Four Paws Committee
Claire Horsman
Members Representative
In early 2018, when I was at desperation point with my beautiful, but misunderstood rescue GSD, Simba, we met Grahame and Skeena walking along the river and having chatted for a while as we walked, I was convinced that we really should have Four Paws in our lives.
The trainers gave me the support, skills and confidence I needed to manage and train Simba, to get the best from him and allow him to be the dog he deserved to be, for which I shall be forever thankful.
Sadly, we lost Simba to a GDV at just 6 years old.
I returned to the club in spring 2023 with 4 month-old Cookie, a black GSD, who has now completed her Puppy, Bronze and Silver Kennel Club Good Citizen Dog Scheme awards and is working towards Gold.
I am delighted to have joined the Four Paws committee.
