What makes the Dog and Hound different? We do.

 

I'm Katie- founder, nutritionist and behaviourist here at the Dog and Hound Boutique. For me, working with dogs isn't a hobby or side project- it's a passion I've dedicated my entire professional life to.

​​

I provide accessible specialist support for dogs and their owners- backed by years of study, accreditations and practical experience. I am a member of both the National Institute of Canine Ethics and Raw Feeding Veterinary Society- but my practice is about more than just certifications and professional endorsements. I am, first and foremost, a dog owner myself and an advocate for the rights and welfare of all dogs.

​

Professional understanding of canine physiology, nutrition and neuro-chemistry has changed dramatically in the last 30 years and with so much conflicting information at our fingertips it can be difficult to know who to trust. That's why I am always studying, always researching, doing everything in my power to give your dogs the best and most comprehensive care. I only advocate research backed, scientifically supported training methodologies and nutritious, species appropriate foods.​​

​​

It goes without saying that dogs are welcome at our Behaviour and Nutrition Hub here in Stewarton. Our space isn't just dog friendly, it's completely dog centric.

 

My family, our community, our collaborators and the contributions they provide are at the heart of Dog and Hound Boutique- supporting me to provide a programme of free services and events for anxious or reactive dogs and their owners.
