Meet Karen

‘Most Patient Dog Behaviourist’ in the South East 2022  ‘Dog Trainer of the Year’ Hampshire 2021/22

I love helping dogs so much that I left a 20-year career in fashion PR to retrain as a dog behaviourist and trainer. I am fully qualified and accredited as a Dog Behaviourist by the IMDT – the Institute of Modern Dog Trainers, and I’m proud to be vet-recommended.

No two dogs are the same and I approach each one uniquely and with empathy. My mindset extends to the dog’s owner,
 too; building a bond between ownerand dog
makes training a pleasure for you both.

Why Choose Maher & Hound

At Maher & Hound Dog Training, Karen blends expertise with passion to offer tailored training solutions that foster a harmonious bond between you and your dog. Karen’s commitment to positive reinforcement and individualised care sets her apart, ensuring that every session is as rewarding for your dog as it is for you.

Given the dedication required to provide each dog and their owner with the personalised attention and training they need, I am only able to work with a limited number of clients at any given time. I sincerely believe in offering my services only when I am confident in my ability to deliver the outcomes you’re seeking for your dog.

If you’re genuinely committed to improving your dog’s behaviour and enhancing your relationship with them, I encourage you to schedule a consultation call with me. This will give us a chance to discuss your dog’s specific needs, your training goals, and explore how we can work together to achieve something you’ll be proud of.
