About the Author

Karen Davison grew up in Bedfordshire, England. She has been both an avid reader and a lover of animals since early childhood. When she was eight, she got her first dog Scamp, whose great character started Karen's lifelong devotion to dogs. 

Since qualifying in Canine Psychology in 2001, she has worked as a professional dog trainer and canine behaviourist. She went on to study Wolf Ecology in 2009 and was lucky enough to spend time with wolves at the UK Wolf Conservation Trust in Reading. 

Her first publication, The Perfect Companion: Understanding, Training and Bonding with your Dog, a comprehensive guide to canine psychology, training and problem solving, was published in June 2012 and won an IndiePENdants' award for quality. Since then she has published The Complete Guide to House Training Puppies and Dogs, Companion Huskies: Understanding, Training and Bonding with your Dog, and two Fun Reads for Dog Lovers: It Shouldn't Happen to a Dog Trainer and A Dog's Guide to Humans. She is in the process of developing the next title in the series 'A Dog's Guide to Cats' and having enormous fun doing it! 

After joining a local writers group, she has spread her author wings and is now writing poetry, and short stories. After taking a course in screenwriting she completed her first radio drama script, 'The Other Woman'. Karen is also working on her first fiction novel, which combines her love of writing, wolves and fantasy - Wolf Clan Rising which is due to be published 2017.

Karen resides in a country cottage on the west coast of Ireland, drawing inspiration for her writing from the peace and beauty of her surroundings where she shares her life with her husband, two daughters and nine special needs pets. Her seven rescue dogs and two rescue cats have a mixture of emotional, behavioural and physical disabilities

One of Karen's favourite sayings: 'Saving one dog will not change the world, but surely for that one dog, the world will change forever.'
