Walks That Build Better Dogs
Group & Training Walks in Winchester & Surrounding Villages
Hi, I'm Rachel, a Professional Dog Walker & Trainer in Winchester, Hampshire
I started Pawsitive Trails from an aspiration to spend more time with my own dogs and to finally chase the dream of having a career with dogs. I love spending time with my Springer Spaniel Phoebe and Labrador Delilah, doing gundog training together.
With a background of History and then Equine Science, it was having my fear reactive Spaniel that led me to the world of ethical, positive dog training and behaviour.
Having dogs should be enjoyable for us and them, but I have experienced and understand how challenging and hard work it can be at times. I am training with the IMDT to become a fully accredited and qualified dog trainer so that soon I can also help you and your dogs live your best lives together and set dogs up to successfully navigate our human world.
Our Services
Group Walks
Our small-group countryside walks are designed with quality over quantity in mind, with a maximum of four dogs per outing. This allows for a calm, well-managed environment where each dog gets the attention they deserve.
Training
Our training walks focus on building confidence, good habits, and real-life skills using kind, reward-based methods, without pressure or unrealistic expectations.
