About me
Hi, my name is Vicki. I'm a qualified dog trainer (FdSc in Canine Behaviour and Training with Merit). My classes are based in Westleigh, North Devon.
Canine Connexion was founded in 2016 in Normandy, France, where I taught classes and fostered rescue dogs for three years before returning to England in 2019. In 2019, Canine Connexion moved to North Devon, where we have been ever since.
I regularly undertake training courses with the IMDT and Scentwork UK.
