from your pet health insurer. I have a Master’s Degree from Middlesex University in dog behaviour (Professional Practice in Canine Behaviour and Psychology). I am a full member of the prestigious Canine and Feline Behaviour Association UK, CFBA, and I undertake numerous training courses to ensure that I am fully up to date with innovative dog-related information and practices. I have always enjoyed working closely with people and I have had an affinity with dogs since I was a young boy. My role as a dog behaviourist in one to one training brings these two elements together perfectly. I have always been passionate about dogs since I was a young boy, living in Bristol where I was born and grew up. My love for dogs grew when I won my first working test with my 9-month-old Hungarian Wire-Haired Vizsla, Amber, sparking the idea of running my own dog behaviour practice. This dream was realised when I started Alpha Dog Behaviour Ltd when our daughter Katie was still a baby, and my partner Sara was working full time in Birmingham. As a family, we enjoy living in Bewdley with Ruby the miniature Goldendoodle, alongside the boss of the house, Doris the cat. My partner Sara has now joined me to help run the business smoothly, so I can spend more time with dogs and their owners, and worry less about the admin side of the business. Max being rewarded with love after good behaviour About Nick Jones, MA Hello, I'm Nick Jones MA, an experienced, qualified and full-time dog behaviourist, who specialises in dog behaviour problems and also works as a dog expert witness (dog behaviour assessments and assisting the courts), and representation within the media for dog-related topics.

MY APPROACH My approach to dog behaviour problems is calm and sympathetic, with an emphasis on positive leadership and reward-based dog training techniques. I do not use check chains, prong collars or anything that would distress you or your dog. I do not perform alpha rolls on the dog (placing the dog on its back for submission) or anything else of that nature. Read More... Max and Pip Guarding the Beach! MY APPROACH My work as a dog behaviourist usually involves one to one dog behaviour consultations. The process involves the completion of my enquiry form, which can be found here. This initial contact enables me to understand the dog’s history, the nature of the current problems and the home set-up. This enquiry form can also be used for dog expert witness enquiries. To ensure that you feel confident in me as a dog behaviour specialist, you can view my testimonials here and look at my Google reviews. If your dog’s behavioural problem is covered by insurance, I explain the process of setting up the claim and working with your vet for a referral. In most dog behaviour consultation cases, I come to see you in your home twice and each visit can last between 3-4 hours. On the first visit, I listen to you to fully understand the main concerns that you are experiencing with your dog, and to prioritise the dog behaviour issues before us. I also assess the dog’s behaviour along with his interactions with you to identify the possible causes of the problems and present a range of solutions to resolve your dog’s behavioural issues. This is followed by agreeing to an easy to follow plan to address your concerns, complete with demonstrations and coaching of the relevant dog behaviour techniques and training. I follow up the home visit with clear and simple written details of my time spent with you and the agreed plan. This plan is key to helping you implement and practice the simple behavioural techniques that need to become routine for you to achieve a positive and lasting outcome. The second visit is an opportunity to follow up on your progress with your dog, refine any areas of ongoing concern, and develop enhanced techniques where appropriate. I provide ongoing free email and telephone support which is essential for the best outcome. My methods will allow you to make the improvements you desire, free from shouting or feeling exasperated with your dog, and as a result, all parties remain calm and collected. This often restores harmony to a home that may be at breaking point due to the dog’s behaviour. Yes, things really can get better, and yes I really can help! × WHY CHOOSE ME? In the field of dog behaviour, there is no substitute for experience. I have worked as a successful full-time dog behaviour specialist for over 20 years, and during that time I have carried out over two thousand dog behaviour consultations, addressing all aspects of dog behaviour problems across a wide range of dog breeds. I resolve cases of aggression to dogs and aggression to people regularly, which provides me with a great deal of practical hands-on experience in carrying out in-depth consultations with, or assessments on any breed of dog in my capacity as a dog expert witness. Read More... WHY CHOOSE ME? It is not just cases of aggression to dogs and people that provide my experience, but dealing with other dog behaviour problems such as predatory chasing, and barking, dealing with various fears and phobias in dogs, separation anxiety, recall problems and safety with children or newborn babies and dogs. I am proud to be an independent dog behaviour specialist, running my own business; not bound to follow formulaic methods and practices dictated by a franchise or managing company. Every dog behaviour case is different, and as a result, a unique approach should be established for each case. This can explain why general advice from the internet so often falls short when looking to resolve serious issues with your dog. For your peace of mind, I have full public liability and professional indemnity insurance and details can be provided on request. I have a Master’s degree in dog behaviour from Middlesex University, London (Professional Practice in Canine Behaviour and Psychology) and I undertake ongoing training courses to ensure I remain up-to-date with leading canine behavioural practices and current dog law legislation. I am a full member of the CFBA, the UK’s leading dog behaviour association. This simply means to you that I have had to work hard to fulfil a number of strict criteria to be able to gain their support, thus further ensuring a professional practice and the best outcome for you and your dog. I work to the CFBA’s code of ethics for my profession. As of 2018, I became “The Pet Behaviourist” for the UK's largest and most trusted insurer, Petplan, carrying out regular Facebook live clinics with dog behaviour questions and answers. I have also had the pleasure of creating a number of dog behaviour and training videos with Petplan, which will be released throughout 2018 onwards. Being a full member of the CFBA allows me to work with pet insurance companies, and you may be able to claim my dog behaviour fees from your insurer. This page explains the process in more detail. I can help you as a dog behaviourist for all your dog behaviour problems. I am also a dog expert witness specialising in dangerous dog behaviour assessments throughout the UK, breed type identification and appearance in court as a dog expert witness. I have a proven track record of saving dogs from destruction, and for further reassurance please feel free to read my testimonials from previous clients and solicitors. DOG BEHAVIOURIST NEAR ME: Working as a dog behaviourist in the West Midlands, I am ideally located to address dog behaviour issues throughout the UK. My combination of experience, skills and up-to-date knowledge makes me ideally suited to help you resolve your dog behaviour problems, or to be your dog expert witness to support you and your dog through the legal process for the best possible outcome. I'm based in Bewdley, Worcestershire, which is central to the UK. I am well placed to serve a wide area from my location. In previous years I would go to wherever the work took me (all corners of the UK and sometimes abroad) and I saw the travel as a fun part of the adventure. I still love to get about in my work, but now avoid driving much more than an hour or two away from my home in Bewdley. I still like to use the campervan for further visits, and will often see the customer over two days, back to back, which is an effective approach. As a guide, here are the main counties I now cover: Derbyshire, Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Lancashire, Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, Nottinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Shropshire, Somerset, Staffordshire, Wales, Warwickshire, West Midlands, Worcestershire, over to mid Wales. × EXPLORE MY BLOG * PREVENTING SEPARATION ANXIETY IN DOGS DURING THE CORONAVIRUS LOCKDOWN Prevention of separation anxiety in dogs during the lockdownIn this blog post, we shall be looking at the subject of separation anxiety in dogs and how to prevent it during the period of the Coronavirus lockdown.
