I got my own dog when I was 8. From then on, my sole focus has been training, handling, and of course loving! My girl was a happy agility and obedience champion, not to mention a therapy dog. I am also skilled in basic grooming. Sometimes I find dogs easier to get along with than people. Even the most timid dogs I've watched ended up cuddling up to me on their own within the first night! I'm extremely patient with special needs dogs and dogs with rough pasts. I believe no dog is "bad" or untrainable. They just need the proper attention, love, patience, and understanding. From tiny to giant, I love them all. All clients I've had have always come home to happy, pretty, and tuckered out furry friends!
