Introducing Ben
A picture of Ben in 2002 and follow up pictures of him at work in 2005- 2008 he loves helping. Ben came to us in 2002 after the sad loss of Khan. He had a lot to live up to but is a brilliant teaching dog. He police's a situation and seems to have that uncanny knack of knowing when to interrupt "rude" behaviour from another dog. He loves new puppies but is just as happy in with the "body slammers". Having taught Carol so much, he is always glad to be with his friends and enjoy a good romp through the woods, chasing squirrels and rabbits. Cant quite work out where they disappear to though! Ben is now 8.
Katie
Here is Katie with the rest of the team waiting to start work. Although Katie can be a little unpredictable she is learning to trust and is wonderful with the young puppies. Her favorite place is on Carol's bed resting!! She is now 8 - and is still a wonderful cuddle. Khan & Freya
Two of Carol's beloved dogs, now sadly passed away, but their legacy lives on - read their story's. Khan, a Vigil Rescue dog and epilepsy sufferer and Freya who survived major spinal surgery and went on to help many other dogs. Brook
Brook is Stuart's boy. He is now 8 years old and another Vigil Rescue dog. He loves nothing but to charge off with his mates into the undergrowth after anything he can find. A true "bodyslammer" - he loves teaching other dogs not to bite too hard - a look is enough - but loves kids and puppies just as much. He is now our lead swimming club manager! Zytta
Zytta is Stuart's second dog. She is 8 years old and looks like a wolf with her unusual markings and greenish grey eyes. She's an RSPCA rescue dog. She is our true teacher dog - she is brilliant at puppy class but woe betide any dog try to mount her or is "rude". One look from her and the dog runs off back to its owner. Tai and Kizzy
Here is Caroline our senior instructor with her two dogs who are seen at our training mornings. Both dogs are a pleasure to be around and enjoying helping with all the dogs especially the puppies. They have had one lovely litter of puppies of their own some of whom we have been pleased to help and train.
