It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Caroline Cowan, a beloved and highly respected figure in the canine community of South Wales. Caroline departed this world recently, leaving behind a legacy of compassion, expertise, and tireless dedication to the well-being of our four-legged friends.

Caroline was widely known for her exceptional skills as a dog behaviourist, earning the respect and admiration of countless pet owners throughout the region. Her passion for understanding and improving the lives of dogs led her to become a trusted resource for those seeking guidance in training and behaviour modification.

As a trustee of charitable organisations such as Friends of the Dogs (Wales) and Kim’s Home for Elderly and Abused Dogs, Caroline extended her commitment beyond individual consultations, working tirelessly to advocate for the welfare of dogs on a broader scale. Her contributions to these charities have had a lasting impact on the lives of countless animals in need.

Caroline’s compassion was particularly evident in her recent support for owners of XL Bullies, who faced increasing challenges due to evolving legislation. She spent her final months dedicating herself to offering guidance, empathy, and practical assistance to these owners, ensuring that they and their beloved pets received the care and understanding they deserved.

Caroline Cowan’s legacy extends far beyond her professional achievements; she leaves behind a community profoundly touched by her kindness, knowledge, and unwavering commitment to the well-being of dogs. Her passing is a loss that will be deeply felt, but her impact on the canine world will endure, a testament to a life well-lived in the service of others.

Our thoughts and condolences go out to Caroline’s family, friends, and the entire community she touched with her passion for dogs. May she rest in peace, surrounded by the gratitude of the countless lives she touched during her remarkable journey.

Caroline’s funeral took place on Tuesday 20th February at Thornhill Crematorium.
