A business-savvy full-time nurse has created her own vegan-friendly dog treat business. Melissa Nelson was inspired to set up the company due to her love for her Pekingese pooch called Coco.
Her business Paws by Coco sells a range of healthy vegan dog treats, as well as grooming products. The 27-year-old also hopes to venture into selling her own-brand harness, leads, collars and poo bags.
Melissa loves her day job, where she works as a community nurse. This involves visiting patients' homes to provide them with the best care possible.
