Clare Bradley
Clinical Animal Behaviour and RVN
Hi, I’m Clare, a qualified Pet Behaviourist and the founder of Talking Pet Behaviour (www.talkingpetbehaviour.co.uk). I help dedicated pet owners like you navigate the tricky world of behavioural challenges—whether you live with a barking dog, a nervous cat, or are simply feeling overwhelmed by your pet’s behaviour.
With over 22 years of experience as a Registered Veterinary Nurse and a Master’s in Companion Animal Behaviour Counselling, I bring both clinical and compassionate insight to every case. I work with both dogs and cats, but have a particular passion for supporting families whose pets are struggling with separation anxiety.
I also spent time working at the Oxford Cat Clinic, where I developed a deep understanding of feline behaviour and the unique challenges cat owners often face.
Alongside my behaviour work, I run Puppy School classes in Oxford for puppies aged 12–20 weeks. These fun, friendly classes use reward-based training to help puppies learn essential life skills in a safe and supportive environment—building confidence, good manners, and a strong bond with their owners from day one.
I offer behaviour consultations online and in person across Oxfordshire, blending science-led advice with everyday, realistic solutions that build confidence on both ends of the lead (or lap!).
