Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover with a pup of my own (Vinnie, a 50-lb shepherd mix). I have been a dog owner and rescue enthusiast since we adopted Vinnie in 2011. I am a calm, patient and positive caregiver who is well practiced in reward-based dog training. I believe that different dogs deserve different care. I work well with dogs who are already leash trained and am happy to take a slow or a brisk pace - whatever your pup prefers! Working with a rescue dog has taught me a lot about patience and that it’s a process to develop and maintain good behaviors. I have also volunteered with KC PAWS and GPSPCA organizations since rescuing Vinnie. I can't wait to meet your pet!
