TOGETHER WE WILL ERADICATE AVERSIVE METHODS

Across the nation, and the world, there is a fight happening behind the scenes. A fight consisting of qualified professionals in an unregulated industry - canine behaviour and training.

Did you know that ANYONE is able to call themselves an animal trainer or behaviourist? Did you know the two fields are different? At Pluto's we have teamed up with some of the top canine trainers and behaviourists in the South West to educate pet guardians to make informed decisions, thus eliminating aversive, unregulated people who are causing irrevocable damage to our dogs.

 

This page is a collaboration between Pluto's and these wonderful qualified professionals of Torbay listed below. Through continued partnerships and alliances we will eradicate unregulated people and aversive methods once and for all!

Thank you Donna Bond, Sally Lewis, Lucy Aalders, Julie Shepard, Claire Radmore, Ruth Haynes, & Andy Hale
