I said yes! Wait, wait, wait………. I don’t mean that second all-important question 🤣💍
I mean remembering the time I said yes to that first all-important question when Katie asked me to become a Scentventure Guide 5 years ago. I’ve never said yes so quickly in my life 😂
Whilst I’d trained my own dogs, and friends’ dogs, for a few years prior, I genuinely had zero interest in entering dog training professionally before meeting Katie and learning about Scentventure.
It was honestly love at first sight with Scentventure. I loved what I achieved with it and wanted others to have their own Scentventure success. Scentventure isn’t just about the training, it’s also the learning beyond the training, like tonight’s masterclass on dogs’ body language. Learning like this is as vital as the training itself. It’s also about understanding that our dogs are family, and that often means the family needs support too. I love that Scentventure goes beyond the training.
Five years later, I’ve gone from the first Scentventure Guide to now Head Scentventure Guide, and I have to say, I’m incredibly lucky to work with an amazing international Scentventure team! Together, we make an amazing head training team 🙌
🥳So here’s to Scentventure! This 5-year celebration isn’t just a time to mark my growth, but also Scentventure’s. And of course, the queen of Scentventure’s success, Katie! Katie and Scentventure set a standard that made me want to enter the training world. You taught me the beauty and possibilities we can achieve by blending training, knowledge and care. Something I’m now getting to pass down to the new Guides in training.🧡
You also taught me to pace myself when bringing my MANY ideas to life 🤣, so I’m looking forward to bringing more to life in the next five years!
