Fiona started her career working with horses, spending five years working as a riding instructor and judge with a special interest in the rehabilitation of difficult horses. She then went on to work for the RSPCA as a re-homing co-ordinator and later as Branch Secretary for Mid Lincolnshire.

After studying Animal Science and Kennel and Cattery management at De Montfort University she opened her own training and behaviour establishment in Lincolnshire which she ran for seven years before joining the Animal Behaviour Centre team in February 2002. She is a long standing member of The APDT (association of Pet Dog Trainers) and a full member of The CFBA (|Canine & Feline Behaviour Association).

Fiona’s current menagerie includes; two horses; Paddy and Bertha. Four dogs; Enzo (Doberman cross GSD), Noux and Sancho, (Australian Cattle dogs) and the latest addition Orejas another Cattle dog who is profoundly deaf! There are also four rescue ex-battery hens; Emily, Beyonce, Bunty and Prudence all of whom are clicker trained! Fiona is a regular contributor in veterinary publications as well as being a popular speaker at veterinary congresses.
