Rescue dogs require a unique approach.
Fear of people, incredibly high prey drive, aggression towards other dogs, guarding of people, places & food are just some of the challenges you may be facing. Dealing with them can sometimes also be extremely challenging too. The good news is with the right approach, some understanding and lots of patience, you can help your dog.
Working with a dog trainer who has long-standing experience working with rescue dogs is imperative to being able to achieve results. Rescue dogs can be harder to train due to their past experience so enlisting a qualified, rescue specialist such as myself that can call upon years of experience is incredibly useful in achieving stress-free results.
About Me
Many overseas rescue owners find themselves struggling to understand their dog’s behaviour. Street dogs often think & react differently to UK dogs, and what may look like “bad behaviour” is often just their way of coping in a world that feels unfamiliar. Without the right support, this can leave owners feeling confused, frustrated or doubting whether they’re doing the right thing for their dog.
I realised that overseas rescue dogs need a different approach from the methods that usually work with UK dogs. This led me to study with Meesh Masters (The Dog’s Point of View), learning about overseas street dogs & their quirky ways. In 2022, I completed my studies & became a Romanian Rescue Pro Trainer.
Today, I offer services designed specifically for overseas rescues & their humans, helping dogs adjust to a new way of life & giving owners the understanding they need to support their dog’s unique behaviour.

Client Review
"Would highly recommend Buttons & Leash!"
"We chose Anthony for 1-1 training for our Romanian rescue puppy, Lola. We were first time dog owners and Anthony's calm and no-nonsense approach was really great for helping us through the anxieties which come with that. Lola's gone from a timid dog who wouldn't go into the garden, let alone a walk, to a happy confident (but still wary!) dog with lots of friends and a great relationship with one of the cats - still working on the other one!
