If you are looking for professional dog training advice in Tring, or cat behaviour support near Berkhamsted and the wider Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire area, our annual Training & Behaviour Surgery returns on Wednesday 13th May 2026 at Hastoe Village Hall.

Running since 2014, these in-person behaviour surgeries give guardians direct access to current behaviour science, ethical training methods, and clinically informed troubleshooting support. The focus is on practical, achievable steps that improve day-to-day life for both animals and their people.
These sessions are led by Hanne Grice, Clinical Animal Behaviourist, certified trainer, educator, and founder of Hanne Grice Pet Training & Behaviour, an award-winning practice established in 2006 and known for handling complex behaviour cases across species.

Training and Behaviour Surgeries are 30-minute in-person troubleshooting consultations designed for people who:
- Feel stuck with an ongoing behaviour challenge
- Want to improve reliability in skills such as recall
- Need structured guidance during adolescence or life changes

- Are seeking ethical, welfare-led behaviour advice grounded in science
Each session provides clear guidance, practical coaching, and realistic next steps you can begin immediately.
