Faye's Review From June 2023 With Ettie
This was an excellent 2-day course and has given me the confidence as well as vital information needed to start my own dog walking business. Christine is a fantastic tutor, friendly and approachable - and, of course, highly knowledgeable on her subject. Her dogs were a real pleasure to be around, adding another dimension to the course. Thank you again and your lovely staff member - Kay.

Thank you Christine for the 2 days course. It has been very helpful and informative. Christine is lovely, friendly, and patient. She explained everything well and was happy to answer any questions you have. The dogs (course dogs) are sweet and well-behaved, their presence made the course more fun and enjoyable 🙂 Overall, I've learned a lot from this course.
