ABOUT SHARON BOLT...
From Two Tiny Terriers to Celebrity Dog Trainer 🐾 Sharon Bolt’s Journey
In 2004, my life took an unexpected turn — thanks to two tiny balls of fluff.
We’d just brought home two Parson Terrier puppies — brothers from the same litter. I was over the moon. Double the dogs meant double the joy… or so I thought.
The excitement didn’t last long. Trainer after trainer warned us:
“This is the worst-case scenario. Littermates will fight for the top dog position — it’ll get nasty. You’ll have to rehome one.”
My heart sank. I couldn’t believe it. We’d only just brought them home… and now I was being told to give one up?
I looked into their eyes, those two tiny, trusting faces, and said:
“You two are not going anywhere. Somehow, I’ll figure it out.”
I had no plan. No knowledge. Just a fierce determination to find a way to keep them both.
With no puppy classes available and nowhere to turn, I began studying dog psychology. I threw myself into understanding how dogs think.
I watched my two intently and how they communicated to each other.
I experimented. I made mistakes. I tried again.
Over time I learned to speak their language — to lead with calmness, confidence, and certainty.
Not dominance. Not shouting. Just simple, instinctive communication based on respect, trust and leadership.
As I applied what I was learning, something beautiful happened:
The boys responded. The chaos turned to calm.
They were happy. Balanced. Loving.
A spark had been lit inside me. I wanted to become a professional dog trainer in the UK… but at the time it felt impossible.
I had no big budget. I knew nothing about marketing or websites or how to grow a business.
But the universe had other plans.
One day, I heard BBC Radio 2 was looking for a dog expert to interview.
I didn’t hesitate — I pitched them.
Not once.
Not twice.
Three times.
I was not going to give up, this was an opportunity I was not going to miss.
I had no business. No following. No formal credentials.
But I did have a story. I had life experience. And I had a message that I knew could help people.
Eventually… they said yes.
Overnight, I became known as a dog training expert on BBC Radio 2 — a media breakthrough that transformed everything.
(Explore more of my media features.)
The BBC kept inviting me back.
I got high profile celebrity clients.
I started appearing on TV, radio, and in major publications.
I’ve now been featured in over 50 media outlets, received more than £2 million in free publicity, and have had a regular slot on BBC radio since 2008.
My passion became my profession — and today I’m recognised as celebrity dog trainer Sharon Bolt, trusted by dog owners, entrepreneurs, and the media worldwide.
My homegrown knowledge became a proven system.
And my two little terriers — the ones I was told to give up — became the best teachers I could’ve ever asked for.
They’re both in doggy heaven now, and I miss them every day. Their legacy lives on in every course I create, every trainer I support, and every dog whose life gets better because of what we do.
Today, we share our lives with Denzil, a rescue Staffy X who arrived with his own set of challenges.
He reminded me that every dog deserves patience, love, leadership and someone who believes in them regardless of what they’ve been through before.

I just wanted to say a big thank-you for training us and Nelly & Doris. We can’t believe the changes! Doris has gone from a hyper, barking, dog hating puppy, following me around everywhere, to a calm, dog liking puppy! Nelly has gone from a timid, nervous dog scared of paper (!) to be much more relaxed and friendly.
Jill & Leigh, London
Benji has become a different dog! He now sleeps peacefully in his cosy bed, eats his meals without stress, and rarely barks at cars or the doorbell. He’s calm, content, and no longer craves constant attention. Your training made a huge difference — thank you!
Angela Newman, Lewes
I just had to write to say thank you. Since your visit I have got my lovely dog, Bonnie, and my life back! Peace reigns! Your technique works like magic, it is a miracle! (and worth every penny!) I couldn’t be more pleased.
Rose Pattenden, Crawley Sussex
Sharon performed a miracle with my 2 dogs. I went from thinking I’d have to give one up — or both — because of their vicious fights, to having two calm, happy dogs I genuinely love and enjoy. Her amazing training methods stopped the aggression and brought peace back into our home.
Melissa Walters, Kent
Well! – I have two completely different dogs, we have gone from very serious fighting to two very balanced, obedient, and calm dogs! Your methods were incredibly simple to follow and slotted perfectly into our daily routine, but what a difference! As I am writing this I am watching the same two dogs who were previously fighting and drawing blood, rolling around on the floor playing together!
Nikki Relffe-Arnold, Copthorne, Sussex
After a few weeks of applying Sharon ’s methods, Henry and I are much more relaxed with each other and he has calmed down considerably. I would not hesitate to recommend Sharon Bolt to anyone struggling with a canine calamity. Money very well spent.
Vicky Townshend, Brighton Sussex
