Owned by Emma Hollis, her affinity with dogs has been with her since birth. All her life she has had dogs and can never imagine life without a dog by her side.
Personally she has owned and grown up with all shapes and sizes from Rottweilers, collies, jack Russell and the tinniest toy poodles, including her new pup Ruby.
She has over 7 years experience in the pet industry and has been mentored in agility by none other than our founder Emma.
She also has a level 3 advanced extended diploma in animal management and will be using qualified trainers for classes and home visits.
Ellie has spent her life around dogs and horses and started off as a dog walker and then found her passion for training dogs.
Ellie successfully completed our accredited Spirit Dog Trainer Qualification and since then has been on an adventure of learning and enjoys all her CPD.
Eleanor has always had a passion for working with animals since a young age and love’s being around them. They interested her so much that she decided to undertake a degree in Animal Management specialising in Pet Behaviour and Welfare at ARU Writtle. She has recently graduated and is proud to look back on all of the knowledge and skills she has acquired over the 3 years of the course.
Dog behaviour and training played a big factor in the degree and led her to a future career as a dog trainer. Eleanor is now studying our accredited Spirit Dog Trainer Qualification to compliment her knowledge and practical experience and is looking forward to training all types of dogs and working with owners to help strengthen their bond with their pets.

From playful puppies to seasoned seniors, our methods get results. Don't just take our word for it—see what fellow Essex dog owners are saying about their training journey.
I’ve done agility with Emma for over a year, but recently attended her recall workshop to help my rescue have more off-lead freedom. Everything she taught made perfect sense! The simple but fun exercises are already getting great results and I am seeing huge improvements in his recall. It’s such a joy to see him enjoying his freedom safely. Thank you for your continued support and fantastic, effective training methods, Emma! 🐾

The trainers are lovely and always have time for you if you need a little extra support.
We thoroughly recommend Essex Dog Training / Essential Canine Life Skills.

Our whippet is 1 year old now and he still absolutely loves his weekly training sessions! When we started, we just wanted to get the basics right, but it’s become his favourite part of the week. The trainers, especially Chloe, make it such a kind and welcoming group that he gets excited as soon as we arrive. The classes keep him engaged and thinking, and it’s been so rewarding to see him thrive in such a positive environment.
