Hi, I'm Nicola, a lifelong animal lover and dog mummy to rescue mixed breed Fred and English Toy terrier Nala.

Animals have always been my passion, so after school, I completed the BTEC National Diploma in Animal Management. I completed work experience at Longleat Safari Park, a husky sledge dog kennel and a dog grooming parlour. I studied dog grooming at the Brinsbury campus and have been a groomer for over 10 years.
My first dog was a Miniature schnauzer called Jack and it was Jack and my rescue dog Fred that got me interested in dog training to be the best dog mummy possible. After completing a Canine body language and Puppy specialist course I was addicted! I completed more courses and became a certified dog trainer and Delightful Dogs Dog Training was born!

You will not be short of love or passion for your puppy or dog when you come to me for training. I love animals so much! My holidays in previous years have revolved around them too, including an Africa safari in Kenya, a Polar bear safari in Churchill Canada and volunteering at a panda sanctuary in China and a brown bear sanctuary in Romania.
