Dogs that overreact to everyday triggers like people, dogs, or environments and struggle to stay calm.
Dogs who feel easily overwhelmed and need gentle, confidence-building support.
Households looking for clear guidance to create calm, structure, and harmony with their puppy.
Training isn’t just about teaching behaviours.
It’s about helping dogs feel confident in their world, and helping owners communicate clearly, calmly, and consistently.
At Clear Minds Dog Training, I work with dogs and their people to create understanding, focus, and trust. When a dog’s mind is clear, learning becomes easier, behaviour becomes more reliable, and everyday life feels calmer for everyone involved.
Rather than using rigid, one-size-fits-all methods, my approach adapts to the dog in front of me. I consider temperament, motivation, environment, and emotional state – because real progress comes from meeting dogs where they are, not forcing them into a system that doesn’t suit them.
My role isn’t just to train your dog.
It’s to guide you, support you, and give you the tools to move forward with confidence.
This approach creates dogs who are:
● More focused and engaged
● More resilient in everyday situations
● Easier to live with
● And more connected to their owners
Because lasting change doesn’t come from quick fixes; It comes from clear communication and thoughtful training.

It was lovely as a small class for puppies and met some lovely people xPosted on Google Tilly DaviesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have had such a lovely experience training with Martina. She’s patient and understanding and always ready to help with individual needs. The training is practical, and we always use everything we learn. My Labrador puppy is definitely a more confident and well-adjusted dog because of it!Posted on Google Traceyjayne LewisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Joined the puppy class to get socialisation skills for my puppy, have enjoyed the follow up videos after each session for your weekly routine practice at home, If you put in the time and effort it pays off, Marta is very knowledgeable and really helpful and genuinely cares. I’m now going on with one - one fortnightly to continue our journey 🥰Posted on Google sue fowlerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Brilliant trainer. So knowledgeable and patient. Would recommend highly to anyone needing help with their dogPosted on Google Susanne TurnerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have just completed puppy and intermediate training with our 7 month fox red Labrador Meg. Martina has the patience of a saint which was much needed with my husband and I. We are now going to start the advanced class and although it’s ongoing training for both of us we are all benefiting from Martina ‘s calm way of lessons. We highly recommend her services Sue and John TurnerPosted on Google AliceTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend Martina. I asked Martina for help 2 years ago after I rescued a Belgian Malinois who was very reactive towards dogs. We are now in Martina’s advanced class always learning something new. The dogs have great fun and so do the humans 🙂Posted on Google Nina DaviesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Martina is the most wonderful dog trainer! Her deliberately small classes makes it so personal you feel like you’re having private sessions with the benefit of a few other dogs for exposure. No question is too much for her. And the way she speaks to the dogs shows she really loves them and what she does. She is the best!!Posted on Google Sadie BrayTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From the very first point of contact with Martina she made me feel at ease, we had a video consultation to see which options would best suit Angus! We decided on 1:1 sessions for 8 weeks! Martina is very knowledgeable and would answer all questions and would explain everything throughly while demonstrating during our 1:1 time. Angus really loved his sessions (so did I) and to help him Martina would also bring her own dogs along to help! After a session, Martina would send me videos with a detailed description with what we had covered and what to continue with until our next 1:1, which I found very useful. Martina would keep in contact and I was able to send her video updates of how we were getting on. Each week I could see the difference our sessions were having! Myself and Angus are very sad that our time with Martina has ended but I can not thank her enough for all of the support she has given us! If you are needing a trainer Martina is the one. I would highly recommend Martina ~ Clear Minds Dog Training ❤️
