Vikki has owned and trained her own dogs all her life but had a career change from being a successful Chartered Surveyor in her 40s. She now eats, sleeps, studies, and breaths anything dog when she is not juggling life as a single mum to her amazing 3 children.
Having grown up with multiple dogs of various breeds, Vikki's first own dog was a Cavalier called Cindy who was given to her on her 8th birthday. Cindy was her first introduction to training. Since then, Vikki has owned and competed various breeds, and currently has a Field Spaniel, a Sprocker Spaniel and a Terrier.
Now in her 50s, Vikki is qualified with The Institute of Modern Dog Trainers (IMDT), The Agility Club, Scentwork UK, Dog Training College and Pet Professional Guild (PPG). She also holds both human and canine first aid qualifications, is DBS cleared, and continues undertake regular CPD and study for further professional qualifications.
Vikki has considerable experience working with rescues dogs and is the lead trainer for Hungary Hearts Dog Rescue, meeting all 300+ dogs each year as they arrive from Hungary and providing support to the new adopters.
Additionally, many local vets, groomers, dog walkers and day care providers also recommend clients regularly to Cleaver Dog Training.
Millie is a stunning rare breed Field Spaniel who was bon in 2014. She is generally very laid back and likes mouthing better than lazing around on her bed in the van.
Heading towards her twilight years, Millie would rather look back on her competitive years, when she competed at Crufts and used to do rally and agility training, than do too much formal training and competing now! She still does enjoy showing off her skills occasionally at Heelwork to Music events but would prefer to leave most of this to her rather more energetic and overzealous partners in crime, Hettie and Pixie.
Millie's favourite treats are dehydrated chicken stomachs and her number one toy is a dangly soft cow!
Beloved Hettie is an extremely intelligent terrier who was welcomed into Vikki's family totally untrained in 2016 when she was 15 months old.
Hettie adores training and will take every opportunity to show off her extensive trick repertoire. She has been competing in agility, rally and more recently started Heelwork to Music. Being the social butterfly that she is, she also loves to do demonstrations at schools, care homes and public events and is loved by everyone who meets her.
Her natural chew of choice is Skippers Wolf Fish skin twists and she does also love to play with a squeaky ball but food will usually win over a toy with Hettie!
Pixie is a beautiful but crazy Sprocker Spaniel who has had to overcome huge challenges in life after being bred by a puppy farm in 2018.
Despite various behavioural and medical issues, she is a totally adored member of the team and excels as a photography model.
Due to her anxieties, no one ever expected to see Pixie out competing but with sympathetic training, she now enjoys, Online Rally, Heelwork to Music clinics and competitions. Pixie's energetic antics and love for digging, showcase her lively personality.
Pixie's favourite treat is 100% Goat JR Pate and her best toy is a cardboard box to destroy!
