About Waggle

Welcome to Waggle London

Sarah

Hi! My name is Sarah Stillwell and I am the founder of Waggle dog training and behaviour.

‘As an Assessed and Qualified IMDTB Member of The Institute of Modern Dog Trainers (www.imdt.uk.com) I am proud to display the UK Dog Behaviour & Training Charter symbol’

I have completed the highest certificate with IMDT, Working with Canine Behaviour: Analysis and Application, Level 5.  IMDT is the leading education, qualification and membership body within dog training and behaviour set up by Steve Mann who wrote the latest bestseller Easy Peasy Puppy Squeezy!

I am proud to hold a professional qualification with L.E.G.S.® Applied Ethology Family Dog Mediation® course by Kim Brophey (www.dogdoorcanineservices.com).  Brophey is an award winning canine behaviour consultant and author of “Meet your dog”.  Using cutting edge research, the course has provided me with a ground-breaking system, using four comprehensive elements: learning, environment, genetics and self.  The system identifies what you dog is struggling with, why and how to fix it in the most humane way, whilst respecting the dogs specific breed motivators and traits.

I addition, I am a Master Trainer with the Guild of Dog Trainers and have achieved the Higher Certificate in Professional Dog Training together with the Higher Certificate in Dog Behaviour and Psychology with CIDBT (Cambridge Institute of Dog Behaviour & Training).

This year, I have completed the Master Course in Dog Aggression, with the world leader in dog aggression Michael Shikashio.  This course was extremely informative and has given me a deeper insight into dog aggression, along with more possible solutions to this behaviour.

This year, has also seen the launch of my online courses that contain all the tips I have learnt over the years – making them really great value!  Being dyslexic, I like to simplify dog training and behaviour, cutting out unnecessary jargon.  There are five courses in total covering puppy/dog obedience, reactivity, separation anxiety and lead walking.  Check them out https://sarah-s-school407.teachable.com/

I have been lucky enough to gain experience with some of the most highly regarded trainers and behaviourists in London.  This has enabled me to develop a range of techniques.  All dogs are different and one technique will not work with all dogs.

I can assist with all your puppy and dog training needs as well as discuss behaviour concerns including; puppy biting, toilet training, lead walking, recall, aggression, excessive barking, separation anxiety to name but a few.  Please check out my Dog Training and Behaviour page for more information.

I have also  trained in Canine and Feline First Aid.  I love working with dogs so much that I am continuously learning more about these intelligent creatures, developing my skills and learning new techniques.

I am based in Walthamstow, however I cover the many areas including Hackney so it is always best to check but I am currently operating in Chingford, Highams Park, Stoke Newington, Newington Green, Stamford Hill, Clapton, Springfield, Hackney Downs, Dalston, London Fields, Clapton, Cambridge Heath, Bethnal Green, Haggerston, Old Street, Shoreditch, Liverpool Street, De Beauviour, Hoxton, Canonbury, Angel, Highbury & Islington.

Fully-insured, DBS checked and hold certificates in Canine First Aid.
