I have lived with and loved dogs all of my life. When I turned 16, I got an Australian Shepherd puppy that made me love working with dogs even more. He has really made me think differently about what dogs can do, and what they bring to the family. I have worked as a positive reinforcement dog trainer for over five years now, and continue to practice what I learned with my own dogs. One of my favorite things is teaching dogs tricks that are both practical and fun, and helping families harness the potential every dog has to offer. I love caring for and working with dogs of all types and personalities. I have worked with many dogs over the past several years and always love coming up with innovative and creative ways to address each animal's needs.
