Wendy

Wendy is our awesome Client Manager and she will be your first port of call when making contact and will help you on your journey with us.

Wendy started her journey at Puppy Stars on 1st October back in 2012, shortly after completing Nick’s Puppy Foundation course with a very young Beanie, and she enjoyed the course so much that she wanted to be a part of Puppy Stars and now, here she is, 10 years later, still working incredibly hard behind the scenes to give clients the very best service possible.

 
Her hard work, compassion, dedication and professionalism has helped Puppy Stars flourish and become the successful, professional business that it is today.
 
She has a keen interest in behaviour and is also a fully qualified Reflexologist. Wendy has attended several seminars presented by Dr Ian Dunbar, Ken Ramirez and Dr Susan Friedman. Wendy has a Border Terrier called Beanie and a rescue cat called Taz.

Beanie

Beanie is the Office Manager's Assistant and along with Wendy, has also been with Puppy Stars since 2012. Beanie has recently just celebrated his 11th Birthday and he attended Nick's Puppy Stars Puppy Foundation class when he was just 8 weeks old, back in May 2012. He decided that he liked the classes so much, that he wanted to stay!

He is an assistant trainer and video star at Puppy Stars and can often be found demanding attention from anyone and everyone who comes to visit. He has a very keen interest in squirrels. 

Sky

Sky is now the senior member of the training team and has been with us since July 2020. She is always on the go and is an expert in dog behaviour. She is Nick's assistant trainer and video star at Puppy Stars.

Sky can often be found waist-deep in the most muddy puddle she can find, but oddly does not like going for walks in the rain! She has a very keen interest in sniffing and all things dog. 

Toro

This is Toro, a founding team member and Nick's wonderful DDB who sadly is no longer with us. Here he is staring in a TV Advert that can now be found on YouTube

Norman

Norman is the newest member of the team and has been with us since June 2023. He is always on the go and is becoming an expert in dog behaviour. Norman is a video star at Puppy Stars and has his own Facebook group for all his fans!

Norman can often be found annoying Sky and Beanie with his endless energy. He has a very keen interest in sniffing and all things dog, just like Sky.
