Dogs and animals have been my passion for as long as I can remember. I train dogs professionally in obedience, agility, and tricks. I also work in a canine rehab center doing hydrotherapy. My personal dogs hold titles in agility, obedience, rally, nosework and trick training in different organizations. I have experience in dock diving, barn hunt, and lure coursing. I currently am a judge in training. Looking forward to my first trial in AKC FastCat.
45 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
