I've done her course and it was fabulous, easy to follow and lots of opportunities to practice on her lovely patient dogs. Highly recommended to do whether you just want to do it as a pet owner or a professional, and get a recognised qualification if you want.


Yvonne Bedson, October 2023

Her courses are informative, clear and friendly

Rachel provides a fantastic, high-quality First Aid Course with practical experience. I learnt a great deal during the course, with many things that will stay with me forever. I feel much better equipped to handle First Aid situations now. Thank you Rachel!


Claire Sharkey, October 2023

I have received training from Rachel twice so far, and have booked her again for my next refresher - I wouldn't get anyone else! Rachel is so easy to understand, and delivers her training clearly and knowledgeably.

We did a first aid course with her last year and it was amazing.

So informative

Will be rebooking


Dawn Ash-Bunting, October 2023

Very professional and friendly with up to date knowledge and experience.


Gemma Davis, October 2023

Absolutely amazing. Best 1st aid course I go to. Nothing is ever to much for Rachel to explain if you don't understand somthing, and all the things she had done throughout her career to help animals, definitely an inspiration to many people.


Sara Moreton, October 2023

A very professional and personal training experience.


Teresa Ware, October 2023

I went to one of Rachels First Aid courses sone time ago. Hugely informative and practical, so much immediate first aid is similar to that with humans and in the same way, if I saw a dog which needed immediate first aid before going to the vets I would have the confidence to do it. Rachel also does a huge amount of lecturing, and assisting in countries where there are volunteers who want to help but do not have the knowledge, so helping the communities and their animals.


Adele Robinson, October 2023

Her courses have made me and others professionals in practice and I think they should be the standard for anyone starting up a pet service as part of continuing education for the best possible outcome of a service for animals


Natalie Winfield-Biesty, October 2023

Excellent course, very informative and very well presented.


Peta Brandwood, October 2023

Rachel’s Canine 1st Aid courses are so informative and also done on a practical level too so you get to practice techniques that you might need in an emergency. Great course and delivered in a ‘user-friendly’ way. Brilliant!

I've attended Rachel's canine first aid course, she was brilliant, friendly and I learnt so much. Also like her Facebook page for more useful information and tips. Fully recommend Rachel 100%


Becky Clarke, October 2023

Rachel provides a superb workshop showing not only theory but practical elements of canine first aid. It’s reassuring knowing that Rachel also has hands on experience in canine first aid through her many years in veterinary clinics.

As a dog walker you want to know that you are learning from the best to ensure that should anything happen whilst the dogs are in our care we can be prepared for various scenarios thanks to Rachel’s course.
