I'm Sheila Smith, and as the proud owner of Take My Lead, Animal Care Services, my heart is filled with immense joy and passion for providing love and care to our furry friends.
After years of successful entrepreneurship, I’ve decided to embark on a heartfelt journey, fueled by my enduring love for animals – not just horses but also our loyal canine companions. Formerly serving as the Northamptonshire County Chairman of the British Horse Society, my connection to the local equestrian community runs deep. Since 1965, I’ve been immersed in the world of horses, considering myself an enthusiastic amateur rider with a genuine passion for equine companionship.
In addition to my equine pursuits, I share an equally profound love for dogs. As a seasoned dog walker and caregiver, I understand the unique needs and joys that come with our furry friends. Whether it’s a playful pup or a majestic horse, I tailor each experience to meet their individual needs.
