Welcome to Problem Paws !

Welcome, Problem Paws is owned and operated by Julie Hamblin a very experienced and highly qualified companion animal consultant behaviourist and 1 to 1 professional dog trainer, based in Croxteth Country Park in Liverpool, Merseyside covering the North West and beyond.

I began my training with a comprehensive certificated course in canine care and behaviour from the Cambridge Institute of Dog Behaviour & Training backed and moderated by Middlesex University, learning from tutors such as Colin Tennant, Joe Clarricoates and my personal tutor – Phil Watson of the Anglian Wolf Society. I then progressed to the COAPE DipCABT Advanced Diploma course backed by the National Open College Network, trained by tutors such as Peter Neville, Val Strong and Robert Falconer-Taylor as some of the country’s leading authorities on animal behaviour and led by Professor Ray Coppinger. The course is an advanced award in the practical aspects of companion animal behaviour and training, and I passed with distinction.

As part of our code of practice I continue to train and remain up to date in all aspects of companion animal behaviour as well as regular participation in informative and educational sessions with world renowned behaviourists such as, Turid Rugaas a behaviourist & author from Norway, Sarah Fisher’s “Tellington Touch” techniques, David Ryan’s recent canine instinct and behaviour seminar, Nick Thompson’s holistic approach to veterinary science and many more…

Just some of the services I provide.
  • Sessions at your own home

  • One to one obedience training
