Founded by Catherine Griffin one of three certified dog behaviour consultants in Ireland with the International Association of Animal Behaviour Consultants and a founding member of the Irish Veterinary Behaviour Association. With 15 years experience in the industry, Catherine moved to Cork after working with Europe’s largest Dog Welfare Organisation to start an organization that put the owner as well as the dog at the centre of the Snout experience.
One of the other three certified consultants in Ireland is Claire Quinlan who operates our Kerry branch, bringing certified behaviour support to the Kingdom and beyond. More recently, we brough Gillian Cooke to our team, a certified trainer who supports our Cork clients on their training journeys.
Whilst we work in all aspects of training and behaviour, our expertise are with aggression and anxiety cases, supporting dogs to live fulfilled, enriched and supported lives. Our goal is to empower dog owners with education, knowledge and skills to promote a happy, harmonious relationship at both ends of the lead. We work closely with other experts in the field of veterinary, physio and nutrition to provide a complete care package for your dog’s needs.
First and foremost, Snout and About are passionate about people who love dogs. Our mission is to generate awareness and share our expertise to nurture the very special and unique bond only you and your dog share.
From puppy training to separation anxiety, reactivity to aggression and stereotypic behaviours, you’ve got this and we’ve got your back.
