Dog First Aid Cheshire

Lorraine is our Franchisee for Cheshire. Lorraine grew up with many pets, and having rescued dogs through the years, is now “Mum” to Ty, a Staffy/Rhodesian Ridgeback cross.

Lorraine and partner Chris wanted him to feel loved, safe and cared for. Looking into dog nutrition led them to buy their pet food business, followed by the opening of their pet shop, catering for cats, rabbits, small animals, wildlife, but mainly dogs and always with the pet’s welfare at mind.

While Chris worked full time on the businesses, Lorraine only ‘retired’ from her finance career (after 40 years) in January 2022.

After attending one of our courses, Lorraine knew that she wanted to add Dog First Aid to the couples’ other pet businesses.

Lorraine had experienced a canine choking incident, and last year, after spotting a strange lump, Ty was successfully treated for cancer, Lorraine feeling relieved she had spotted it so quickly.

Lorraine has now completed her comprehensive training, including training by members of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons. She knows that the right training can prevent that sense of panic most people experience in an emergency, but equally important the weekly health checks the course teaches could just help you spot an issue with your dog before it becomes too serious to deal with!

She looks forward to taking you on the Dog First Aid journey to CPD accreditation and the reassurance of being prepared.
