A bit about me!
Megan Burnett BSc (Hons) MSc is a qualified, passionate and professional Clinical Animal Behaviourist currently based in Lincoln, U.K.
Dogs have always been a huge part of my life and I have dedicated my career (a lot of time and money!) to understanding how they think and behave. I am qualified with a BSc (Hons) degree in Animal Behaviour and Welfare from the University of Lincoln, and went on to specialise in Clinical Animal Behaviour, completing my Master’s degree under the supervision of some of the country’s leading veterinary behaviour experts. This is one of only three courses in the U.K. approved by the Association for the Study of Animal Behaviour to become a Certified Clinical Animal Behaviourist!
I am also a provisional member of the Association of Pet Behaviour Counsellors (APBC). Provisional members have demonstrated that they have the appropriate level of knowledge and understanding for the professional role of Clinical Animal Behaviourist (CAB). Megan is currently gaining the practical experience necessary to be assessed as a CAB and therefore become a full member of the APBC. The APBC supports its provisional members undertaking behaviour consultations.
I also have a wealth of experience in caring for and training a variety of breeds and temperaments for safe rehoming in a rescue environment and spent many years during university walking dogs and pet sitting.
​
I believe that training shouldn't feel like training; it should be easy and fun for all! My aim is for everyone to feel supported when experiencing challenging behaviours with their dog, and to help to improve their relationship.

​
Two very important members of the team are Toby and Lilah!
​
Toby and Lilah are my wonderful stooge dogs. If we work together on your dog's behaviour towards other dogs, you might meet these two for practical sessions!
​
They have helped lots of nervous or anxious dogs gain confidence around other dogs or learn how to interact appropriately. Don't worry, they are paid generously in walks and treats!
