About Coached Canine

Our mission is to help you build a calmer, more connected relationship with your dog through positive reinforcement and evidence based behaviour coaching tailored to your dog’s individual needs.

I’m Hayley, the trainer behind Coached Canine. I work with dogs of all ages, supporting everything from early foundations through to ongoing behaviour challenges. My approach combines thoughtful behavioural assessments with practical, realistic training strategies that help dogs build confidence, calmness, and essential life skills while ensuring owners feel supported and confident every step of the way.

With over five years of study in animal health and behaviour, I’m deeply passionate about helping owners understand what their dogs are really communicating. When dogs are guided with clarity, consistency, and kindness, meaningful and lasting behaviour change becomes possible.

I’ve spent more than four years working in the animal industry as a veterinary nurse, supporting dogs daily through care, handling, and behaviour in a clinical environment. Alongside this, I’ve developed puppy school programs and one on one training services focused on clear communication, emotional regulation, and skills that translate into real life.

With formal qualifications in animal studies, veterinary nursing, and animal training and behaviour, I bring an evidence informed understanding of canine health, communication, and behaviour into every session.

Better behaviour starts with understanding.
