Emma Greenwood-Petrie
Managing Partner & Trainer
Having left behind a in the corporate world, Emma found her true passion in 2014 and embarked on her dog training career after working intensively with her own rescue dogs.
With help from experienced mentors and much hands on training she quickly impressed customers across the UAE. Her fun attitude and simple techniques mean Emma has quickly become one of Dubai's best loved puppy trainers. Also working with older dogs, Emma's skill lies in finding the best route to a happy and sustainable balance with dogs in the home. Emma especially enjoys working with dogs from shelters all over the country and believes that adopted dogs can be just as good pets as those with the pet shop price tag.
In her spare time, Emma can usually be found alongside her husband and daughter playing in the garden with their 3 dogs Bella, Lily and Arthur or re-reading the Harry Potter books which inspired their names.
