Trusted professionals & thoughtful referrals

At Yellowtail, I believe good training doesn’t exist in isolation.

Dogs and their people are often best supported by a network of skilled, ethical professionals — from trainers and behaviourists to groomers, vets, walkers and other specialists.

This Recommendations Hub is a growing space where I’ll be sharing trusted contacts and resources that I genuinely rate and would feel comfortable recommending to my own clients.

Why this matters

No single professional can be the right fit for every dog.

This page exists to:

  • Support owners beyond one service

  • Encourage informed, ethical choices

  • Build a stronger, more connected dog community

Because better outcomes happen when we work together.

What you’ll find here (as the hub grows)

Over time, this page will include recommendations for:

  • Accredited trainers and behaviourists

  • Professional groomers

  • Dog walkers and day care providers

  • Enrichment and wellbeing specialists

  • Puppy, adolescent and behaviour resources

  • Services I don’t personally offer, but trust

Each recommendation will be shared with context, not just a name — so you understand who they’re best suited for and why I recommend them.

A note on transparency

Recommendations will be based on:

  • Professional standards and ethics

  • Alignment with force-free, welfare-led approaches

  • Positive experiences from clients or trusted peers

  • A shared focus on supporting dogs and owners thoughtfully

For professionals in the industry

I strongly believe in community over competition.

If you’re a trainer, behaviourist, groomer or dog professional and you’d like to:

  • Connect

  • Share experiences

  • Talk through cases (ethically and appropriately)

  • Explore referrals or collaboration

…I’m always happy to have a conversation.

This hub will continue to evolve as my network grows, and I’m open to hearing from people who share similar values and standards.
