About Toni
Toni has worked with domesticated and wild canids since 1989. After a successful career with the Guide Dogs for the Blind Association, she started her own business as a Tellington TTouch Companion Animal Practitioner in 2000 after being one of the first people to qualify in the UK.
Now over three decades later she is a TTouch Companion Animal Instructor and Animal Behaviourist. She has written and teaches several Applied TTouch courses available through the online learning platform. She works with clients locally and teaches nationwide and internationally online. Toni is also the referring behaviourist for the Oxfordshire Animal Sanctuary where her skills in TTouch and behaviour are invaluable for helping the traumatised animals that find themselves in the sanctuary’s care.
She is the author and co-author of eight books and writes for Your Dog Magazine in the UK.
She lives in South Oxfordshire, England, and sees clients for face-to-face consults in South Oxfordshire, South Buckinghamshire, and parts of Berkshire.
