Meet Kamila
My name is Kamila, and I am the owner and founder at Kamila's Dog Training, based in Trent Vale, Stoke - on - Trent. I'm thrilled to share my passion for dogs and training with all of you. As a certified dog trainer, canine body language specialist, puppy training specialist, and canine reactivity specialist, I am dedicated to using positive training methods that prioritise the mental well-being of dogs.
​
As a dedicated dog trainer, I have developed a particular expertise in working with two remarkable groups: puppies and bull breeds. These incredible dogs have often been unfairly labeled as aggressive, but they hold a special place in my heart. I am passionate about supporting them to lead happier lives with their owners and helping them build positive relationships with other furry friends.
Puppies are at a crucial stage of their development, and early training is essential for shaping their behavior and instilling good habits. I take great joy in guiding these little bundles of energy, teaching them basic commands, proper socialization, and addressing any behavioral challenges they may face. By setting a strong foundation during their formative months, we can pave the way for a lifetime of obedience and happiness.
Bull breeds, such as Bulldogs, Pit Bulls, and Staffordshire Terriers, often face unfair stereotypes due to their strong physical presence. However, beneath their tough exteriors, these breeds possess a tremendous amount of loyalty, love, and potential. My mission is to break down these misconceptions and help these dogs thrive in a world that may misunderstand them. Through patient and compassionate training, I work towards building trust, improving their behavior, and fostering positive interactions with humans and other animals.
While I have a deep passion for working with puppies and bull breeds, I also love working with dogs of all breeds. Each dog brings their own unique personality and challenges, and I find great fulfillment in helping every dog reach their full potential and live their best lives. From Chihuahuas to Retrievers and everything in between, I am committed to providing effective training and support to any dog in need.
​
Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I am a proud mother of two wonderful children and three fur babies: Luna, an American Bulldog X, Mellow, an American Bulldog X, and Sparta, an English Bull Terrier. Growing up in a small city in Poland, I encountered many stray dogs and felt a deep desire to help them. I would often take in stray dogs and care for them, which allowed me to learn firsthand about their behavior and body language and how they communicate their emotions in different environments.
During my experiences, I encountered dogs that were simply hungry and in need of care, but there were also breeds that had been unfairly stigmatised and were feared due to their perceived aggression. Even at a young age, I recognised signs of anxiety in these dogs and believed that with patience and support, they could overcome their challenges.
Working with these dogs as a child and earning their trust to help them overcome their anxieties solidified my decision to become a dog trainer. I wanted to educate others and show them that what may appear as aggression is often a stress reaction that can be addressed with time, patience, care, and guidance.
While I initially gained experience by working alongside my dad, who shared his knowledge of dog training, I realised that I didn't always agree with his methods. This realisation prompted me to further study the body language of dogs and the importance of positive reinforcement. I wanted to cultivate an approach that focused on building trust and fostering positive relationships between dogs and their owners.
I feel incredibly fortunate that a childhood hobby has transformed into a fulfilling career. It has allowed me to leave my previous job and follow my dreams of helping and supporting dogs to become the best versions of themselves.
