behaviour shaping and training
A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME Bethany Nicholls is a dog and horse trainer covering
central Scotland and beyond. She started horse training prior to her first
degree on a yard where she was first introduced to Equitation Science, through
Jody Hartstone. After completing her BSc (hons) at Lincoln University she went
into veterinary diagnostics and research, continuing to expand her training
interests and techniques with her own dogs. In 2016 she moved to West Lothian
and became a trainer with a local training club, and in 2018 started her MSc in
clinical animal behaviour at Edinburgh University, specialising in Canine and
Equine. She has already achieved her PG Cert and is on track to gain PG Dip by
2020 and complete her MSc by 2021. She regularly attends conferences and CPD
outside of studying to continually improve her practical training knowledge and
repertoire.
