About Me

Emma Franklin – Separation Anxiety Pro Behaviour Consultant

My journey into dog behaviour, and separation anxiety in particular, began with my own dog. Like so many owners, I found myself feeling frustrated, guilty, and overwhelmed every time I had to leave the house.

After spending countless hours searching for solutions online, I came across the work of Julie Naismith and her approach to helping dogs feel calm and safe when home alone. I began using her training techniques and, over time, saw a huge shift in my own dog’s behaviour and wellbeing.

Inspired by this success, I wanted to understand why separation anxiety is such a common struggle for dogs, and how we can resolve it in a kind, evidence-based way. I went on to train directly with Julie Naismith and qualified as a Separation Anxiety Pro Behaviour Consultant.

Now, with both professional expertise and lived experience, I help dedicated dog owners work through this challenge with patience, structure, and support. If your dog is struggling with being alone, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.
