Hannah has never been without dogs. She grew up with Border Collies, training and competing them in Junior Obedience competitions from the age of 10. Hannah has always had a natural understanding of dogs and calmly commands a respect that makes dog training a pleasure for both Hannah and the dogs she works with.
Hannah has an Alaskan Klee Kai called Zuni (pictured), who's breed characteristics include being highly sensitive. She is used to difficult dogs and understands their behaviour. Through her own dogs and many years experience, Hannah has learned and developed effective ways to overcome difficulties with patience and understanding.
Hannah has also studied practical and theory Dog training and Dog Behaviour at the Northern Centre for Canine Behaviour. Under the teachings of internationally renowned expert dog trainer John Rogerson, Hannah has enhanced her natural skills so she can help you work through any problem using positive methods and relationship based training. Hannah's methods are kind and fair, and communicates with dogs on a level that is easy to understand.
With her spare time Hannah enjoys meditation, fostering rescue dogs, teaching yoga and riding her horse, Hera.
Having worked for several kennels and centres in the UK and abroad, including in the Arctic training over 50 Siberian Huskies, Sorcha learned about psychology, body language and the importance of being consistent. After completing John Rogerson's 20-day course for Dog Training and Behaviour in India, she was well-equipped to join Hannah at Canine Needs in February 2014.
Sorcha believes exploring nature and walking with your dog is the most important part of ownership, and that this should never feel stressful or a chore. She has a rescue dog called Pecan.
With her spare time Sorcha enjoys creating art, both through drawing and offering tattoos.
