I, and my dog, Ruby, have been trailing with Pettrailer UK for nearly 3 years. Trailing is undoubtedly the best thing I have ever done. The ability to work as a team with your dog to find missing animals or people is very rewarding. Becky is so enthusiastic about trailing, eagerly imparting her vast knowledge and experience to facilitate the formation of a unique and very special bond between dog and handler. Her calmness and patience allows even the most timid, or the most reactive of dogs to enjoy the task at hand, which in turn gives enormous satisfaction to their handlers.
Having passed two basic assessments and the advanced assessment, “team Ruby” is now looking forward to becoming professionally qualified during the next year.
The camaraderie and friendships I have made through trailing are second to none. As a retiree, I owe much to Becky, who has given me a new lease of life, which I can now enjoy with my best four legged friend, as a member of the Pettrailer ‘family’. Thank you Bex, keep it up!
