Conor Dwyer

Conor Dwyer has more than 30 years of experience around dogs, including professional-level licensed breeding and training, ownership and rehoming. After a back injury moved him away from hands-on training, he turned that experience into practical writing for dog owners. He is the author of Barking Up the Right Tree: A Real Dog Owner’s Handbook.

Conor’s approach is practical and honest: understand the dog in front of you, protect welfare and public safety, and be willing to ask for qualified help. Canine Maverick covers breed characteristics, exercise, mental stimulation, training, health awareness, rescue, products and the ordinary realities owners face.

His articles are educational and do not replace veterinary, clinical behaviour or legal advice.
