Growing up, my 100 pound German Shepard, Champ, was my absolute best friend. In fact, he was my first best friend ever. When I was born, he was 3 years old and protected me unwaveringly. We spent every day together going to the park, playing in the yard, and taking naps after I got home from school. He passed away when I was 12, but remains an inspiration to my work every day. I have over 5 years of experience working with animals, specifically dogs. I am passionate about creating a safe, disciplined, fun, and loving environment for the dogs in my care. I will always have their best interest at heart and work my hardest to build special bonds with each and every dog I work with.
