A chat with Viki from @Vikijones33 one of our Paws@brooklyn ambassadors!

Hello Viki, please can you tell us all about yourself and your dogs? Have you always had dogs? 

Hi, so I grew up with dogs, my parents had golden retrievers, though they were family pets. I was more into horses at the time than the dogs so didn’t really get involved in any training. We got our first spaniel, Chilli about 11.5 years ago.

What made you start Gundog training?

I didn’t really know about gundog training when we got Chilli, but was adamant, that even though I wasn’t going to work Deja, I wanted to do gundog training for breed enrichment. And I’m hooked. Not every day is a good day, but you still learn on the not so good days too. When it all starts to click though!

How long have you been a Paws@brooklyn ambassador and what is it like being an ambassador for Paws?

I’m a relatively new Paws@brooklyn ambassador, about 8 months. The team are so supportive and inclusive and I love all the products.

What is your favourite time of the year with the dogs?

When it’s not too muddy!!

What is your favourite Paws@brooklyn product/ products?

I think I might be addicted to the dummies, especially the speedy dummies, and the soft touch dummies… just all of them! Oh, and the leads too!

What are your next plans with the dogs? It looks like they are doing great with the training! 

I’d love to keep developing and improving and would like to do working tests in the future. And hopefully get Tallie out on a shoot this coming season.
