💜 Meet Dee
— Your Dog’s New Favourite Human
Hi, I’m Dee — balanced dog trainer, vet nurse, and the human behind Disaster to Delight.
I help real dogs and real people create calm, confident relationships through practical training, clear communication, and a deep respect for the dog’s mind.
With over a decade of animal industry experience (and two dogs of my own who taught me more than any textbook ever could), I work with families across South Australia to turn chaos into calm — without losing the joy of dog ownership.
