User:Michele Boys

Michele has been training dogs successfully for 16 years. She obtained a 1st grade honours degree with the British Institute of Professional Dog Trainers and achieved the award of Beta Junior dog of the Year in competitive obedience with her working sheep dog Shells Dream Come True.

Michele has formed and runs a successful dog club, Canine Crusaders, which is dedicated to motivational training, an approach which ensures a good relationship between dog and handler. Four Dalmatians currently attend and participate with great enthusiasm! Michele runs two motivational weekends a year and handlers come from far afield.

For the fist time as part of the Carriage Dog Trials training weekend, Michele ran one entirely for Dalmatians. Michele has been involved with the trials since their inception and her knowledge of obedience rules has been invaluable.

She judged the Road dog classes at the national Trials in 2005 and 2006.
