About Our Dog Show Judges

Davey Atkinson
Axe Valley Dog Training
Davey has been working with dogs and their humans since 2018, using kind, science-based training that’s fun and practical. He’s a Clever Dog Company Method Licensed Trainer, which means he was trained and mentored by behaviour expert Sarah Whitehead.
At the Axe Vale Show, He will be running live scentwork demos – so if you’ve ever wondered what your dog’s nose is truly capable of (spoiler: a lot), come and take a look. It’s fun, fascinating, and a brilliant way to tire out even the busiest of dogs.
