A DOG trainer will be donating all the takings from her next course to a charity dedicated to providing clean water to people in poorer parts of the world.
Sue Harper specialises in teaching dogs to ignore livestock. With the support of the Malvern Hills Conservators, she runs six-week courses in a field close to the Downs Malvern College school in Colwall.
With her next course starting on Sunday, May 22, she saw a chance to support a cause close to her heart.
“This year, I intend to ask participants to give the £60 fee to Water Aid,” she said. “Having spent a month training dogs in a poor rural area of India, I have become very aware of the burden women bear in many areas of the world walking miles carrying water.”
For details or to enrol on the course, call 01684 568067 or e-mail sharper dogs@hotmail.co.uk.
