My journey with PACT has been transformative.
A few weeks before I learned I’d been awarded the CTIC Scholarship, I said goodbye and offered my biggest thank you to my beloved canine companion, Diesel, after nearly 13 years together.
PACT’s hybrid course arrived at exactly the right moment. It provided structure and guidance whilst also creating space for rebuilding, reflection and growth. Each element, from fieldwork to shadowing, became an opportunity to turn knowledge into practice and move closer to becoming the trainer and person I aspire to be.
The shadowing and coaching segments of PACT's CTIC course opened up some incredible opportunities. I am deeply grateful to Dogs Trust Harefield, Rachel Rodgers and Marilyn Gilchrist (The Canine School of Trailing) for their invaluable expertise, encouragement and the profound impact they have had on my development as a trainer.
To the PACT Team, thank you for recognising my potential, guiding with kindness and creating a community where learning feels human, joyful and full of heart. My biggest hug and thanks go to you all.
This journey has been transformative. It has reminded me that growth isn’t only about acquiring skills; it’s about deepening connection, compassion and joy.
My Diesel continues to appear in many ways, especially when I’m working with my canine clients and their guardians, making me smile, laugh and sometimes face-palm. His spirit feels woven into everything I do.
