Nini et Ollie

Nini & Ollie is a canine education and behaviour service run by Virginie, an educator and canine behaviourist based in Tabanac. She works with dogs and their owners across Gironde, and can travel to areas around Toulouse and Auch by quotation. Her approach is described as ethological, drawing on observation of dogs and their behaviour in social groups.

Rather than relying on repeated commands or coercion, Virginie aims to help dogs think through situations and find solutions, while teaching owners to better understand and communicate with their pets. Training is adapted to each dog and owner, with an emphasis on working considerately and supporting the dog’s wellbeing. Nini & Ollie offers tailored training packages, alongside mantrailing activities and bite-prevention services.

The website also presents testimonials from clients who describe support with education, socialisation, walks and behaviour concerns, as well as progress during individual and group sessions. Nini & Ollie’s work is focused on building a clearer, more positive relationship between dogs and the people who care for them
