I’m Jules, a dog lover, outdoor enthusiast and proud owner of four dogs. Much of my life revolves around being outside with them. Nose and Paws Active grew from that love of adventure and a desire to create experiences that bring dogs and their humans closer together.

I believe dogs need more than a walk around the block. They thrive when they have opportunities to explore, use their brains, learn, work alongside us and simply enjoy being dogs. I also know that every dog and human is different, which is why I take a flexible, individual approach rather than expecting everyone to fit the same mould.

Whether we're heading out for an adventure, capturing a dog's personality through photography or exploring natural wellbeing, my aim is always the same: to create positive experiences, build confidence and celebrate the unique relationship between dogs and their people.

Nose and Paws Active is about getting outside, trying something new and making memories with your dog.

As a Canicross Coach and one of the first nine coaches in the world, I’m passionate about getting dogs and their humans moving, exploring and having fun. With a degree in Sports and Outdoor Education and over 25 years of teaching experience, I adapt my coaching to build confidence in dogs and humans. From kit fitting and trail skills to practical guidance, I’ll help you feel confident on your Canicross and Canihike adventures.

Combining years of experience as a professional RAF photographer with my work as a National Trust volunteer photographer, I bring an eye for detail, strong composition and the patience needed to capture dogs naturally. From flying paws and muddy adventures to mid-stride action and quiet moments of connection, I use high-speed photography to capture your dog’s personality in the natural environment.

As a Certified Animal Aromatherapist, with training from veterinarian Dr Janet Roarke, I bring specialist knowledge of using natural wellbeing approaches safely around dogs. Combined with carefully selected, high-quality products, ongoing support plus access to our wider team's online classes and resources, our team help dogs and their humans explore natural wellbeing confidently and responsibly.

Reliable coaching. Real experience. Expert knowledge.
