Company details
Written by the company
Gemma Fisher is a renowned international dog trainer with over 20 years of experience with many different breeds. She started as most people do, in a village hall learning traditional obedience skills. But she found her energy and enthusiasm was better suited to the sport of agility, and there a love affair was born. A life-long learner, Gemma has a wealth of knowledge to share about all things dog-related. She realised early on in her dog training journey that thinking outside the box and learning from other dog sports could only be a good thing. As far as she's concerned, there is no such thing as one size fits all. She works with the dog in front of her, each as unique as the people that bring them to see her. She shares her life with Border Collies, plus one somewhat unorthodox Working Cocker Spaniel. The Border Collies share her love of work and learning. The Cocker reminds her that life should never be taken too seriously. Gemma is a passionate and enthusiastic speaker who brings lots of energy to her workshops and seminars. She is only interested in shaping dog and human behaviour using kind, positive reinforcement based methods. It is her fervent belief that all creatures are capable of great things - if only they can brought to realise it. Helping people and dogs realise that is her definition of a successful seminar. Join her FREE training group to keep in touch and pick up lots of inspiring tips and tricks: www.facebook.com/groups/fisherfix/ She has a passion for helping dog lovers build better relationships with their dogs so that they can enjoy every moment with them. You will find her online training courses & workshops full to the brim with useful information and ideas to help you solve any dog training problem.

Gemma is a brilliant trainer
Gemma is a brilliant trainer. My husband and I have been training with our two challenging dogs for a couple of years and are members of the Academy She is extremely knowledgeable, motivating and always thinking outside the box. She is fantastic with both dogs and owners and also has a great sense of humour. I leave every lesson with new ideas, filled with confidence and looking forward to doing our homework. The Q and A’s, webinars, website and workshops have all been useful. Thank you Gemma!

I can truly say that Gemma turned our life around
I can truly say that Gemma turned our life around a bit over a year ago when she brought some much needed sound advice about how to manage a busy and demanding dog but especially also how to manage ourselves. We haven't looked back. We have joined the Academy and found it immensely helpful. We have travelled a fair distance to attend workshops (though stopped short of moving house to be nearer) and I really enjoy the Q&A sessions and the 'focus groups'. I love her humour, her no nonsense approach which is based on real understanding, her humanity and her ability to see the best in our dogs. She is just great. My dog and I are so much happier in each other's company. Thank you Gemma!

I’ve learnt so much through Gemma and her boot camps and online group. I wish I lived closer so I could do in person training with her as she would definitely be my first choice! I found her and her group through other recommendations when I was looking for tips on training my somewhat difficult rescue dog and have not been disappointed. Looking forward to engaging more and one day meeting in person - thank you so much already!

Gemma is highly recommended
Gemma offers really great, practical and grounded advice. I am finding her tips and techniques super helpful and wish I had started when my dog was a brand new pup! Gemma was recommended by a friend who found her to be a font of knowledge and I have not been disappointed. Definitely wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.

Gemma is just so enthusiastic 🤩
Gemma is just so enthusiastic, you can’t help but feel you are in the best possible hands. I avoided the idea of using a dog trainer for years but I’m so pleased to have found Gemma. No judgement, just good solid advice and guidance. She has a wealth of knowledge and training videos. We are online academy users so get access to all these training video aids as well as Gemma herself 3 times a week, (which means we can go at our pace as well because life does have a habit of getting in the way!) she has made training achievable for us which I never really thought as a family we had time for. She’s amazing. Highly recommend

Caring, encouraging, knowledgeable
Gemma is patient and empathetic with dogs and their owners. Billy and I enjoy our agility sessions. Neither of us are youngsters (Billy is 12) but Gemma encouraged us to enter competitions and we have quite a few wins, thanks to her solid training and advice. Even in a group she gives individual dog-specific advice. She also has a useful library of guidance videos available online.

Kind, approachable and very knowledgeable
I have 2 blind dogs and Gemma was totally honest with me about her experience with them. I am very impressed with Gemma’s online and in person training methods and her wealth of knowledge. She has a lovely manner with both dogs and people alike. Totally recommend her to anyone who wants genuine help and support.

Gemma has helped me to understand my dog Lola ☺️
Gemma has helped me to understand my pup Lola and shown us how to love and trust each other as we learn together. I've used the online resources and in-person/dog ones too. Gemma enjoys what she does and it shows through in the passion she brings to our sessions.

Supportive empathetic dog trainer
I really do not know where I would be with my anxious spaniel without Gemma's help and guidance! Gemma's professional, personable, empathetic and knowledgeable training sessions have helped me to understand the emotion behind my dog's behaviour and therefore help us to move positively forward using kind methods. I highly recommend Gemma.

Amazing dog trainer
Really enjoyed training with Gemma, she has transformed my nervous/worries collie to a confident and calm dog. Also my dog (and myself) really enjoyed the agility training with Gemma, she feels safe, comfortable in Gemma’s class environment. Many thanks Gemma.

Truly understands dogs and owners!
Friendly, compassionate and full of empathy for both dog and owner, Gemma really understands how our dog’s brains work ( and ours!). Lessons are fun, innovative and different every week.
