Who's looking after your pets?

Picture
Dom Goutorbe
Owner
Dom was born and bred on the premises.  Whilst growing up he regularly helped with the pets after school and at weekends.  He is better known for his success with his own dogs (mainly English Setters), in which he has bred or owned over 15 UK Show Champions as well as trained and handled 7 UK Field Trial Champions.  The Kennel Club recognises him as both a Championship Show judge and also an A-Panel Field Trial Judge. 

Dom has also owned and trained Labradors, English Springer Spaniels and Pointers, all to a very high standard.  He is the President of the English Setter Club and often gives advice on gundog training in the press.  The 'Fieldsports' magazine named him as one of the UK's Gundog Guru's.

Louise
Louise has worked at 'Upperwood' for over 14 years.  You can't fail to like her bubbly outgoing personality.  She knows many of the regular guests as though they were her own and recognises many of the owners just from hearing their voices.  Louise is the keenest of animal lovers and her dog 'Sherlock' can often be seen standing guard at the kennel entrance. 

​ Louise has a certificate in Canine Aggression & Rehabilitation and she is phenomenal at bringing even the most nervous of dogs and cats out of their shell.  She also has training in both animal and human First Aid, Infection Control & Prevention, as well as Covid-19 Infection Control and Prevention.   If there was a qualification in power walking dogs, then Louise would have a degree in it!

My 2 terriers come here regularly and are always keen to trot in. The staff are friendly and genuinely seem to love what they do. I have been using Upperwood for about 9 years and I'm happy to recommend them.
