Course Curriculum
Aleksandra Borawska
Hi, I'm Aleks!
I help people with crazy, lovable, sassy young spaniels, who want to share a happy, fun-packed and harmonious life.
I teach them the skills they need to be able to bring their dog to more fun places, without stress.
I help them decipher their adolescent spaniel, and work with, rather than against their nature.
I am a co-founder of Scurry Dog, a dog sport inspired by spaniels and developed for all active pets who want to play gundog games without bangs, guns and birds.
I'm an accredited dog training instructor with IMDT (Institute of Modern Dog Trainers), a former Mantrailing UK instructor and a UK College of Scent Dogs instructor.
I've got 13 years of intensive practical experience in training dogs, teaching dog owners and canine behaviour modification, with thousands of happy clients and successful stories.
Outside work, my life is all about dogs, fun training projects and outdoor adventures and voracious learning. Whenever possible, shared with friends and their dogs.
I live in the breath-taking Afan Valley in South Wales with my 5 dogs, including a working Cocker, Springer Spaniel, a Labrador Retriever, a Collie mix and a Staffordshire Bull Terrier. We train and compete in several dog disciplines, including Scurry Dog, scent detection, competition obedience, working gundog tests and GRC/Canine Athletics. In winter, during the shooting season, we're part of the beating team on two local shoots.
