A very cheeky Chihuahua.
The Cheeky Chihuahua was born from a need to provide suitable dog training to help our own dog. We know what it's like to live with a troubled dog, and this is what sets us apart from most others.
If you want dog training, a dog behaviourist, a canine coach, a clicker trainer or even a walker for the dog that can't be walked, you've come to the right place.
Mark Henshaw - The Cheeky Chihuahua
I initially qualified, with a distinction, as a Dog Behaviourist Practitioner with the British College of Canine Studies, in 2015, with whom I also earned a Certificate in Holistic Health for Dogs and a Certificate in Dog Law. I'm not one to sit on my laurels, and I've since studied and completed a Canine Principles diploma as a Canine Coach, and another diploma in Rescue Dog Cognition. I am also a member of the Institute of Modern Dog Trainers, and a qualified MantrailingUK instructor.
"A dog can't talk to us, at least not in the way that humans converse, but they are a mine of information and constantly communicate. Understanding their language, their body signals, and their needs is the foundation of building a strong, trusting relationship. Every wag, every ear position, every subtle shift in posture tells a story. It's our job to listen, to observe, and to respond with patience and empathy."
