OUR TEAM

My name is Dagmara and I am a founder of GooDog Training Academy.   I have always felt a deep connection with nature and I felt urged to gain a better understanding of effective and respectful communication with animals, dogs in particular. I have built my knowledge through extensive training in the fields of canine behaviour and nutrition.    My technique is based on individual approach and respect. I am experienced in working with challenging and aggressive behaviour, addressing issues relating to bad habits, withdrawal, lack of trust or managing energetic and strong willed dogs.   I believe and can prove to you that every dog can be a GooDog. A dog that can behave well in every situation.   Let me help you and your dog become the true friend and companion you want him to be.

"I'm Siún (s-h-o-o-n) and I have been a registered veterinary nurse (RVN) for the past 7 years. I studied a bachelor's of science degree at Dundalk Institute of Technology from 2013 to 2016.   When I graduated in November 2016, I moved to Surrey in the UK where I worked as a ward nurse at Fitzpatrick referrals (aka The Supervet). Eventually home sickness brought me back to Kilkenny in 2018, I was missing my dogs far too much and I couldn't be away from them any longer!  I have always loved animals especially dogs! My best friend in the world was my golden retriever Labrador X, Óir. I was 10 when he came into my life and I trained him to jump obstacle courses, bark on command, play hide & seek and do many more fun tricks!   I have always been so interested in canine behaviour and training since I was young."
