My name is Gemma Ibbotson. I am a full-time dog trainer and founder and owner of Positive Paws Training in South Yorkshire. Dogs have always played a major part in my life, both personally and professionally.

My passion, coupled with my bubbly personality, helps me to create both happy dogs and owners. The top and bottom of it is: I love all dogs. Whether they are big, small, timid or aggressive, I believe they can be trained without using harsh methods.

Positive Reinforcement creates a strong bond between dogs and owners so they can achieve their training goals together. I ensure this happens with all my owner-dog partnerships.

I keep up to date with all new methods and techniques. Positive reinforcement has a scientific element that is constantly been researched, and the results allow me to offer the most up-to-date training to my clients. I became a Victoria Stilwell Positively Dog Trainer in 2014.
