About Nick

Hello, I'm Nick Jones MA, an experienced, qualified and full-time dog behaviourist, who specialises in dog behaviour problems and also works as a dog expert witness (dog behaviour assessments and assisting the courts), and representation within the media for dog-related topics. With over two thousand dog behaviour cases behind me, and over 20 years of hands-on experience working full-time in the field, covering all conceivable aspects of dog behaviour, I am every bit as passionate today about creating an understanding and rewarding bond between dog and owner as I was when I first started the business over twenty years ago. As of 2018, I am now the Pet Behaviourist to the UK's largest pet insurer, Petplan UK. This may allow you to claim my fees from your pet health insurer.

I have a Master’s Degree from Middlesex University in dog behaviour (Professional Practice in Canine Behaviour and Psychology). I am a full member of the prestigious Canine and Feline Behaviour Association UK, CFBA, and I undertake numerous training courses to ensure that I am fully up to date with innovative dog-related information and practices.

I have always enjoyed working closely with people and I have had an affinity with dogs since I was a young boy. My role as a dog behaviourist in one to one training brings these two elements together perfectly. I have always been passionate about dogs since I was a young boy, living in Bristol where I was born and grew up. My love for dogs grew when I won my first working test with my 9-month-old Hungarian Wire-Haired Vizsla, Amber, sparking the idea of running my own dog behaviour practice. This dream was realised when I started Alpha Dog Behaviour Ltd when our daughter Katie was still a baby, and my partner Sara was working full time in Birmingham. As a family, we enjoy living in Bewdley with Ruby the miniature Goldendoodle, alongside the boss of the house, Doris the cat. My partner Sara has now joined me to help run the business smoothly, so I can spend more time with dogs and their owners, and worry less about the admin side of the business.

My Approach

My approach to dog behaviour problems is calm and sympathetic, with an emphasis on positive leadership and reward-based dog training techniques. I do not use check chains, prong collars or anything that would distress you or your dog. I do not perform alpha rolls on the dog (placing the dog on its back for submission) or anything else of that nature. Read More...

Why Choose Me?

In the field of dog behaviour, there is no substitute for experience. I have worked as a successful full-time dog behaviour specialist for over 20 years, and during that time I have carried out over two thousand dog behaviour consultations, addressing all aspects of dog behaviour problems across a wide range of dog breeds. I resolve cases of aggression to dogs and aggression to people regularly, which provides me with a great deal of practical hands-on experience in carrying out in-depth consultations with, or assessments on any breed of dog in my capacity as a dog expert witness.

Unruly Behaviour in the Home and Your Dog
