Accreditation

 

Unfortunately there is no regulation in Ireland to determine who has the relevant skills, know how and education to call themselves a dog trainer or behaviourist. To ensure best practices at all times, we must, therefore, turn to external accreditation bodies that test proficiency not just in knowledge but practical ability. The two leading such accreditation bodies in Ireland are the Association for Pet Dog Trainers (APDT) and the Institute for Modern Dog Trainers (IMDT). All of our trainers will be accredited by either one these bodies or a suitable alternative. 

These organisations not only check initial skills, but also insist on continuing learning and development to maintain your credentials.

IMDT

Jenny is a full member of IMDT (Distinction category) and is continually attending courses and seminars to keep her skills up to date. This includes both dog training and behaviour modification work.

APDT

Jenny is also a full Professional member of APDT Ireland. As with IMDT, yearly CPD work is required to maintain accreditation and appropriate skills level.

ScentworkUK

Jenny is a fully listed trainer of ScentworkUK's  Levels 1 - 8 competition scentwork.
