Qualifications & Achievements

Qualifications and Achievements

Since the business started in January 2018, I have attended many in-person workshops and completed many online courses, to help expand my knowledge and expertise within the pet care industry. One of the first qualifications I gained, was my Dog First Aid qualification, I attended my first ever in-person workshop in June of 2018 to learn all about Dog First Aid (DFA).

I have then carried on to enrol on to and complete various canine related qualifications, to help me to expand my knowledge, to provide the best services possible.

Starting Emily's Canine Crew in 2018 means I have been able to achieve a lot of memorable things including starting the business of course! I was also very lucky in 2019 to meet Professor Noel Fitzpatrick at the National Pet Show, and have him sign my copy of his latest book... I was so star struck that I wasn't able to actually speak a proper sentence to him; DOH!

I have also been very lucky to have been given the opportunity to write an article for Edition Dog Magazine; Issue 38. The article I wrote included Top Tips for staying safe in the Winter months whilst out on walks.

And most recently I have been fortunate to meet with the 1st Burbage Girl Guides group, and talk to them about Emily's Canine Crew and how much Animal Welfare is involved within my role. It was a lovely evening talking with the Guides, and I am very thankful for the opportunity.
