Zoo animals to pet care
I have always loved animals. Always. Just didn’t know exactly what that could mean for me in terms of my career. I had always pictured me surrounded by animals at all times. I imagined it would be animals much larger and less cuddly than dogs. That’s when I found Alfie and fell in love. A cocker spaniel changed my life and I will not apologise for how corny that sounds.
At 18, I decided to learn more about the animal kingdom and immerse myself fully in it. Thats when I chose to do my undergraduate degree in Zoology. I graduated with a BSC in Zoology with First Class honours back in 2018. This included very varied topics, many of which support me in the day to day running of Green Wheel Dogs. Animal Behaviour and Welfare, Animal Health and Disease, Animal Anatomy and Physiology and Ecology. They really opened my eyes to the amazing world of animals and all it has to offer.
After graduating it took me a while to find my feet. In December of 2018 I bought my house in Stanground, Peterborough. Whilst working Part time I was taking in dogs for the weekends, sometimes using annual leave just to stay home and play with them. Then, in march 2020, I decided to make my dream happen. I want to work with animals every day, I want to spend as much time with my Alfie and I want to make sure that I can provide a lovely place for peoples dogs to have their very own vacations: Green Wheel Dogs is born.
