After 31 years working in mixed veterinary practice as an assistant, partner, and then single proprietor, I have now ‘passed the reins’ to others and am working on a part-time basis. My spare time is spent realising my lifelong dream as a small time farmer, managing Wiltshire Horn sheep, Guernsey and Shetland cattle and assorted chicken. Whether vetting or farming, working with animals has provided both the ‘highest of the highs’ and the ‘lowest of the lows’, and I am very fortunate in all they have given me; long may it continue. | ||||

She has a particular interest in animal behaviour, and gained the Coape diploma in Companion Animal Behaviour and Training in 2000, enabling her to carry out behaviour consultations within the practice. In her spare time, Jackie competes with her own border collies in agility, sheepdog trials and the show ring, and regularly judges at breed and agility shows . She also keeps sheep and hens on a smallholding, and tries to grow vegetables but finds that the rabbits usually get there first! |
