About Me:
I went to school in Bolton and as a mature student gained a PhD in ethology at Liverpool University and am a member of the Canine and Feline Behaviour Association (CFBA) and the Association for the Study of Animal Behaviour (ASAB).
Television
As a freelance animal behaviourist/pet/media specialist, my work has featured in several UK television documentaries and programmes and I regularly contribute to UK TV and Radio news on related human and pet companionship subjects.
As a presenter and behaviour specialist my work has been featured in BBC 999 Rescue (What to do in the event of a dog attack), Pet Rescue, Granada TV series, 'The Pet Set' and the Animal Planet/Channel 5 series, 'Britain's Worst Pet' working alongside TV vet Trude Mostue. I researched and presented the remarkable documentary, 'The Suicide Bridge Dogs' about dogs that have died leaping off a gothic bridge in Scotland, screened by Channel 5.
Publishing
I have scripted a number of animal information videos on small animals, dogs and cats and contributed to and written many books including: Cats and Kittens, Dogs and Puppies and, 'To The Rescue - Dogs, 'To The Rescue - Cats', guides to providing a rescue or re-homed dog or cat a new life.
