Mel Newton
(Norwich Area Puppy Training Advisor)
Mel started out coming to Breckland Dog Training with her Labrador Cooper, having been let down by early training solely focussed on food, Mel was struggling with lead work, general manners and obedience. After a number of 121s with Steve to get Cooper on the straight and narrow, Mel developed (what is turning into) an obsession with all things training and gundogs.
Mel has shadowed Steve on classes, 121's and training days, and has quickly become very knowledgeable on what you need to do at the beginning with your puppy to enable a more rounded dog in its adulthood.
Mel looks after the updating and compilation of our training manuals, as well as supporting new puppy owners in the Norwich area.
