Meet the Team

ESZTER AND GRAHAM

owners

We’re Eszter and Graham, founders of Quality Chops and devoted owners of two Hungarian Vizslas, Marvin and Bobby. What started as a personal journey with our first dog, Marvin, quickly grew into a lasting passion for dog training and care.

Eszter

Eszter is the head trainer at Quality Chops, leading the training approach and working closely with both dogs and their owners to build calm, well-balanced behaviour. She also plays a key role in coaching and developing the team, ensuring a consistent, thoughtful approach across all sessions. Eszter is currently on maternity leave but remains closely connected to the direction and ethos of the business.

Graham

Graham previously worked as an operations director, bringing with him extensive experience in logistics, systems, and business management. At Quality Chops, he ensures everything runs smoothly behind the scenes, from day-to-day operations to long-term planning. His structured approach helps create a safe, consistent, and well-organised environment for both dogs and their owners.

The story

The idea for Quality Chops came from our own experience. When we couldn’t find a local environment that offered structured, safe, and enriching care for Marvin, we decided to build it ourselves. Our aim has always been simple, to create a space where dogs are not just exercised, but truly understood, supported, and given the opportunity to learn, relax, and thrive.

Today, we offer a range of group classes, including puppy training, neutrality and obedience, and urban skills, alongside private one-to-one sessions. We also spend plenty of time out in real-world environments, ensuring every dog benefits from the right balance of exercise, structure, and socialisation.

Alongside our work, we’re proud to volunteer with Vizsla Rescue UK, Vizsla Welfare UK and Pets As Therapy, continuing to support dogs and their owners beyond our day-to-day training.

Marvin

Marvin, our first Vizsla, is the dog who sparked our love for training, adventure walks, and truly learning about dogs. He has a complex personality — sensitive and affectionate, but also needing clear boundaries and structure. His absolute favourite thing is swimming, which inspired us to start taking our boarding and daycare dogs to the pool too.

He constantly pushes us to be better handlers and motivates us to keep broadening our knowledge of dog behaviour.

Bobby

Bobby, Marvin’s brother, makes our team complete. He’s the one who keeps us laughing with his unique facial expressions and brings an incredible amount of joy to every day. He’s also the most engaging, eager-to-learn companion we could ask for.

Bobby is a certified Pets As Therapy dog, visiting hospitals and schools with us to bring comfort and smiles. He has also completed his Elite Level Detection Dog certification, and he now works as an assistance dog. His enthusiasm for learning and working continues to inspire us every day. He is the perfect stooge dog

dog trainer

Molly has a particular passion for gundog work which she continues to develop within her role.

She brings a calm, positive energy to the team and is committed to providing safe, structured, and enriching sessions for every dog in her care. Molly works closely with the Quality Chops ethos, making sure dogs are not only exercised, but supported, understood, and given opportunities to learn in a thoughtful way.

Molly has always had a genuine love for dogs of all types, from the more sensitive and shy, to the high-energy and bouncy, and takes the time to understand each dog as an individual.

Outside of work, she spends much of her time with her own dog, Rocco. Together they enjoy exploring new environments, continuing their training, and getting stuck into gundog activities, which further strengthens her practical skills and passion for training.

Molly and rocco

This is Rocco, my Black Labrador and best pal. Full of personality, he’s a classic foodie, always up for an adventure, and just as happy curled up for a cuddle on the sofa.

Our training journey started in August 2024 with the support of Eszter and Graham. Through consistency, patience, and teamwork, Rocco is now off lead, neutral, and thriving. More importantly, we’ve built a bond that’s stronger than I ever imagined.

Rocco is the reason I fell in love with dog training. Not just the skills, but the connection that comes from truly understanding your dog. He’s taught me how important it is to fulfil a dog’s natural instincts, whether through gundog work, structured training, or simply giving them the freedom to sniff, explore, and be a dog.

Emily and Fig

I have been working with dogs for around 5 years, having previously been working at a dog boarding kennels. Working at an all inclusive kennels that accepts dogs of all breeds and behavioural needs really opened up my eyes to the dog training world. Then 4 months ago I brought home my Labrador puppy Fig. Fig has really allowed me to lean into all things dogs and training, and I love learning new things with her and going on adventures.

When I'm not spending my time with dogs, I enjoy running and fitness, reading and going out for coffee and a sweet treat!

Some of you may have already seen Fig at group classes or cropping up on Molly's stories on some walks. She is a 6 months old Labrador. Fig is my first dog that isn't a family pet, and although adorable, she can be challenging!

Fig is eager to learn and has a high food drive, but she is also very social and is extremely confident. Her excitement and arousal around dogs is why we came along to our first QC neutrality class!
