Rachel is passionate about her role as a Qualified Veterinary Nurse and the importance of this Qualification in teaching Canine First Aid, especially to Pet Professionals.

Rachel's continued amazing feedback for her courses speaks for itself.

'I find that people who live what they teach are more inspirational and more interesting teachers. I dare say many can teach Canine First Aid basics but what makes it special is the knowledge of those peculiar cases that only veterinary professionals will see. The deeper the knowledge and wider the first-hand experience the more interesting and informative the teaching is. Also, I didn't just pick you for that - it was more about your whole ethical outlook to animals and you having a broad-minded approach to everyone else's area of speciality. I want the clients and dogs taking part in my workshops to be handled with respect and that requires the workshop teacher to believe in that approach - you tick all the boxes xx
