Confident Canine® - The Holistic Gundog Specialist

Balancing both ends of the lead.

I'm Nina Fotara, The Holistic Gundog Specialist. I work with sensitive guardians and their gundogs through the Regulation First Model™, an approach that begins with the nervous system, not with obedience drilling.

A dog who can't regulate can't learn. A dog who can, can learn anything.

This channel is for guardians who want something different. Force-free, relationship-led, calm, no pressure. Training that works with a sensitive nervous system, not against it.

If your gundog can't settle, won't recall, pulls on the lead, or switches off when you leave the garden, this is work that meets that from the inside out.
