Laura Swanson, Head Coach
Laura graduated from Swansea University with a degree in Psychology. Due to growing up with a dog that had behavioural needs, she chose to study the behaviour of dogs in her final year project. Throughout her three years at university Laura spent most of her spare time looking after two miniature Daschunds, which spurred her passion to learn more about training dogs.
After university, Laura’s passion to work with dogs grew further, so she spent a lot of her spare time volunteering at doggy day cares, shadowing behavioural consultations and being around dogs as often as she could! This also included volunteering as an Assistant Trainer at local reward based training classes, where she thoroughly enjoyed teaching and helping owners learn how to understand their dogs. This is what led Laura to join Dogs School Surrey where she is enjoying meeting all of you and your furry 4 legged friends!
