Stanley is the founder of Beyond Your Lead. Stanley is equipped to resolve a multitude of behaviour problems, from basic training issues to aggression towards people and dogs.

Stanley specialises in high-energy dogs but has also worked with many varieties of temperament and has worked with dogs for close to ten years. During this time, Stanley has gained a mass of knowledge about the varied behavioural problems dogs can show.

Stanley spends much of his time gaining knowledge both practically and theoretically, taking time to participate in both courses and workshops to expand his knowledge, and is always looking for developing ways of overcoming behavioural issues. Stanley believes in an open mindset to behaviour modification and treating the individual in front of him, with no “one method fixes all” attitude, he can adapt to the specific problem the dog is displaying and effectively find a practical and realistic solution to the problem.

Stanley believes in developing the dog and owner relationship to the highest level, ensuring you and your dog have a healthy and trusting relationship where the appropriate rules and boundaries are in place.

Stanley has worked with a multitude of animal welfare organisations and rescue centres helping to modify the behaviour of rescue dogs and giving advice to the owners of recently re-homed rescue dogs, rescue dogs are a passion of Stanley's, and he finds great fulfilment in giving a dog a second chance after a poor start.
