A borough dog walker who has his own business has won the Made in Bury Weekly £2,000 Draw.
Ben Bethell, who is also a canine behaviourist, scooped the prize with ticket number 22270.
He signed up to the draw in April 2022, ordering two tickets, backing it to help start-up businesses.
In September last year, Ben, a dog walker in Radcliffe, joined the Made In Bury Business Academy with his business Doggy Dude, which the draw supports.
He graduated from the academy in June.
His work as a canine behaviourist specialises in helping dogs with anxiety, using positive reinforcement techniques.
When Ben was told he won the draw, he was "thrilled" and said he will be spending his winnings by reinvesting it back into his business by adding new Doggy Dude signage to his work van.
