Oxford, UK – 14 February 2026
Anthony Thomas, Founder of The Oxford Dog Training Company, has formally launched a professional mentorship programme designed to support dog trainers, canine behaviour practitioners, other professionals who work with dogs, and owners seeking structured development beyond traditional certification pathways.
With over a decade of hands-on experience working with complex behavioural cases, family dogs, and professional trainers, Thomas has increasingly been approached by industry peers seeking guidance, case consultation, and structured professional development. The mentorship programme formalises that demand into a focused offering for practitioners looking to refine both technical skill and professional identity.
The programme provides one-to-one mentorship sessions, case discussion frameworks, ethical decision-making support, and guidance on building sustainable, standards-driven practice models within the dog training industry.
“There is currently no universal framework guiding the development of dog trainers once they enter practice,” says Thomas. “Mentorship provides a structured environment where professionals can reflect critically, refine their thinking, and elevate the standard of care they offer clients and dogs.”
The mentorship programme is aimed at:
- Early-career trainers seeking structured guidance
- Established trainers navigating complex behavioural cases
- Professionals transitioning into higher-level behavioural work
- Trainers seeking to build sustainable, ethically grounded businesses
- Veterinary practice staff wanting to understand dog behaviour more
- Owners wishing to create a deeper bond with their dog
Unlike high-volume online courses, the programme focuses on depth over scale, offering limited placements to ensure personalised attention and rigorous discussion.
Thomas’s work on canine behaviour and professional development has been published across multiple international platforms, where he contributes to ongoing conversations about training philosophy, welfare, and the future of the profession.
The mentorship programme forms part of a broader commitment to raising professional standards within the dog training industry, particularly in areas where formal regulation remains limited.
Applications for the next intake are now open.
