About

Veterinarian and separation anxiety trainer

Working as a veterinarian in a shelter for over 30 years, Leonie has developed considerable experience with dogs and their behavior issues. More specifically, she has focused on canine behavior training and supporting dogs with anxiety issues in the behavior department for the last few years. In 2018, Leonie completed a diploma in canine behavior science and technology (Dip CBST) and recently finished a certificate in separation anxiety training (CSAT), providing effective dog anxiety solutions.

Fun with the dogs

Leonie enjoys spending time with her family and especially loves her border collie rescue dogs. Over recent years, she has engaged in canine behavior training, participating in canine freestyle and K9 Nose Work®, which has been an enormous source of fun. Additionally, she's explored dog anxiety solutions, including separation anxiety training, to help her dogs feel more comfortable.

IS MY PUPPY/DOG COPING WITH BEING ALONE?

Separation anxiety is an extremely common behavioral disorder among puppies and dogs, characterized by genuine panic attacks when they are left alone. This condition often leads to destructive behaviors, elimination issues, and excessive barking or whining, indicating that your dog is struggling to manage their feelings of fear or panic. Unfortunately, separation anxiety is not something that resolves on its own; in fact, it can worsen over time without proper intervention. Implementing effective canine behavior training and exploring dog anxiety solutions, such as separation anxiety training, can help alleviate these distressing symptoms.

Reviews

It's been an amazing journey with Leonie, who has provided invaluable support through her canine behavior training. She has helped me so incredibly much with my 1-year-old pup Gracie. I've seen such a difference since we started, and now I feel much less stressed. With her dog anxiety solutions, I have a greater peace of mind when leaving Gracie alone or taking her out in public. I couldn’t thank Leonie enough for all her hard work, especially with the separation anxiety training that has made a significant impact on both Gracie and me! We appreciate it loads.

Leonie's process for canine behavior training simply works! We were unsure of how to address our dog's separation anxiety, which caused her to spiral into despair with howls and pacing. Once Leonie began coaching us with her dog anxiety solutions, we started to make small steps that snowballed into progress we never imagined. Leonie is completely committed to transforming not only our pup's life but ours as well through her separation anxiety training. We wholeheartedly recommend her services.

‘Dr. Leonie was an incredibly invaluable guide to navigating my dog’s intense separation anxiety. She consistently went above and beyond, supporting my concerns and checking in every step of the way. With her expert canine behavior training and dog anxiety solutions, I watched my dog improve immensely. The skills, exercises, and techniques that she taught during the separation anxiety training set me and my dog up for independent success. I can’t recommend her and her skills enough.’
