Simon Boyd - Dog Whisperer

About Me

Hello! I’m Simon Boyd, a professional dog whisperer with over 20 years of experience helping people work with, and change their dogs. I specialise in helping dogs and their owners build strong, trusting relationships through calm, assertive leadership. My approach focuses on creating trust and respect by setting clear rules, boundaries, and limitations both in the home, and in the outside world.

What is Dog Whispering?

Dog whispering is more than just training—it’s a communication-based approach to understanding and guiding dogs. The term “dog whisperer” comes from the idea of listening and responding to a dog’s natural instincts and body language, rather than relying solely on commands or corrections. It was originally coined in relation to the work of Monty Roberts, known as the “horse whisperer”.

The goal is to create a mutual understanding and respect between dog and owner. By using calm, confident leadership and consistent boundaries, dogs learn what is expected of them in a positive, non-confrontational way. This helps reduce stress, fear, and unwanted behaviours, while strengthening the bond between dog and human.

My Approach

I believe every dog responds best to leadership that is calm, confident, and consistent. Through structured guidance and positive communication, I help dogs understand expectations while building trust and respect. My method is based on rules, boundaries, and limitations, which create a peaceful, respectful environment for both dogs and their owners.
