# Partners in Paw
Partners in Paw is a specialist animal behaviour and dog training business based in Hoddesdon, owned and operated by Deanna Hammond. The company provides expert behavioural support and training for dogs and cats, drawing on Deanna's extensive qualifications including a BSc in Animal Behaviour and MSc in Clinical Animal Behaviour with Distinction. As a fully insured CCAB pre-certified animal behaviourist and IMDT-qualified dog trainer, Deanna brings a professional, science-based approach to resolving behavioural challenges.
The business serves pet owners throughout the area who are struggling with behavioural issues in their dogs or cats. Deanna's philosophy centres on understanding that each animal is unique and requires tailored guidance rather than one-size-fits-all solutions. With over 20 years of personal pet ownership, seven years working in boarding kennels and catteries, and ongoing remote work with international dog rescue charities, she possesses both practical experience and academic expertise.
What sets Partners in Paw apart is the combination of formal qualifications, professional accreditations (including DBS clearance and CPD-accredited canine first aid), and genuine passion for animal welfare. Deanna actively works with rescue dogs and supports adopters through partner charities, demonstrating her commitment to improving lives beyond commercial transactions. The business also benefits from Emma Bell, an experienced dog walker with 12 years in the field, extending the range of services available to clients. This integration of training, behaviour modification, and practical care support creates a comprehensive solution for pet owners.
