Donation protected
Hi my name is Tony Tregenza,I have PTSD and anxiety for which I am almost through with EMDR therapy and counciling.
I run a dog walking business 'Canine Care Dog Walking' wallasey wirral.
Dogs are my passion and have helped towards my recovery.
I started this business after being homeless and losing all my family apart from my little brother.
I have always worked and paid my way!
I managed to get a flat , I had nothing but an air bed and a bag of clothes, soon after the loss of little brother in 2015 I made myself live again, making myself go for walks every day, meeting my now fiancee and learning to trust people again,.
I went out to work 14 hour shifts at the weekend and during the week started a dog walking business.
I met my partner Alison and have now puchased our home and gotten engaged.
The business is hard to make any money with so many people now providing dog walking services.
My passion and saving grace has been my dogs, I wish to accomplish my goal of completing a qualification in canine behaviour with the Cambridge institute of canine behaviour, an 18 month course,Clinical Canine Behaviour Practitioner & Trainer, Fast Track Mentor Programme
this will enable me to be recognised by the professional bodies in canine behaviour.
As such becoming a canine behaviourist.
I hope to eventually start a charity as part of the business helping people with PTSD and children with autism and ADHD.
I can't afford the cost of the course and am meeting with the chamber of commerce, in the hope they can help grow my business, I really don't know were else to turn.
Unfortunately the course provider is not registered for the advanced student loan scheme.
The provider have now offered to extend the payment period to help me although I still need a deposit of £1500, I have been accepted for rhe course and start in September 2024 pending payment of a deposit, thankyou to everyone who has donated, this is such a big help.
